Mine opened on Real Player.. but I'm not doing them either. nm
I got it to open on Real Player but I didn't do it. The tests
had patient names etc.. I suspect they wanted free work done and then had a 24-hour turnaround. No thanks. I smell a rat.
Okay.. I've tried Windows Media and Real Player.. nothing.. still saying I need codecs.
I've never had this problem playing a test before. I am not sure what the deal is. I hate to give up .. but...
Vonage works just fine with my C-phone
and Lanier. I have had it over a year now and have had no problems at all.
I use my laptop with Vista on it. It works fine
for the account I do and the platform I'm on (DQS)
The expander is the least of it. It works just fine. Line count seems

I use the Infinity foot pedal and it works fine on Emdat. sm
The other poster was right. With the new version of Emdat you can configure most, if not all, foot pedals to work.
Your foot pedal & phones are plugged into your tower like with any other program. Works just fine

I actually have two real jobs with real benefits. sm
One is SoftScript at 10.5 cents a line, taxes taken out and PTO, insurance, the whole ball of wax. The other is a hospital work at home job, same scenario. They are out there.
Wav Player
Oh they will send it to you if you request it -- by testing you they get their work done free of charge.
Sorry, should have been team player. nm

why do they ask IF we want them to send WAV player

Ad from Jan. 07 said 8 and 9 cpl, need your own wav player, 800 lpd min. Old posts

What if any companies use the DVI VoiceWave Player
to download jobs. I find it very easy, efficient and fast with good sound quality. Just wonder if there are any other companies using it, as I will be leaving the company I presently work for.
Their ad says only 6-8 cpl and you need Start/Stop Player. nm

I've just used the player part
and it was fine, but what I've heard about the rest of the program is that it's terrible.
make sure your player is set to play

Little box for transnet player question. (sm)
Is there a way to move this box up to the top of the screen and out of the way of the document so you can leave it open while typing report? Hate to call Tech support if it is really something simple. I tried to just move it, but can't seem to get it done.
Any help appreciated.
Transnet Player Not Working
I have a USB pedal, which normally works with just about everything, but cannot get it to work with the Transnet player. When I manually click on the play arrow on the player itself, it plays, but not with the pedal. What could be wrong?
ExText Transnet Player
First of all when the player comes up click Alt+T to keep player on top. Next click Alt+M to remember position.
1. Alt+V = Volume. Move left/right arrow keys to increase or decrease.
2. Alt+P = Play. Move left/right keys as above to increase or decrease.
3. Alt+A = Auto backspace. Same principles as above.
4. Alt+R = Rewind.
5. Alt+F = Forward.
Hope this helps.
Any companies hiring IC that use the VoiceWave Player,
and pays 10 cpl minimum. Thanks.
Phoenix Medcom, pedal and player
InScribe compatible - any ideas where to get these? Or what the learning curve is on the software? Can I use my old Expander or import it somehow?
LOL!! DVD player for staying more than one week!!!GOOD Grief!!!
Must be really awful!!!
Bytescribe is not a platform, just a digital voice player - sm
That said I have always liked it, but it only allows 3 installations, which I have used up on mine, after that you have to get permission from them. I need to do that as my computer crashed and am now unable to reinstall it, a real pain in the butt. I have heard you have to purchase additional installations after 3 but don't know about that as of yet. But it is a very versatile program/player, places every type of voice file that I have ever needed it to (.dss, .wav, Playall).
I had that happen and had to play them in Windows media player-nm

We resent converted wav files that will work in any player. All positions at this point have been
each and every applicant who has submitted a resume and/or tested with us. Should we have missed anyone, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for applying and/or testing for USAType, Inc.

Yes, I agree. The sound quality with VoiceWave Player is really bad. Worst I've ever heard.

After all these years, if I use Media Player, I just have my test outline ready and play the voice

The platform is Word. Their program works with Word but does not change how Word works. nm
The benefits just changed the first part of this month. I don't have them but I remember them being reasonabl for a single person. Family and spouse was not reasonable in any way (in my opinion).
I still feel like a team player of Spheris, as the shackle scars are still on my legs! Spheris was
Micromanaged to the microsecond, or ms! Horrible. And part of a team? Total opposite - part of a team as in prison.
i have it and like it just fine
the preventative maintence is paid in full. I don't remember any long waiting periods. I do think you have to have the insurance a year before you can use it for braces tho, which i also did, and i think the max payout was $1000/yr on the braces (not absolutely sure i remember correctly). it has served me well and the monthly rate was fair.
Fine
So that's what was rude. Okay. But did you read my second post? I DID say work was slow. I DO know it. How many ways can I say it????? But, I am still able to get my line counts in. So are many, many other MTs at Transcend? I see many MTs asking questions for word help/account specific questions, as they are typing. They are typing. Why are they? Why are many of us able to get our lines in? Why can't you? Ask for another account. They said in the email sent out yesterday that if you want or need another account to email them, training will begin today? Why aren't you training on a new account? I have been with Transcend for awhile and have had no problems getting my line count in at all. That is what I am saying. I am not going to get on here and say anything else, as that would not be the truth from my side of it. I am not saying that you aren't having a hard time pulling work. All I am saying is that it is still possible even though slow, as I am doing it and so are others.
I think $13.50 is just fine, especially when....sm
I don't have to buy "work" clothes per se, don't have to drive into the office to work, and can be home when my kids get off the bus, thereby saving money for after-school babysitting. I live just fine on my salary and it's not for you to knock what I make or how I live...and yes, we go to the movies AND buy popcorn/sodas there!
I have friends who make $20-25 an hour in their jobs and they drive in to work (we live in the suburbs of a major city), have to wear business clothes, and pay for daycare. Not only do they spend 2 hours a day in the car commuting to/from work but with the costs of them workintg they actually end up making less money than I do - it's all how you look at it and do the math. I on the other hand buy a tank of gas and it lasts usually 3 weeks, sometimes 4 and yet we're not deprived.
That's quite fine...sm
Not my loss 
VPN is fine as well.

Yep, still here. Doing fine. nm

Why is that fine?
Aren't they about the only U.S. MTSO that does that? Are they willing to make their books available to determine how soon after they are paid they pay the MTs? Sounds like it is problematic, and a well run company (which granted is not them, since they're only overflow) would be able to handle this, just like 99% of other employers or businesses do. Why is it fine? Can we tell our utility company or car note company that we'll pay them when we get paid?
I like it fine
Nothing really exciting but nice people to work with. Plenty of work with overtime and incentives quite often. Always paid on time and correctly. Rate is 0.09 for some account and 0.10 for a harder one. Every account has a few hard dictators but overall pretty good. ExText platform. 401K with 100% match of up to 4% after a year of employment. Not very good insurance. I feel secure and comfortable - just not making a lot of money. Not sure about raises. I haven't had one. Anybody else know if and when?
What co was that for? I'm sure you did fine.

You are going to be just fine sm
Every job takes some getting used to and you are never too old to learn new programs. It's just unlearning the old program and relearning the new. You'll get there. TT is very patient.
That's fine
if you are going to judge 'my tone' from posts without benefit of any one on one discussion, you are free to research the possibility of a union on your own.
I'm a straight-shooter, and sometimes that translates to some as harsh... others take my posts with a large grain of salt and/or withhold judgement. Your choice :)
I'm not willing to hold the reins here anyway, merely to help a serious interest proceed.
And by the way, the ant hill is plenty stirred up from my viewpoint. My whole intent was to see if the ants wanted to see a possible solution, or merely to continue venting...
Everything is fine at MQ now sm
We are also being paid downtime for the time we were down, so it wasn't so bad at all!
It's fine :)
Some people have no personality and just love to be negative. I guess it really bothers her that you made a career change. (holy crap)
I think we will be fine and do even better
I think we will have our pick of jobs. I am not worried about any of the names unionized workers resort to calling.
Just keep on keepin' on.
If okay with you, then fine with me
I don’t work for the company but with jobs disappearing overseas today and with most concerned about lack of work, falling salaries, and so on I would think only a matter of time before all go that way.
That's fine.
If they don't have work for me during the hours I want to work, fine. I end up taking the day off. Just part of being IC.
But the problem the OP had was MTSO dictating what hours the MT is to work such as must working from 8-5. They cannot do that. If they need someone to work a shift from 8-5, then they need an EMPLOYEE, not an independent contractor.
Sure, that would be fine

Working fine for me
I haven't had any problems since beginning with Diskriter in January this year. My benefits are great and they just switched to Highmark Blue Cross because employees surveyed wanted a wider coverage area program. I meet my incentive almost every week. Working for me!
It was fine! What I enjoyed was...
...that in one of the transcription reports I had my favorite doc on the whole planet dictating. I recognized his voice - what were the chances that that would happen? I live in an area with about 50,000 people, and the hospital he dictates for is about mid-size. It was nice to hear him again.
that fine~i don't much care whether
you believe me or not. I have nothing to prove to you. lol
I am sure everything will be fine. Been there 90 days now. (sm)
After sticking it out for 3 yrs with the worst company going (OSi), I couldn't be happier.
