I have a live video feed that's sound reactive, so it will show up more depending on the volume level picked up by the computer (much like in the jitter tutorial #28). It seems to work about half the time. I have other videos that are preloaded working off the same system and they seem to work fine, but it seems like when I switch out of the live video feed and then back again it's a gamble if the sound will trigger any image at all. Any ideas?

Not without a patch... Probably a path issue to your assets.

Yep, few problems to start with. If you are trying to do multiple video sources into one window by just patching cables to a single window, you're going to have problems. It's like wiring 2 DVD players to your TV, you need a switch to tell the TV which one to show. Hopefully this will get you started, but you've still got a ways to go.
