+Flash:         The video flashes when transitioning between segments.
+IrisSquare:    Video switches segments via a small rectangular view

+Shape Wipe:    Wipe a specific shape across the video.  Available
+               shapes are: circle, clock, heart, tile2x2h, tile2x2v.
+Slide:         Image slides into view - can set: Left/Right/In/Out.
+Wipe:          Wipe the image across screen starting left or right.
+Zoom:          Zoom out video at X/Y magnification for some seconds.
