Anime Studio adds frames to DAT file?

Post by myirongiant »

Hi there,

So I go in and do my lip sync in Papagayo, only a second or two's worth really, and when I export the DAT file and bring it into Anime Studio the keyframes are very different. There are closed mouths and the timing of almost the entire clip is off, all too quick usually as well as keyframes not holding for as long as they were in Papagayo, and the addition of random closed mouths for 1 frame that weren't in the Papagayo file originally.

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong and I can't seem to figure out the problem is, I have it all timed out perfectly in Papagayo and the DAT file when I look at it seems to be accurate, but I can't figure out what's going wrong. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Are you on the same frame rate for both programs?

Also control if the sound file has the same sampling rate in both progams.
AS 9.5 MacPro Quadcore 3GHz 16GB OS 10.6.8 Quicktime 7.6.6
AS 11 MacPro 12core 3GHz 32GB OS 10.11 Quicktime 10.7.3
Moho 13.5 iMac Quadcore 2,9GHz 16GB OS 10.15

I have the same frame rate in both, I'll check the audio sampling.

And just to clarify incase I worded it weirdly, it's not that the lip sync is off it's that Moho is adding keyframes and interrupting holds with additional keyframes of the closed mouth.
