Variation on 2. Build script, save image to disk, view script constantly
polls a directory and displays anything new. This way view is always running
so you avoid the startup lag. As for speed vs using ports, it depends on
file-size and harddrive speed. It is the simpler solution, would test first
to see if speed is acceptable.
