Andraz,
sometimes your blatant cynicism really annoys me. It's not reinventing 
the wheel. The format I proposed is *simple* method of passing clip data.

As you well know, AAF is used for edit decision lists and therefore it's 
designed to hold multiple clip data and so on. It's also very complex to 
implement.

I don't know mxf, but I see there is an entire book on the subject, 
which would lead me to suspect it is also very complex and very much 
overkill for what I am suggesting (i.e. exchanging single clips with a 
minimal amount of overhead).

But still if you feel my suggestion should be put down without even 
discussion of the merits then that is your right. On the other hand, I 
think it would be great to be able to exchange clips between LiVES and 
cinelerra for example. You could implement this in half an hour. What 
are you afraid of ?

Regards,
Gabriel.
