This is a bit off the wall. I'm working with a package called tovid
which you download from a google drive by clicking on a link on the wiki
Darn if I can figure out how to put that into the .mk file to automate it.
Look through packages directory and did not see anything obviously like it

Any thoughts would be appreciated
