Yes...I've used that.  It is a great script, but many of my DVB files
end up way out of sync using it, as it uses transcode. It's great for
most files however...avi's etc.  I would have considered trying to
alter it to use projectx if it weren't written in bash.  The advent of
better scripting languages sort of kept me from ever learning more
than enough bash to squeak by ;).

Mine is very simple (and limited) compared to that.
