Answer 5

As Gregory replied, you could use PyMedia. That should easily let you extract the frames and re-encode them afterwards. For "painting" over video, I would just use the Python Imaging Library, generally referred to as PIL. Lots of routines for adjusting images, drawing text or other things on top, and so forth.
