I have used speech recognition on my computer before, with a minor issue of it giving me grief over specific words. I haven't run it in a while and discovered it wasn't working right tonight. I thought it was my microphone, and sure enough when I unplugged the mic and ran the tutorial it was back to it's old self. Until I tried to run it in wordpad. I spent no less than ten minutes trying to dictated the words "she lifted"! Even when I finally got the right correction it wouldn't accept the numbers. I tried saying "spell it" but no, I had to manually click on it before it would open the spell it tab. Then it wouldn't correctly spell it either so I said forget it and had to type the thing myself! I couldn't even get 2 words in after typing it myself before it had to correct again. Fifty or more times I tried saying "the lid" and NEVER got the proper words out of the corrector. At this point I am extremely frustrated and angry and I will admit freely I descended into swearing at the speech recognition while attempting to close the piece of crap. Needless to say, now I don't even feel like writing.Now tell me what the ever loving point is to this program if it only works in the stinking tutorial? In trying to save my carpal tunnel from a great deal of typing I only ended up screaming in frustration at the computer and making my throat raw.
I'm starting to use Windows 7's speech recognition program which is proving to be much better than the alternatives, especially Dragon.
However, I can't get it to work with non-microsoft programs. It won't work with Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, iDesign), Open Office, or the Chrome browser. It will work with Wordpad, Expression Web, Live Writer, etc.
Is there some setting I can change? Or is Speech Recognition a microsoft only tool? I'm using the latest version of Windows 7 64 bit on an i5 Asus laptop.
I read on this forum about the speech recognition software on windows 7. So I found it but only by doing a search first. I thought it would be in the program list. I think it is great but I am only learning with it. I am suprised it actually knows what I am saying without learning like a lot of other software out there.
Anyway, thats not what I am writing about. What I would like to know is about the commands it has. I can only find about half a dozen. I have used the help menu but dont get far with that. For anyone who uses it can you tell me where to find the commands or do you have to train it to your own.
Does anybody know where i can find the speech recognition configuration folder so that i can make a copy of it and in case i need to restore it on a later time?
I use speech recognition a lot. I think the speech recognition in Windows 7 is great, although I miss some things in it. For those who also have RSI, or just want to use the voice, I found two add-ons that I think is pretty interesting. The first add-on is the Windows Speech Recognition Macros, you can group several speech commands at once with it. The only drawback is clicking anywhere on the screen with your voice. Windows default "mouse grid" takes a lot commands to move and click. For this issue, I found another add-on for clicking anywhere that is pretty fast. It is a tiny add-on called Voice Finger [URL], and by the way I'm using it right now.
I noticed there's some issues with this but could not fine a resolution. When i first installed Windows 7 I ran the Tutorial for Speech Recognition and it worked perfect.I also used it for awhile and it worked perfect , then i rebooted and was installing stuff i dont remmeber what. but since i just updated i installed alot of stuff. I disabled speech recognition to auto-start when windows booted up and ever since i get this error.
When i try to open speech recognition you can see it pop open for a quick second up top and then i get this.
"SPEECH RECOGNITION COULD NOT START BECAUSE THE LANGUAGE CONFIGURATION IS NOT SUPPORTED.....THE RECOGNIZER LANGUAGE MUST MATCH THE LANGUAGE OF THE USER INTERFACE. PLEASE CHANGE THE RECOGNIZER LANGUAGE IN THE SPEECH RECOGNITION CONTROL PANEL UNDER ADVANCED OPTIONS"
Now. i'm not a total idiot and it was set to US the whole time, and this Windows 7 Beta 7000 32 bit English...oh and all the other speech regonistion otpions work such as tutorial and Train the computer to better understand you (yeah i sat there and read the whole thing for about 5 mins and it worked perfect).
I'm not the only one with this issue. i have a Creative X-FI new beta drivers. for windows 7. Nvidia 9600 GT. Q6600 Intel and ASUS P5K mobo. HELP?
I'm quite interested in utilising Windows 7's speech recognition. I set up my mic, done the tutorial, and even trained my voice a couple of times. However, When I click "Start speech recognition," nothing happens! I don't get an icon in the tray, or the program itself at the top of the screen.
I've tried turning off all non-windows services and programs on startup (this was a Vista fix that I found on the net), but still nothing.
I'm trying to get a Speech recognition microphone which is wirerless. The kind you put behind your ear and talk. All I can get are the ones you put into your phone.
I own Dutch home edition windows 7 on my new laptop. There is no speech recognition module that came with the software.Is it possible to use the English version SAPI 5.1 with windows 7? (installing with compatibility mode XP)I use software that only uses English speech recognition, and works best with XP.The SR modules that comes with thr "bigger" versions of Windows 7 gives a lot of troubles with the program, because there are a lot of instructions that works also with the Windows 7 interface.The software i use = London Control (Air traffic control simulation)
I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys watched the movie Iron Man (2008) or Iron Man 2.Iron Man has like this super computer interface system that monitors his suit, home, life, work. Pretty much a life assistant.What I want is to change the voice in my Speech Recognition System to that British accent J.A.R.V.I.S. (Iron Man's super computer) had in the movie.oreover, When I say " Open notepad". I want the computer to open notepad and reply by saying "Opening notepad".
I'm having a problem with the default Windows Speech Recognition. It will just not start. You press, "Start Speech Recognition" and the spinning disk appears, but then nothing. I use Home Premium.
I wanted a one sheet reference card for the speech recognition commands that I could print and use while I'm still learning how to use speech recognition. I had to make one. I thought it would be worth sharing.WINDOWS 7 Speech Recognition 8 Reference Card.pdf

I have just started to use Windows 7 RC1 and it has to be one of the best releases since WS2000 & WS2003.The Sheer performance, sleek finish and the GUI is great for even beginners. Problem I have so far is that WSRMacros will not launch. I have successfully downloaded the msi from MS installed and rebooted, but when executing the application it does nothing.
I have several applications in the Notification Area (some call "system tray"). Can anybody tell me how I can access them using Speech recognition?
I do not mean by saying "mousegrid" etc. and drilling down, but wonder if there is a command that I have not found that relates specifically to the Notification Area.
I`m trying to pin a speech recognition shortcut to the taskbar of a Windows 7 system so that the program starts when I click it.At the moment, I can only get as far as creating a shortcut that opens with the `Configure your Speech Recognition` window and I can`t seem to work out where the actual program starts from. I thought if I could find the exe file, I could create a shortcut from there and guessed it`d be in C/Windows/system32 but unless it`s camouflaged, it doesn`t seem to be there.
I have Swedish Win 7 64bit Home Premium. I want to use speech recognition to dictate. When I try to activate it I get error message "Speech recognition is not supported for the current language".
I have an issue with DVD playback in both MP and MC. This doesn't happen with every DVD I play, but with many/most of them. The volume on the vocal portion is very low to the point of being inaudible. The background noises and music are all perfectly loud. Basically I can hear what's going on in the world but when people talk it's like they're mouthing the words. I'm guessing it's because DVD audio is on multiple channels and there's something wrong with the way my system is handling one of them?
Audio from mp3 or non-dvd video works perfectly fine.
I'm using a SB Audigy SE.
I have tried installing from the Cd and also uninstalling and using Daniel K's support pack.
I'm running a newly installed copy of Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I had this same problem on my previous install of the RTM version of Windows 7. While using the RTM version I installed the Shark007 pack to see if any filters would help. Nada.
When I use the on-board sound instead I do not have this issue. I suppose I could switch to using it but I'd like to use my card if I can.
This computer is my media center so I really need DVD playback to work.
I downloaded a program that speaks bulgarian text and it installs voice in Control Panel -> Speech Recognition -> Text To Speech and allows you to choose the bulgarian voice. So I want to use the voice in my application and the other people to use it. But they need to have the voice, otherwise the speech won't work. Where exactly are the voice files contained (Windows folder, registry...) and is there any way to copy them from my PC and to put the files in another PC, so the voice can work?
I installed win 7 on my computer with no issues. I built an intel system. My wifes computer is an AMD 6000+ with 4 gig ram. I installed win 7 64 bit just as I did on my intel system only the AMD computer only recognizes 2 gig of ram. I flashed the very latest bios (Gigabyte board) and still only recognizes 2 gig. I even noticed when the bios scrolls through the boot up process I can see only 2 gig. Anyone have any clues. I saw on another forum that some are having that issue once they installed win 7, but others don't.
The Speech store and return after restoring a system image didn't work and I found that I needed to make and export a speech profile. OK, I did that alright and then I brought back the system image, and all looked good, but I could not import the speech profile from it's stored position, and the error message went like there was a program open that was preventing the import, but all programs were closed and none showed up on the task manager.
I'm looking for additional voices for the Text to Speech engine and how to install them. I tried searching but I was unable to find anything that would apply to Windows 7. To clarify, you go into control panel, Speech Recognition, and then open the Text to Speech menu. Under Voice Selection there's a dropdown menu with only one option, Microsoft Anna. XP had Microsoft Sam (who I liked better) and was able to load in third party voices.
But I cannot figure out how to download or install any other voices into Windows 7. My reason for this is for use with the Ventrilo chat client, which uses the Windows TTS engine so it can only use voices that are installed on the computer. I don't much care for the default Microsoft Anna, and more choices are always better, so I'm looking how to install additional voices, especially Microsoft Sam.
any cool text to speech software with windows 7? that im allowed to use with music production, its cool to have computer generated voice with some normal vocals and vocoded vocals, thats all!
Is it possible to logon using only the facial recognition software? I've got asus n50vn with the asus smartlogon software, so i was woundering if its possible to only have that facial logon feature available at logon and someway of hiding the username password feature.
