The first three need to run.  I think the last one is just the mplexer
statement (haven't run in debug mode in a long time, I forget).

Basically, mythtranscode will only send data to the fifos when they're
both being read from.

screen is nice.  run it, you get a new "screen"..  run whatever you
want, then press control-A D  (control-A, then D) to disconnect.  Then
you can hang up your ssh connection, etc and you screen will live on. 
just run `screen -r` to reconnect.
