I bring audio into Poser so I can time everything, of course, including lip synch. But I render out to individual frames. When I make the film from the frames, I have never had any problem re-timing to the audio. cyberscape, have you ever considered rendering your animation out to individual non-lossy frames and assmebling you movie in another application? There is a list in my head at least 10 items long why I do it that way, we can discuss if you wish. ::::: Opera :::::
