RE: : multimedia - Synchronized Media

The only thing that bothers me about it is the opening.

 

"Audio or video..."  Most synchronized media (multimedia), I'd say 95%,  is
Audio synchronized WITH video. So placing the two of them at the front of
the sentence with an OR separating them is kind of misleading I'd say.
