So does that mean that they'll get embedded in the MPEG file, but Myth
just can't parse them out yet? And if so, then:
- Are they muxed into the MPEG in a standard way (i.e., could I view
them with another program (mplayer, xine, etc)? )
- I assume they'd be lost if Myth transcoded the file (say, to
Nuppel/MPEG-4)
