Its not much of a debate, more just kicking around ideas and  
brainstorming.  It helps me get things straight in my own mind and  
double checks, from feedback by others, that I'm not grossly  
overlooking something, before I put the fingers to the keyboard and  
actually code it.

I would prefer "file rendering" or "faster than realtime rendering" myself.

Personally I think those are more obscure than "live playing".   
Perhaps "realtime" would be a better term.  Since we are indicating  
the case where low latency is desired, for quickest response.

Thanks for chiming in about the terminology.  It would be good to be  
concise on these, to minimize confusion.
