[FFmpeg-user] Would it be possible to load xattr-related media-files like a container?

[Peter B.]

Hi everyone :)

I'm working a lot with extended attributes on filesystems, and I'm amazed!

I was wondering if it would be possible for ffmpeg to load "related 
media-streams" as related objects:
Having a 0-Byte "videofile.aha":

   * video = /path/to/my_movie.h264
   * audio = ./my_movie-DE_AT.flac
   * audio.1 = my_movie-EN_GB.mp3
   * video.default = video
   * audio.default = audio.1
   * dc.title = "My Movie"
   * dc.creator = "..."
   * ...

Like an input demuxer which resolves the related objects and treats this 
like loading a container?

I imagine this to be quite fun (and useful actually).
One could then drag-and-drop to remux tracks, and right-click-edit 
metadata, I imagine.

Feedback greatly appreciated :)

Have a great day!
Peter
