[Bug 642320] [NEW] Remove use of melt

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

Now we are using melt to retrieve the list of transitions, codec and
formats.

It's a little "crappy" way to do things. We use a testing CLI interface
to mlt instead of using mlt directly.

It would be quicker and cleaner to directly access mlt, i made a demo
patch who takes me a few minutes to show that it's possible.

If doing so, we can remove the melt command entry in the preferences
window, user should not care of that ;)

Thanks.
