%X The occam\-pi language provides many novel features for
   concurrent software development. This paper describes a
   video processing framework that explores the use of these
   features for multimedia applications. Processes are used to
   encapsulate operations on video and audio streams; mobile
   data types are used to transfer data between them
   efficiently, and mobile channels allow the process network
   to be dynamically reconfigured at runtime. We present
   demonstration applications including an interactive video
   player. Preliminary benchmarks show that the framework has
   comparable overhead to multimedia systems programmed using
   traditional methods.
