In general a delay of an extra 40ms frame or two doesn't matter either so 
long as the sync lines up. I have watched a number of remote news bits 
where the latency is ~1 second or more (which is disturbing BTW). I have 
had better long distance phone call latency.

Ya, video and audio are two different animals.
