Please watch the forum for announcements about increased codec support
Maybe with the plans to integrate editshare with lightworks what I am about to say has already been internally discussed and a decision already made, but....
Is it possible to modularize the software? A frameserver (or similar "middleware" layer) taking care of codec support, and then a uniform interface to the editor? The idea could be using filesystem objects (script files, like avisynth, with a uniform "codec", or even virtual files, like AVFS).
I would like the idea to be able to update or upgrade the software only for the part that needs it (e.g., only the frameserver if only format support has changed). In addition, sharing could be taken care of through already existing services: those offered by the filesystem.
