i'm currently going through the tutorials for Max/MSP in demo mode, besides a google search are there some helpful techniques for syncing audio and visual graphic content in Max/MSP

sync-audio-graphic-content

This is a problem that exists even outside of Max. There isn't really a standard way of doing this, mostly because audio and video are played at drastically different rates (audio usually 44.1kHz and video usually 24 FPS). I'm not saying it's not possible, but it depends on what you want to do and why you would want to do it.
