One quick note: once the lossless_cut has run and it's been converted
to an mkv, is that it for editing? I went to see if I could snip out
the bit of commercial that was left, but I rec'd a no seektable
message. Is it possible to rebuild the seektable after it's been
converted to mkv? mythtranscode's lossless cuts allowed you to re-edit
mpeg2.
