yes, we are working har don this, but we are still at the stage of 
designing the basic concepts.

well [pix_delay] delays a video-stream framewise.
[pix_buffer] is a table that holds images, so you can basically do 
almost anything that is related to time-manipulation with it (assuming 
you have enough memory)

would be great.
