yes, all of the effectTV filters
if we can get pix_effectTV half of it would be obsolete

but also
pdp_mgrid
pdp_cmap
pdp_ctrack
pdp_ascii
are essential

pdp_qt will be obsolete when we get either pix_film OR pix_movie or whatever to play audio directly from a movie without extra table banging [hopefully this exists somewhere]
pdp_frei0r is ESSENTIAL now as is pdp_freeframe

also from unauthorized, playlist~ a graphical playlist external and an updated version of cooled~

What is there exactly in PiDiP that people need so badly? The (IMHO
ugly) video filters from EffecTV? Or the streaming part?

In either case, the solution seems simple to me. PDP itself isn't really
being maintained AFAIK, and isn't completely cross-platform anyways, so
why not just implement what is needed from PiDiP in GEM?

If there is a (willfully) stubborn stone in the river, just fork and
move around it! And one less reason to put up with a certain person's
temper-tantrums later...
