Wow.  Very cool.  I wish I had noticed that while surfing through the
code :)  Well after an hour or so of tinkering, I can now transcode
rtjpeg to mpeg4 (obviously staying in the NUV format).  The output
currently looks very phychadelic (any motion results in things warping
around), but that is likely due to the quick hacks I did to get
ReencodeFile up and running.  I'll work on fixing it up I guess.

Thanks!
