Is there software that you know of that does this effectively? The thing about A/V media is that the A packets are interleaved with the V packets. You can't count on an entire V frame to occur without A possibly interrupting it in the sequence. And tou are required to read both in the sequence they appear in the stream. If your A decodes and renders in time, but your V does not, then there is no incentive to skip ahead unless you want to disrupt BOTH A and V from the users perspective. Instead, you just keep rendering the available A at the prescribed rate and skip the V that doesn't decode in time. V takes a whole lot more processing power, so it will always fall behind if there is not enough CPU to process both.
