Andrew,

Anyone can try CinGG via VNC connection?) 
Too difficult for my limited talents. 

Anyone can provide me with simplest project based on samples.mplayerhq.hu / matrixbench? so at least i'll try to test non-gui rendering....
I sent matrixbench.tar consisting of matrix.xml file which use a small matrixbench.mov input file to your google email account.  Is this what you need?
