Well I was trying like h--- to get my DQS pedal to work with Express Scribe and no way.
Thanks for telling me you had the same problem. I thought I was the only stupid one that was having this problem. I thought Infinity would work but it doesnt.
foot pedal- Express Scribe
Yes, I've got that far. I'm actually able to play now, but I still don't have all the kinks ironed out. When I play, it is warbled...I'm sure the problem is with my settings and my F-keys...can you help me?! At least I know now this pedal does work thanks to your telling me yours did...I kept plugging and accidentally discovered I had to click on Express Scribe when I signed in.... Thank you for your help.
You can also use Express scribe with a foot pedal and do it that way... nm

Bytescribe pedal & Express Scribe
I use a Bytescribe pedal with Express Scribe all the time and it works great.
I use my infinity pedal with Express Scribe too with no problems. nm
If you have an Infinity pedal, you can pull the files in thru Express Scribe, (free download) and

I have. I had to fiddle with the settings to get the program to recognize the foot pedal. (sm)
I was initially afraid of doing that, for fear it would screw up my foot pedal for DocQscribe, but it didn't. I found a wizard that set the foot pedal to work. Hope this info helps!
Express Scribe
Does anybody know if earphones can be used with Express Scribe? I can't find any information about this anywhere. Thanks.
EXPRESS SCRIBE
had the same problem when I got my new computer. Easiest way is to take it from desktop, and you can drag it into escribe.
Do you have Express Scribe......

Has anyone used Express Scribe to take an on-test SM
test? I downloaded it, but I can't get the function keys to work. Any help would be appreciated. I am technically dumb! TIA
How to load Express Scribe
If you already haven't found out how to do it, save the files to a folder on your desktop, then go into Express Scribe, click on Load or load files (I don't have it on this computer, so am doing this from memory), then click Browse, then click on C drive, then click Desktop, click on the folder, then click on the files you want to load. In my experience, Express Scribe will only load a job if it has been saved in a folder. Hope this helps and good luck
Express Scribe does play that!(sm)
Not sure about Gear Player, but in open Express Scribe and go to settings, and then settings, and go to the tab files, and you should be able to check the box there. You can also go to the WMA file right click and select open with and then select your Express Scribe. Good luck on the test!
Are you talking about Express Scribe?
It's a little primitive, but it works well enough to take a test with.
Huh? I'm using Express Scribe v4.3 with Vista - nm

I did download express scribe but sm
I may be doing something wrong. I can't open this file in anything but windows media and it goes directly to windows media. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
BTW, why did you leave and do they pay on time?
Thanks
I tried downloading it into Express Scribe and it wouldnt go into that.
It's a mystery and they have never gotten back to me so I assume as I cannot play their sound file, I wont be considered for the job. I tried everything to get it to work.
isnt express scribe free? sm
i had to purchase my own bos and the software/pedal they told me to purchase was $129 (with their discount). they did provide the spellchecker, drug book, and Smartype though, so that was good. thanks for the fyi.
If you are using Express Scribe, you can use your function keys and...
the instructions are in the Help section or maybe it is in Setup. Good luck on the test!
I used express scribe. Worked just fine.

Download Express Scribe.....it's free

Can you download Express Scribe and play the file thru there? nm

help receiving encrypted files through Express Scribe
Is there anyone out there who could tell me how I could listen to encrypted files in my Express Scribe which I receive through email??? I am able to receive and listen to them just fine when not encrypted, but cannot figure out how to set ES up to use a password. When I click on the voice file in my inbox, it now takes me to ES, but displays an ERROR box stating - unable to open DSS file, this means the file might not be a true DSS file or the file is corrupt
The files are coming from a dss program called Olympus if that matters. Any insight would be greaaaatly appreciated!!!
Do most MTSO's require Express Scribe for on-line
It's been a while since I've job hunted. I never had problems with the actual tests, but using Express Scribe to access the tests was always confusing. Is it still a problem for anyone else?
I had the phone interview. I did the report part of the exam with Express Scribe (sm)
last week, but haven't heard back from them. Does this usually take this long? tia
Don't need to record files. Pull them into Express Scribe (free on line) and play them thru there

Star Stop works better than express scribe. If you want start Stop, yea it is kind of sm
expensive. I wish they did pay their QA hourly as I think they would see better quality work, but they per line and it is higher than the other person posted.
I have never had a problem with management, so I am unfamiliar with what the other person experienced with management.
Pay is always on time (most of the time early). I like the software. I guess you just have to see if it fits for you.
I use my own foot pedal. It isn't an EMDAT pedal either, just a regular WAV pedal. nm
nm
Have you checked your control panel settings?nm
nm
Only difference I've noticed is the DVI vs non-DVI pedal. Otherwise, regular Infinity pedal shoul

Well, you clearly need to readjust your settings, beause there's lots of good posted.

Your pedal should work with both, but...
you may need different software for the Gear Player. Email me if you need help - my hubby is an IT guy who I'm sure could help you out.
They use the StartStop software&pedal, but your own pedal might be compatible. Very

I can't get my foot pedal to work
Any suggestions on how to make it work?
How do I get my foot pedal to work?
Several potential employers have sent wave files. I downloaded them, opened them with media player but my foot pedal does not recognize the file. VERY hard to transcribe by starting and stoping the recording manually....no time for that.
Any helpful insight would be appreciated. I've contaced the companies for help, but really not helping. 
Any USB wav pedal will work with Chartscript.net

Anyone work for Med-Scribe
Good or bad please. Just changed companies and hate it time to shift and go elsewhere again  Really getting tired of the promises these companies make and don't follow through... Any help greatly appreciated
I have this downloaded, but can't see to get the foot pedal to work. lol nm

My wave pedal would not work..have 2 under my desk.

I work on Scribe, so I can only speak for that but....
I really like it...very easy to learn, it is Word-based, and I get an awesome line count without feeling like I am working for hours upon hours without making any progress...Good Luck to you!!! I am glad I made the switch...
I work on Scribe and I love it...
very easy to get good line count and very user friendly...
....Don't know why a regular Infinity pedal didn't work. nm

I meant foot pedal wouldnt work. nm
:
I work on the Scribe platform but there are many other platforms..
just depends on what account you get hired in for. On this particular account, you can look up old reports. We do have part-time employees but I believe they are slowly going away from part-time into full-time.
I work on Scribe...very easy to get lines in my opinion...
money is also decent...
I would not work for OSI because their online transcription test was so cumbersome w/o foot pedal
It took me 15 minutes to transcribe 30 seconds of dictation because so much time was wasted rewinding and fast forwarding with the mouse. I did not want to work for a company that could not even figure out to make the online test reasonable.
I took a test for a company and my foot pedal would work with the test and I had keep going back
over the dictation time and again to get all the words because I couldnt stop and start it by the foot pedal. What can I do about this.

I use express scribe with my INfinity USB pedal. My is totally compatible.

Anyone have experience with this company out of Houston? TIA
