I'm interested in the current state of multimedia vis-a-vis X.  What's
the state of the art, and what standards are in place or in
development?  I've heard of a few things - servers that support live
video in a window with the help of Parallax boards or their ilk, video
control extensions to X, synchronization extensions to X, and a variety
of separate servers supporting audio and video control - and I'd be
interested in hearing more about any of these, as well as anything else
that might be relevant.

Please email any replies.  Your responses will be subject to my great
gratitude and to inclusion in a summary posting which I will eventually
make.

Thanks,
David Rosenbaum
