Yeah, BMediaTrack really is a good match for what I want to do, I've been
copying code from it anyway, or searching for inspiration at any rate.

I agree, and this sounds like an extra argument for a BMediaDevice class,
which might come in handy in future too.

I have a BDataIO for the extractor anyway, so I'll use that one directly. If
I've understood correctly, using a BMediaFile will replace the other tools
(extractor, decoder...).
I had gotten to the point where I was working with BMediaBufferDecoder,
stored with other instances in a structure containing all the tools for each
output, but using a BMediaFile might make it much easier.
