I concur completely.  I posted a few months ago about this topic asking for state of the art.  Our application involves multiple receivers that are on the same VLAN and are receiving the same multicast transmission - but viewers can see (and more importantly, hear!) from more than one end point at once.  If those end points get out of sync - even by a small amount - the viewer experience is less than satisfactory (echo effect mostly).  We'd like to see a standards-based solution to this problem.  I've been closely following the SMPTE time code approach in hopes it would lead the way to a solution.
 
What can I do to help this effort along?
