If you go to www.xmms.org, there's similar visual plugins for it that
do this kind of thing.

Yeah, that'd be the best way. You could then use dxr3enc to watch it on
a DXR3. I don't know how it'd work though, you'd have to 'listen' to
the audio to be able to react to it, but if it were a video decoder
plugin, it could do that, couldn't it?
