Open() and Close() are common to all modules:
Open() probes and initializes.
Close() terminates and releases all resources.

Then for stream output plugins, specifically:
Add() adds a new elementary stream with a specified format,
Del() deletes a elementary stream that was previously added,
Send() streams a block of encoded data for a specified elementary stream.

There is developper documentation somewhere, but I can't seem to find where, 
nor how the Doxygen comments actually are (or fail to be) used.
