[jitter] Re: [bugreport] inserting audio track in jit.qt.movie

Hi Jeremy, thanks for your efforts! 

The workaround you suggest works pretty well for us. The aim of the patch is to easily combine multiple movies into one movie buffer. Ideally this should work independently of the source movies timescales, codecs, etc. 

But our main problem is solved, i.e. some of the movies are generated by jit.qt.grab, which can't write audio as apple lossless.

Yeah, I tried that first. But we import the movie sound into a buffer~ and unfortunately there is still a bug in buffer~'s import function that prevents working with the technique you propose:

Thanks again!
