I've tried to use lip sync, but it somehow does not seem right. What assignments for letters and sounds do you suggest?

I found this to work more or less:
0: M/B/E /E,/E?/E./E!/P
1: A
2: C/G/H/J/K/N/Q/R/S/T/X/Z/Ch/eR/ghT/Gh
3: O/Uh/Ugh/I
4: F/V
5: E/Y/Ea
6: L/Th/D
7: U/W/Oo
Of course, nothing's going to be totally perfect due to the inane spelling rules found in most languages.
Here's an image showing the mouth positions for the above eight frames:

With less detailed sprites, such as LEC-style speech, you can probably consolodate down to just three or four frames instead of eight.
This works pretty good for me so far (english):

1: B/F/M/P/V/W/TH
2: I/E/C/D/G/H/J/K/LL/L/M/N/R/S/T/X/Z
3: A/I /THI
4: WH/O/Q/U
The AGS defaults are:
0: A/I
1: E
2: O
3: U
4: M/B/P
5: C/D/G/K/N/R/S/Th/Y/Z
6: L
7: F/V
8: W/Q
But I don't know what frames these correspond to.
Thanks a lot!
