Philip--

I was successful in importing a VOB into DVArchive.  The problem seemed 
to be the "delete after import" flag - this has to be checked for the 
import to be successful.

In regards to to reinterleaving, would you consider adding a feature to 
ReplaySix disable reinterleave either by GUI or CLI option.  Another 
option that might possibly be more robust is to read the 'Media' type 
from a show.  If 'Media=Other Non-ReplayTV Media' type, then 
reinterleave is disabled.

I last coded 7 years ago and am now an MBA student.  I wish I could 
contribute but my coding skills are long gone.  Hopefully other Roku 
users would find using DVArchive useful as a video server.

Thanks,

Kevin
