Really good idea !!
Some time ago I tried to clean up the code and make it clearer.... but I gave 
up by lack of time...
Anyway, I would be happy if you would implement what I had in mind...
Currently we can send a preregistered session using a debug hack and it 
applies to all open webcams... I wanted to generalize the way to grab 
images... I mean, for each webcam session we could select the source of the 
image : either a file, a v4l device for linux, a DirectShow device for 
Windows and so on and make it in a way to be able to add easily another 
device class (we never know)...
If you could do in a such way, it could be great !! :d

P.S. I just remind, Youness tried to implement Farsight in aMsn so maybe you 
should wait for it since it should make the webcam management easier... I 
leave my mail content anyway since it can bring some ideas for future 
development ;)
But if I understood well, Farsight is to use with gstreamer... And gstreamer 
will be really powerful to let us do the things I exposed above...
