OK.  Could this use float rather than int for the framerate?  I see some
code is manually casting to int, but surely there's a use for rates
slower than 1fps and for some output formats fractional rates are needed
(e.g. NTSC).

Maybe we need a framerate value for the rendering settings modelling?

Thanks.  Certainly for the methods which are made redundant by new
additions to the model, we might consider deprecation and removal.
