video with a synchronised waveform view of the sound, and some other
features views, like the pitch of the film voices (the actual pitch
detection doesn't need to be computed on the fly).
Python seems really great for rapid developement, but I wonder if
it is possible to play different media synchronously (the media
decoding itself will be of course coded in C/C++) with it? Does anyone
here have any experience with multimedia and python ?

It's not Python {but there are bindings available {should you need them}}.

If you really have your heart set on python:

Thank you all for your answers. I don't know why I didn't think about
PD: excellent way to see its possibilities !
Concerning the SC language: I don't know anything about it, but I think
it is kind of overkill for my application (which doesn't really demand
any RT capabilities, if you don't consider playing a video as a RT
problem). Seems interesting, though for other applications.
cheers,
