10. A system comprising:
-
a plurality of sources; and
an interface, selectively coupled to the plurality of sources, to generate and implement a development project of processing chains, wherein the interface loads a processing chain for each of the plurality of media sources at a point during the execution of the project when the chain is required, and wherein the interface is configured to unload at least a subset of the chains when they are not required, the processing chains comprising a series of filters to process and render media content. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
