A2E Settings Not Applied via Script (especially `a2e_emotion_strength`)

[YuriGarciaRibeiro]

Hi! I'm using py_audio2face with Audio2Face version 2023.2.0, and I’ve noticed that none of the settings passed through a2e_set_settings seem to be applied when running the script — including a2e_emotion_strength, a2e_max_emotions, a2e_contrast, and a2e_smoothing_exp.

Here’s the snippet I’m using:

python a2f.a2e_set_settings( a2e_emotion_strength=1, a2e_max_emotions=6, a2e_contrast=1, a2e_smoothing_exp=0, )

When I run this with Audio2Face open and the pipeline loaded, the values:

Do not update visually in the UI, and

Do not seem to affect the generated animation, unlike when I set them manually through the interface.

The most critical one for my use case is a2e_emotion_strength, since I’m trying to emphasize emotional expressions in the output.

Is there any workaround or known issue regarding this behavior in version 2023.2.0?

Thanks for the help!

Hey Yuri,

thanks for reporting this! Could you check if the values are send to audio2face in the request?
