Requested Feature

Right now it's possible to open either a source projector or a videoMix projector, with type as Preview, Program or multiView. But OBS also provide a "Scene" projector in the available types. All it would require os to add a Scene in the mix types. Also, as OBS as a unique entry for projecting: obs_frontend_open_projector which handle every type... wouldn't be more efficient to have only one request: OpenProjector like this:

Requested Feature Usage Scenario

My app allow user to launch scenarios which project movies on different outputs. I can use OpenSourceProjector, but then I can't add effects and filters before projecting the sources. By using a scene projector, I can add effects before projecting them.
