Media handling APIs have internal clocks and it is best to use those for the
most efficient playback.  It is basically impossible to sync Pd or Max to
one of these APIs without some tricks (GEM) or having the API drive the app
(Max/Jitter).

Also, you patch has no real load and under load Pd's scheduler begins to
have lots of problems.  If your media API is taking 20-30ms to return
decoded frames then a metro is of little use.
