I'm now thinking the the out-of-sync risk is not only a problem caused 
by latency, because you may have a video that starts with 0.3s of 
silence, and your song start with 0.5s. So there should be an algorithm 
to compare both sound channels and try to sync them, which seems a bit 
complicated to design, mmmmhh...
