[PD] Video codec advice

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I ran a 720p movie with sound off of an old Mac mini using Pd- 
extended.  I converted the video to JPEG. I loaded the sound into an  
array and used my fledging framesync library to play the sound in sync  
with the video.  You can get framesync from SVN:

svn co  https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/trunk/externals/framesync

Put the framesync folder into the same folder as the videoplayer.pd  
patch.
