In particular, video and audio running out of sync seems to be a royal =

my dv cam and do much cutting but I can recall my dad complaining very =
much so about various shortcomings of xp windoze. Which I could neither =
locate nor fix at that time.

But I'll try to stop picking on systems I don't understand; all I want =
to say is that not all that shines is made of gold, and so is windows. =
With protocols, you may build a large pipe of 'converters' since the =
protocols are designed to sort it out by themselves. I'm not sure =
whether that's true for a/v data (*).=20

Just a couple of cents from the really back benches...

Cheers,

Peter.

(*) Nonetheless, I'd not mind to see it working ;-)=3D=3D)
