Not too shy to talk

I know I'm over-ambitious, but I'd love to see the work done on Emotion and on porting the ffmpeg core to Amiga, opened up into a proper multimedia framework API for Amiga. Amiga OS development stopped just before Apple got QuickTime and Windows got DirectShow, and while we got datatypes, and realtime library, mpega and camd, we never got a fully integrated framework for playing containerised source-independent, sink-independent multimedia streams with support for file sources, socket sources, stream sources, in-memory sources, progressive rendering, codec plugins, container format plugins, stream muxing/demuxing, hardware specific accelerated codecs etc etc.
The closest any amigoid platform has to this is the Reggae framework on MorphOS and even that is largely incomplete.
