I have an AMR reader for an in-house format based on HDF5. The reader is
 compatible with the current ParaView nightly (thanks to some tips by
Berk Geveci).

My experience is that clipping, contouring and cutting work well across
levels and across multiple grids, although you might still have some
cracks at level boundaries. Streamlines don't work because the
StreamTracer does not cross grid boundaries (Bug #1819).

don't quite understand yuor question...
