The transcoder has historically been run as a shell script, and this functionality should be retained. However there should at least be a shallow wrapper to the main ito.sh script, and ultimately it would be progressive to move all the individual /bin/lib/*.sh scripts to /lib/*.js. For one thing, it would increase portability across OS platforms and for another it would be easier to bootstrap logging etc.

+1 for the js-shell-wrappers!

one step further could be just writing wrappers for each of the used tools/libs and then binding the js directly to the native functionality.

I really like the approach used by astro here:

There are jewels in that code...
