There's a video rolling in max with no audio. You've got the right audiotrack in a buffer and you want to be able to play it and stop it whenever you want to. We don't want the audio playing in the background all the time so muting the audio is out of the question. But that would be easy, just start playing at the same time as the video and the just mute it when you dont want it. That would keep it in sync all of the time.

But how do we keep the audio in sync if we want to stop it completely during playback, and then start it up again? The audio must know what millisecond the videos in and start the the audio at the same millisecond.

You could send a 'gettime' message to jit.qt.movie.

Wohooo! Tried gettime earlier but you made it work! Thanks
