I have been having issues using magic motion to record shows. When I export them to VSA there is no jaw movement because it doesn't track the movement because it's using autotalk during the recording. Jerry said there was a new version of Magic Motion out so I'd really appreciate it you could email that to me. My email address is <EMAIL DELETED> Please reply via email because I'm not too forum savvy and I probably couldn't find my own post to read your response.

There is a simple and known issue behind why your jaw motion doesn't work and that is there are no commands in the VSA routine to turn on the relay that switches the jaw servo to Audio control, I forgot to send the command to VSA.

To correct this you need to manually add a jaw relay command

1) open your routine in VSA and Press F3 to open the settings window

2) find an unused device without a check mark next to it and check it

3) working from left to right give the device the following settings

Name- JawRelay
Type- BoC Servo
Port- Enttec-0
Addr- 38
+Value 1250
-Value 250
Default 1250

4) click OK

5) in the routine window you should now see a new horizontal row for JawRelay

6) in routine window left click on the row next to the JawRelay and drag a bar 1 frame wide, 1 frame from the start just after the first power bar and another 1 frame bar just before the last power par.

7) double click on the first bar and make the following settings

Event Type- Linear Bar
Start time- 00:00:03
Stop Time- 00:00:07
Start Position- 1250
Stop Position- 250

Cool

Double click on the last bar and make the following settings

Event Type- Linear Bar
Start time- ??????????
Stop Time- ??????????
Start Position- 250
Stop Position- 1250

9) try the routine again

There is a new version in development to fix this which I hope to make available soon.
