Syncing Pd's clock to other clocks of course is a difficult issue. I
actually was more trying to illustrate how hot Pd's [metro] is
compared to Max's [metro], which AFAIK has a lowest period of 20 msec,
while Pd can go as low as 1 msec and actually could go even lower if
you remove the limit in the source code (or build a metro-clone with
[delay]). Even with periods that small Pd's [metro] stays tight
compared to audio objects. But yes, that still doesn't make it a good
choice when playing or recording video.
