+video devices, but the video will not be read from e.g. a capture card but
+instead it is generated by another application. this allows you for instance
+to apply some nifty video effects on your Jitsi video... it also allows some
+more serious things (e.g. using it to add streaming capabilities to an
+application by the means of hooking GStreamer into the loopback devices).")
