What do you mean by filtering? If some plugin type is not supported by drag

i guess i don't understand what you're attempting to do.

And about realtime - some processing plugins are not marked as realtime-
capable (TAP plugins), as well as RT may be used for non-realtime work.

Any sample editor, like audacity, mhwaveedit, could also accept them for non-
realtime operations. Btw, hopely, there could appear even video plugins. Of
course, if there are some standards appart gstreamer plugins.

let me restate that. the whole design of audio analysis plugin APIs has important differences when compared with processing plugin APIs, even though they overlap to some extent.

most notable: the output of a VAMP plugin is NOT audio (nor any streaming data of any kind at all).
