It works but is very slow. Seems that all the video is re-rendered before
being authored. In a short test there was about a 4 to 1 ratio between real
time and completion. ( 3 Ghz pentium + 500 Mb mem ). Hides the video_ts
folder in some god-forsaken corner of the computer but once found, quality
was not too bad.
