What do you mean by "manipulate"?

There is VideoFlow which is pretty cool (scroll down to the screenshots):

If it's just for playback, the only cross-plattform option right now is MPEG for which we have a general plugin. For Mac and Windows, the Sophie folks made nice players via FFI, based on QuickTime I think. On Linux there is a GStreamer plugin. 

For camera access, there is Scratch's x-platform CameraPlugin. Etoys on Linux uses a V4L plugin. For Windows there is a "DShowVideoDecoderPlugin".
