Complex software written byhuman beings can have bugs.

Biggest limitations so far:
• no upstream communication => no seeking • overhead: 720p ogg/theora on my i5: 20-30% -> 30-40% cpu
Potential solutions:
• better wrapper around the sandboxed part of the pipeline (with upstream communication)
• put the whole pipeline in the sandbox
Thank You
