Inferno
hosted
video
drivers
for
Linux.
I
started
looking
at
this
in
the
context
of
OLPC,
but
it
seems
like
you
might
be
able
to
do
a
hosted
gstreamer
driver
for
Inferno
and
suppot
anything
gstreamer
does.
Although
perhaps
a
lower
level
of
support
(direct
Video4Linux)
should
be
considered.
I'm
thinking
mainly
here
of
supporting
web
cams
but
I
suppose
extensions
could
support
playback/etc.
