	I am at work on my own version of "mythDVD", which is a regular myth plugin 
(a la mythmusic or mythvideo), plus a standalone socket-based transcoding 
daemon. Daemon approach is so that you can go into mythDVD, set up a 
transcode/rip, and then go back and do other things. Transcoding will happen 
in the background when other things are not taxing the box. You can go back 
into mythDVD at any time to see how things are going. Finished file ends up 
in the mythVideo tree.

	Everything in the mythDVD frontend is C++/myth code. First release of the 
transcoding dameon will probably still contain some hack'ish transcode 
wrappers, but that should get removed over time.
