Sounds great.  Will it get around the problem I am having with 
mythtvwebburn where the aspect ratio keeps getting altered?  I am hoping 
it will as you won't be doing any conversion and the video from my DVB-T 
card is 720x576 16:9 natively.

Also, will it be possible to use this code without having to install a 
non-release version of mythtv?
