I think I'll stick with Maven for the module, but the two others really
need names, and I have nothing.

Maven is already a well-established name for an existing free-software
work <URL:http://maven.apache.org/>.

I recommend choosing a name which isn't already taken by any well-known
project (and wish you luck in that search :-)

Well of course. All the good names are taken. :P
I even came up with cavelib and it was taken (
http://www.mechdyne.com/cavelib.aspx ).
Maybe I'll just stick to abstract names then.

A couple of ideas that don't seem to turn up
anything software-related:

Flummux
Flavius

Hmm....
How about Rainbow Video Encoder Wrapper (Rainbow View for short - RView
is taken, possibly multiple times)?
I added an arbitrary word to a generic name, and the result doesn't seem
to be taken by anything software-related. It wraps more than just video
encoders (in fact, x264 will likely be the only one it wraps until it's
matured quite a bit :P ), but I didn't want the name to get too long.
The module itself will likely be called just rainbow.py.
