Lip sync export

[diliberg]

Hello,

I am working with FaceRobot in order to create an animation of a person speaking given the text and the audio files. I am now able to export the animation to a video file (avi), but I need also to have the transcription of the phonemes and of their starting/ending time-points. Do you know if it is possible to export this information in a text file or if it is possible to retrieve it somehow? If not, could you please indicate me a software or a publication related to lip syncronisation?

Thanks a million,

Giovanni

with scripting.  The lipsync ends up on the animatino mixer, and you can get the data out with 

GetPhonemeBlendFromSpeechClip

http://download.autodesk.com/global/docs/softimage2012/en_us/sdkguide/index.html?url=si_cmds/GetPhon...

or you could call the command directly that does the phoneme analysis.

it's called 

SIExtractPhonemes
