Phonon High-level Capture API
Abstract
The goal of this project is to enable Phonon applications to access and display input devices, like webcams. The Phonon code-base is well designed and flexible, and apparently no major modifications are needed to the current API. The ease of use for the Phonon application developer is a priority. Features implemented in Phonon will be implemented in the Phonon-VLC back-end in parallel. Various device classes should be supported.
Information
The exam session lasts here most of June, so I won't be able to work at full capacity during this time (I hope I can achieve 50%-75% of the July work time).
If extra time remains, I will work on improving the overall quality of Phonon.
Timeline
The following timeline may be a bit optimistic, but I will try to respect it. It will be revised during the summer if neccessary. By revised I mean adding smaller tasks, not removing tasks or delaying.
