Streaming Movie audio over airport express

One of the greatest strongpoints of Apple is that they make stuff that kindles people’s interest, so much that they try to improvise the products on their own.Airport express is one such product that allows you to stream audio wirelessly from Itunes to any set of speakers attached to the airport express audio port.Now one would be thinkings what if they could allow me to stream other audio content from my Mac via airport express independent of Itunes? well enter Airfoil. Your wish has just been granted. Airfoil allows you to stream audio from the entire system or from specific applications to the airport express unit. However the only disadvantage that i could mention is that it does not support video!! because of the lag in the audio synching between the system and the airport express unit which would be irritating while watching video.A work around that i use makes use of airfoil and the VLC mediaplayer.Basically i route my system or VLC audio via airfoil and then set up the audio desynchronisation function on VLC to compensate the delay in the audio buffering time.This option can be found under the preferences>audio section where one has to enter and negative integer to desynch or resynch the audio and video.You have to play around with the value here which i believe would differ from system to system.I use a desynch of -3350 to get a perfect synch between the video played on VLC and the audio streaming via airport express. I am not aware of such a desynch function in other media players, but am interested to know UPDATE:

 I just noticed that Airfoil has been updated and solved much of the troubles that you had to go through to play videos! Check it out.
