- All this talk about video compression. Did anyone stop to think about
- what happens to the audio? Audio doesn't compress as well and since it
- doesn't I hope we can keep it seperate as it has always been. After you
- get the video compression algorythm worked out, why not just incorperate
- some SMPTE or VITC so that we could use the NeXT as a front
- panel to control a video deck and a midi project studio via a conversion
- from SMPTE to midi machine code, etc. (using resources found in the music
- and sound kit 3.1). Why try to get the NeXT to do
- every thing when it is within our grasp to get it to monitor and control
- everything including external macs. If someone out their creates something
- I'd be happy to market and support it to NeXT users.
