A dream of a feature would be if you could
"scrub" through in the Timeline in Moho
as you can in Papagayo.

This would make it a breeze to set keyframes
for a few mouthshapes at the exact position.

Cheers

If you drag the current time marker side-to-side in Moho, you should be able to hear the audio on the particular frame you're over. This doesn't work so well with MP3 files, so try to stick with uncompressed files like WAVs.

Well, maybe my system is to slow...
(iMac 700MHz - 768MB RAM - OSX 10.3.9.
I really can't hear a difference between
.mp3 or .wav files in the timeline.

It's possible to have MP3 compression inside a WAV file, so just because it's WAV doesn't mean it doesn't also have MP3 compression. Have you tried the WAV files that come with Papagayo? They are definitely uncompressed.

Thanks LM for your excellent support.

With the help of Audacity I converted some .mp3-
to .wav-files (I hope without .mp3 compression remnants).
Playback (Allow Frame Skipping) is fairly good.

I tried to improve an old project with this "Lip-Sync-Technique".
Here is the result:
