Those are not available through the MVCP protocol that the server uses.
However, you can use all of what MLT provides (minus consumer) through MLT
XML and load a MLT XML file as a clip in melted. A Melted "unit" is
basically just a MLT playlist and consumer, and only those object types are
addressable through the protocol.

Basically, that means it is not very suitable for use as a video switcher.
However, if you want to do simple stuff like realtime corrections and
overlay titles and graphics for automated playout, then you can generate
XML wrappers for your clips and load those instead.

There is really no MLT-based switcher that I am aware of, but you can take
a look at this simple python web-service script that is like a switcher:
