The Problem that I see with video-jack when compared to audio-jack is the following. For an application like Ardour, audio-jack provides reliable access to high-end multi-channel audio hardware. Video-Jack however, in its current state does not help in getting high-end Video-IO-Boards to work with an application, it is only good for routing video between apps, which is nice, but imho not the most interesting part. I'd rather have a solid API to access Video-Capture (and Playback) boards in an universal and simple, yet reliable and performant way.
