Also, keep in mind that in MLT, I am currently adding a metadata
system. SVN shows the API in MltRepository.h. The metadata will be
available as a tree of Properties. In my working copy, I have
implemented a YAML Tiny parser in the Properties class to make it easy
to add the metadata to the modules (not required). Now, I am working
on the schema. There will be some influence from kdenlive, but not the
same. The advantage of having it in MLT is that modules that are
bridges to other systems like LADSPA and frei0r (forthcoming) can
register what they discover making a more dynamic system.
