Blew $80 on an AI video generator that couldn't handle basic hand movements

I was excited about this new tool, Synthesia. Thought I could save time making training videos for my IT team. Spent 3 hours creating a script, picking an avatar, all that. The first output had the avatar's fingers just glitching through the keyboard. Tried 4 more takes, got unusable hand clipping every time. Support said it's a known issue with version 2.3. Anyone else find a decent AI avatar tool that actually nails hand gestures?

Oh man, that's rough. I feel your pain on this one. I tried a similar tool last year and got the same creepy hand stuff happening, like the avatar was trying to do jazz hands through a solid table. It's amazing how much the little details matter when you're making something for your team. You'd think with all that money they'd at least get the fingers working right. Hope you get your money back or at least a solid update soon.
