it's slow...   3-4+ hours for a half-hour show on my dual athlon 1900+. 
But then again, I'm running it through yuvdenoise - it makes a
SIGNIFICANT difference in the output.

My goal was to create a gui-free backend that would then interface with
whatever gui the user wanted - cli, text, curses, tk, etc... 
essentially a myth_export library that could be plugged into my
frontend, mythmkmovie, etc.  Unfortunately, things have been changing so
quickly in mythmkmovie that I never got a chance to do much with that. 
(I'd rather concentrate on mythweb, rather than continuously trying to
keep my script up to date with mythmkmovie).

Anyway, a tk frontend would be great, but first I need to get the
interface code separated from the "thinking" code.
