no realtime or whatever other stuff is needed for dumping/encoding, so 
feel free to do whatever you want while dumping/encoding.
hint: use nice to set your process to a lower priority, so it will not 
interfere with things you want to do in the foreground, but will use up
"unused" cpu-power: nice -n 19 mencoder -whatever
see "man nice" for details or just watch it with "top"
