Sound not rendering in papagayo workflow

hi, new to synfig but hve to say it’s pretty cool for freeware.

Anyway, I tried my first lipsync today. Recorded a wav took it into papagayo and generated a pgo fine. Took it into synfig and made a switch fine. Added mouth shapes etc and after much tinkering found a codec that resulted in a playable file. I’m on windows and what worked for me was ffmpg with mp4 part 2 and xvid.

My problem is that when I play the vid there’s no audio.

The original wav plays fine. The wav imported ok through pgo and created a sound object layer. Preview fails is silent as well.

Anyone seen anything like this? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

you can’t render directly sound within your video, you will have to use a non-linear video editor or Blender for example to add your sound track.
See wiki.synfig.org/Doc:Audio_Synchronisation#Render :wink:

AFAIK, you need jack to play audio in preview.
