I've long wanted to use the Entangle code to write a GIMP plugin for capturing images. As such plugins for other video/photo tools would be a fine idea too, if people are interested in writing such things. This is one of the reasons I've separated the code betweeen backend & frontend directories - the idea was we'd add other UIs in new directories, eg src/gimp-plugin or whatever, as an alternative to the current frontend. If the apps are GTK3 based it would even be possible to share some of the frontend code too - don't know what the OpenShot is written with myself. I don't know anything about OpenShot or what it expects from plugins, etc, but if someone wanted to try doing work in this area I'd be happy to hear / see proposals and/or code. Looks like OpenShot is GPLv3 so is license compatible with Entangle at least.
