[Kdenlive-devel] Feature request: Sync External Audio Automatically

[Ernie Zahn]

Hi Daniel,

Interesting feature suggestion. This could be a real attention grabber.

But you mention that you imagine it not to be too difficult to achieve. 
How do you propose this to be true? Can you use an example? As of now 
FCPX has an API for this but the results are inconsistent. If Apple 
doesn't have it stable yet then I'd be a little skeptical of this being 
an easy task.
