The system must be more modular!

I'm testing a new extremely cheap image capture device called EasyCAP 002 USB 2.0 DVR and I noted that the system should be more modular to accept distinct capture devices such as a Geovision GV-800 card and an USB capture device EasyCAP, as shown in the picture below.

So, I decided to rewrite all the grab module to turn this more modular and accept different capture devices hardware. I hope it will be available in the next release 0.1.0.
