    I would like to make a movie motion simulator so that action on the video triggers action in the real world (eg relays) I can build all the relay boards and actuators but I need the software that triggers a relay at an exact point in a movie. I have tried with timers and they go out of sync. I need a program that locks to the video so even if it slows down the triggers happens on more of less the exact right video frame. I hope this program is what I am looking for. Please let me know. I will share my progress on this site and in you tube. I can help with Microcontroller and electronics questions especially Pic and stamp related.
    Thanks again
