As you seem unusually well informed on the video gig, permit me to address the following your direction. With the universe of great free stuff out here I guess I've gotten spoiled. If not looking for 30fps NTSC video output, have you seen a good freeware utility that will allow you to compile & sync some type of sound files & some type of motion pictures at some resolution or frame rate? An AVI or MPEG or Quicktime freebee that will work without fancy (couldn't spell "high-fullootin") graphics cards? OR, have I just overlooked the obvious somewhere? Something already in Windows or an Adobe app?
