Fine...

I'm working at www.deltatec.be

We have here a sync issue about two TNT cards that must sync their video
signals...

It must be done and we'll have some skilled engineers on this problem...
('round march or
april)

When they're done, I'll summarize the infos and make them available for
you..

Maybe it can help (I'd REALLY like to buy 2 AudioPCI cards and start
trying with two Loooooong sound files... looks great)

BTW... Anyone heard of Guillemot Home Studio ISIS ? It's a
soon-to-be-released PCI card with external 8in/4out rack... For less
than $350... Does someone have a clue about Guillemot's will to
coooperate with a Linux driver project ? Maybe we should send them the
request-for-driver-info file ? (before 4front does it ;-)

Not that I'm a GPL fanatic... But I'm pretty sure the GPL model can lead
to
better performance (faster) than the $$$-led model (more people can try
& patch the drivers)...

Benjamin.
