Default video input capturing on track

Could there be a track type video? or in other words record video like one would audio?
Ideally we could simply capture a USB connected camera on a track when hitting record and selecting the cam as input.
It would need a settings section about video input similar to how control surfaces are handled.

I think since the video capabilities of Reaper have grown so much this would be an amazing addition for a ton of different usage scenarios.

The latter: input from a video-device as cameras, probably video-capturing cards, if I understood dadada right.

Would support that too, but I think it's a synchronization-nightmare for the devs to implement.

This would be an amazing addition. I would love to be able to create a new track using a video capture device to record video.

As it stands now, I'm using loopback to pipe REAPERs output into OBS to capture audio along with video. After adjusting for latency, it's a decent workaround, but being able to record all within REAPER (and taking advantage of the take system) would be an absolute game changer.

I wish I knew enough to contribute to developing this feature!
