Don't expect coloring to work if you use the old mkvideo version that did not 
support it.

Use the version provided in 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2017-07/msg00234.html and, if 
you use a very recent lilypond, use the diff provided in 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2017-11/msg00098.html to patch 
lilypond.

JSBI1.ly needs one change to be compatible to the July-2017 version: Add "\time 
4/4" after line 21. Probably you would want to remove the insane tempo changes that 
served to demonstrate synchronization capabilities.
