I don't know much about this sort of thing either, but the paragraph above makes me think of SMIL: http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/Activity.html W3C's Synchronized Multimedia Activity has focused on the design of a new language for choreographing multimedia presentations where audio, video, text and graphics are combined in real-time. The language, the Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL) is written as an XML application and is currently a W3C Recommendation. Simply put, it enables authors to specify what should be presented when, enabling them to control the precise time that a sentence is spoken and make it coincide with the display of a given image appearing on the screen. __ Joseph Reagle Jr. W3C Policy Analyst mailto:reagle@w3.org IETF/W3C XML-Signature Co-Chair http://www.w3.org/People/Reagle/
