Agreed. NSSound is basically a convenience for playing beep sounds as UI feedback, nothing more. It's not even guaranteed to _start_ the sound when you want: I've had trouble in the past with it blocking for up to a second while reading and decoding the audio file from disk. If you need synchronization, why not just make a movie with an embedded soundtrack and play that? Synchronization of audio to video is exactly what AV playback frameworks excel at — there is a lot of complexity to it, as you're discovering, and why should you have to re-invent the wheel? —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
