: If you run the tape, how far in do you first notice that it's out of
synch?

It's proportional. So in 2 hours it's off by .155 of a sec. In 1 hour
it's off
by .0775 of a sec.... Etc...

Do you notice that it's .0775 seconds out of sync? Do you have to look
at a time scale on the computer to know that it's out of sync or is
there some aural-visual cue that tells you that?

Frankly, I think that if you can see that it's 0.0775 seconds out of
sync, you've got a good imagination. What we're trying to get at is
whether you're seeking an exotic solution for a problem that isn't a
problem in practice.

Mr. Makarovsky has been flogging this question now in at
least a couple of newsgroups that I read. Frankly, it has taken
on the tone of a troll. He has ignored at least a dozen suggestions
for the most likely methods of fixing the issue (assuming that it
even exists). if he wants to tweak the length of the sound track
by .002% maybe we should just let him learn for himself.
