I see.  So the *two* H.264 exporters I added recently don't handle
particularly well?  OK then.

Nobody said you'd need to code in perl.  Working with people doesn't always
mean giving patches, you know.  A simple ffmpeg/transcode/mencoder/whatever
command line that does what you want would go a long way.

If you'd like to add functionality rather than just fragment the support,
working with those who already got a good start on it is usually a better
plan than reinventing the wheel differently.  Especially if claims of
superiority get involved.

I'd be happy to create a new exporter based on what you've found to work for
you.  It seems like you've gone through a lot of trouble to tweak things to
how you want them, including reinventing pretty much all of nuvexport, and
for little or no gain to the rest of the community over simply asking one of
us to add it to nuvexport in the first place...

But whatever works, you are always welcome to make your own scripts.  It's
likely to be more supported in nuvexport though.
