Weeerrrlll. I think it should.

With server-side video decompression, which I think we should have and 
will probably nick from either vlc or xine, the easiest way to get the 
audio synchronised is to put that in the same widget as the video 
decompressor.  This would allow you to run a TV watching app on a remote 
machine (the one with the TV card), and watch it locally without having 
to guess at the sync delay.
