Hi,

A RF noob here, what is a video filter? Does it filter video? Googling 'video filter' results in softwares that filter videos, and 'video filter rf' results in youtube videos explaining RF filter

In this case, we're discussing active op-amp style filters, but using specialized high-speed op-amps that are usually used for processing video
  analog baseband signals.

    friends of mine tried to do variable attenuation for powerline
    communication frontends using digipots, and: these can be very
    frequency-selective, even below 10 MHz. Maybe they were just using the
    wrong components.

    That sounds like a nice choice, given the existence of highspeed
    analog
    switches (which have gotten really affordable due to USB2, PCIe and
    USB3).

    I wonder if one could build an active filter with a (video?) opamp and
    make components in the feedback branches exchangeable, assuming the
    contribution of the analog switch compared to the effective component
    values at the frequencies of interest are negligible. Then again, this
    pretty much sounds like a non-integrated digipot, doesn't it?

    Best regards,
