Does anyone feel up to writing a script that will extract the id3 data
from an mp3, create a jpeg from it (perhaps overlaid over a pretty
picture) and then use lives in command mode to stitch the two together to
create an avi file for MythVideo?

Sounds like a winner to me (but I've never played with lives before) - the
image creation stuff could probably be lifted from MythArchive.

Cheers
