Currently, my problem is that if I create the clip from a westley file like:

<producer resource="video.mpg" ... skip_loop_filter="all" skip_frame="bidir">

It works.
But If I create a clip using Mlt++ like that:

Mlt::Producer producer(profile, "video.mpg");
producer.set("skip_loop_filter", "all");
producer.set("skip_frame", "bidir");

It doesn't work. Looks like those parameters need to be set at the beginning 
of clip creation, but I didn't succeed with Mlt++...

Yes, seems possible to do this in one week time.
