The lip sync feature doesn't have to be added.  It's already there.  But 
many people (like yourself) don't know it exists because it is disabled 
by default and must be enabled using the "Advanced" menu, which again 
many people don't know exists, because it too is disabled by default and 
can only be enabled with a ctrl-alt-d key combination.
