Not currently up-to-date with mythgallery or myth generally with the 
latest svn versions so can't give feedback but this is the best blend 
ever invented.

If you want to give it it's proper name, I think it is called the "Ken 
Burns Effect"...

Probably worth editing the wiki to say MythTV will have it by v 0.19 :)
