Text analysis not working. Help?

Hi

I've got a wav file and a txt file in the same folder. both are identically named. Yet FaceFX never seems to use the txt file. I can drag in the wav file, faceFX generates curves but the Phoneme window is never populated with text analysis.

So I tried creating a new animation the long way, via the wizard. The wizard discovers the analysis test (and even lets me edit it before import) but, again, the text doesn't come through to the phoneme window.

Can anyone help me?

Check the log tab and look for warnings or errors related to your text. If there are problems with the text it will not be used and there will be messages printed in the logs.

Hi

Log says that the audio was too long, that it was broken into chunks and that the text file was discarded. How do i add the text file manually please?

Thanks

Your best bet is to add some audio chunking text tags to your text so that the file is broken into smaller pieces that can be accurately analyzed:

You can try setting the a_audiomax console variable to something higher, but for files over 90 seconds, it is likely that you will need audio chunking text tags to do a good job anyway.
