@whale-av i tried that last zip out a while ago and no joy either. I actually found a zip online of someone who claimed to have synced a video and sound, patch and all, and got very excited. The video ended WAY before the sound! Daniel someone.. its a pure data old spice thing .. google it. I joined a google plus pd community, checked out the websites of the people posting frequently and sent many emails. I think i've emailed everyone but santa claus asking for help now, lol! Ah well, gonna go in and use the college macs tomorrow, see if it makes a difference.
Thanks for all your help, i reallly do appreciate it!!
