GSoC Proposal : Video-clip applet in Amarok 2.X context-view

[Simon ESNEAULT]

Yes there's still a video applet in the playground, but it was a big hack
(not really an applet), used the full context view instead, and it just play
a video file which is in the playlist.

With this project I would like something different : When you'll play a
track, it will automatically retrieve url of corresponding video clip stream
for this song using data-engine, and offer the possibility to play them
directly in the context view. (hence stoping the currently playing track)

It won't offer a search box or something, but just play the corresponding
video-clip, so I consider it more like additional information for the
current track (like wikipedia, lyrics, etc)

Don't know if it's enough for a GSoC, but as i would like to implement it
anyway and i'm a student, why not trying :o)
