Hi Christoph,

What are you trying to accomplish?
Do you need sample accurate sync, or does a synchronous start suffice?

To sync-start, the pragmatic simple way is to just send an OSC message
to all applications involved. ..or you can have a look at hdsync/ivysync
on dyne.org.

For accurate sync: Netjack (comes with JACK) allows to sync multiple
machines (via ethernet) using JACK-transport.

AFAIK VLC can only be started/stopped via remote-ctrl but does not
provide for external sync. You could use xjadeo.sf.net for that.

There's also a pd-external (externals/tb/jack_transport) that allows to
sync pd and ardour:
