  30  *
  31  * \extends mlt_properties
  32  * The service is the base class for all of the interesting classes and
  33  * plugins for MLT. A service can have multiple inputs connections to
  34  * other services called its "producers" but only a single output to another
  35  * service called its "consumer." A service that has both producer and
  36  * consumer connections is called a filter. Any service can have zero or more
  37  * filters "attached" to it. We call any collection of services and their
  38  * connections a "service network," which is similar to what DirectShow calls
  39  * a filter graph or what gstreamer calls an element pipeline.

  44  * \properties \em _mlt_service_hidden a flag that indicates whether to hide the mlt_service
  45  * \properties \em mlt_service is the name of the implementation of the service
  46  * \properties \em resource is either the stream identifier or grandchild-class
  47  * \properties \em in when to start, what is started is service-specific
  48  * \properties \em out when to stop
  49  * \properties \em _filter_private Set this on a service to ensure that attached filters are handled privately.
  50  * See modules/core/filter_region.c and modules/core/filter_watermark.c for examples.
  51  * \properties \em disable Set this on a filter to disable it while keeping it in the object model.
  52  * \properties \em _profile stores the mlt_profile for a service
  53  * \properties \em _unique_id is a unique identifier
