As far as I know it would be a fairly reasonable expectation - you would
simply hide the Tkinter screen when you show the pygame/pymedia window.
However, I'm not nearly as versed on any of the above as a lot of folks
here, so they may be able to confirm/contradict my advice.

But with my limited knowledge, that's probably how I'd do it (unless you
have a burning desire to learn pygame).
