Well my point was that he should be using media.  It was designed for
that kind of thing.

  As soon as you get your patch working I would be more than happy to
explore the possibilities of using media for applications such as these.
While it has been demonstrated that it can be done with the official
version of media the render times and parameter adjustments needed to
achieve the desired results are monstrous and difficult to achieve.

It just so happens that I'm free after this weekend and that patch is high on
my list of things to do.  As I recall there's a lot of modification I need to
make, but hopefully I can come up with something next week.

I didn't say anything.  For the record, I agree. :)
