Yeah, unfortunately that the way it is. The process of porting filters
from transcode
to frei0r is indeed one try to save something good from the project and
to have
some good karma :)

Georg Martius (author of vid.stab, the filter we are talking about)
has a github repo here: https://github.com/georgmartius/vid.stab
and as far as I know this is the reference repository.
For the record, I also have an always-in-sync fork here just for minor
hacks here: https://github.com/mojaves/vid.stab

I already wrote some code to interface vid.stab with frei0r:
https://github.com/mojaves/tycho-plugins/tree/master/srcvs/filter

Just two caveats:
- the code uses some bits of the extensions we're talking about
and some (minor, ported, self contained) transcode utility libraries
- the code assumes vid.stab is avalaible somewhere as separate source tree

But if the code looks good enough can be adapted to the plain frei0r
interface
with a few tweaks.

OK understood, is less or more what I thught. So, seems there isn't much
to save from the transcode filter set after all.

I see your point and I think I'm gonna shred the YUV thing from my
extension set.

I anyway added some other goodies which could be interesting for the
community,
like (semi)automatic option handling for C plugins (ref:
https://github.com/mojaves/tycho-plugins/blob/master/include/frei0rx_param.h)

But I think I need to write down some docs before to discuss this :)

Bests,
