If VLC counts as a generic application, I'd be more than API to use the 
media_controller (or whatever else) if only to find which ALSA (sub)device, if 
any, corresponds to the V4L2 node of a given USB webcam or such.

I don't know any solution at the moment, and this is a major inconvenience on 
Linux desktop compared to DirectShow.
