Done. Configured vls to stream this same file and compiler
mplayer without Live.

It hasn't improved the situation.

With OSS audio output, audio and video drift, and video is fairly
good except for some artifacts (smooth, not blocky) around the
movement of the fingers.

With SDL audio output, the a/v sync is better (but not good
enough) and the video has more artifacts.

I will try and track this down further tomorrow. Thank you
for the suggestions so far. I was just stabbing in the dark
before them.


Dermot.
