Audio Sync!!!

[i_am_parag]

Hi All,

I am facing a problem of audio sync with animation. Here is the whole
scenario.

I am developing an educational CD-ROM to teach English. There are about 35
conversations, which we have shown using 2d animation created in Flash. The
audio has been recorded separately in a studio. When I try to sync the audio
dialoges with the animation timeline, even using Stream (instead of event),
the sync is not maintained on lower config pc's like P-I 166 MMX, i.e. the audio finishes before the animatino does. Infact, the audio is no rich music but simple conversations. Moreover,
the audio sync is even worse when I take that swf into Director.

Well, I know machine to machine there will be a slighter variation. But
there must be some way to either speed up or slow down entire thing (i.e.
both audio and animation) rather than one of them lagging behind the another
one.

I am sure, this might have been faced by lot of pros out there. And, there
must be a solution.

I request all of you to consider this a little urgent and do the needful.

Regards,

Parag Shah

[Flash! ah aaaah!]

Are the graphics and sound all on the same timeline? If the graphics are in seperate movieclips (or even worse, I expect, movies) to the streaming sound, that might cock things up slightly.

In my experience though, the graphics stutter and miss frames out in an attempt to keep up with the sound. That should still be happening...?

Sorry, other than that, I dont know

I found that otherthan mavking sure your sound is on teh main timeline. That I ahve to cut up larger/longer audio files. To whre they are more manageable in Flash.

Well, everything is one the main timeline. It does not contain any MCs.

make sure you are using stream sync and the sound is on the main timeline.
