You can also tell from the name on the voice file. sm
The files are named sequentially, lowest to highest. That should also help you to detemine which ones are the "oldest".
an .exe file is not a voice file
I'm no techie, but it sounds like they might've sent the wrong file by mistake. Or could it be a program you need for testing/working for them that they sent? What is the name of the file (if it is something you can say here)?
can't play voice file
I was sent a voice file to transcribe (test) and I can play it but not at the same time that I am in MS Word. What am I doing wrong?  TIA
upload voice file
A good way to upload a voice file is to send it by FTP to an in-house computer. This keeps it off email and the web.
It wasn't on a voice file. It was on an old Lanier, but (sm)
my friend transferred it to a tape (she had the dictation) and I listened to it. Gross.
free voice file software
I am in need of a software that plays .dvf files. I currently use Gear Player, and although it plays a multitude of different files, I can't get it to play .dvf. Does anyone know of a free one online I can try? Thanks!!
Do you have the voice file type checked for

Download the voice file to your computer.
Then open ES and load it in. If it's not a supported file format, you can get a program like Switch to convert it to a supported format.

I highly doubt that an itune voice file --sm
would be compatible with your software footpedal. my footpedal software recognizes certain types of voice fils like WAV or DSS, etc. but I seriously doubt if itunes uses those types of files. you can try though, but don't count on it. Save the file to a location where your digital voice player will locate it and try to open it. if your digital voice player will open it, your footpedal should work. but again, don't count on it.
Right click the voice file and save it to your computer.
I'm not wasting 45 minutes of my time for a 2 minute voice file.
I'm not wasting my time on a physician who can't or won't speak half way decently, English born or not. I don't have to work for crappy doctors. I found ones who are willing to make an effort if they can't speak English, they try and spell things as do my English docs. I've been an MT for a VERY long time. I'm an excellent MT and have nothing to prove to you. Have a wonderful holiday season filled with KINDNESS. Try being a little less judgmental. Sounds like you ride atop a very high horse.
Works great for me. Fave voice file player is an

Download Express Scribe (free player) and see if you can pull the voice file into it. nm

Start Stop voice file player and conflicts with Spyware Doctor
I was having problems with StartStop and talked to one of their techs this morning. One of the bugs it was having was fixed when I turned off Spyware Doctor so I need a new anti-spyware program.
I’m thinking of trying Spyware Blaster. I called to see if there were any conflicts with that one but had to leave a message. In the meantime, does anyone use StartStop voice file player and also use Spyware Doctor without any buggy conflict problems between the two softwares?
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm
I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank. When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you
Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.

There's an ad on Mtjobs.com for editors for a voice recognition account. The company is called Focus Infomatics.
Voice recognition?
Hello, new to these boards and I have a question.
Is there a voice recognition software that will work for medical reports? I'm not sure how it would work, if it would actually translate the speech directly from the dictation you are listening to on your computer, or if you'd have to listen and speak it at the same time for the software to translate it?
I've been doing MT for about 3 years now and I'm developing hand/wrist pain, and I'm afraid my time in this profession may be running out. I really love this work and I'm hoping to find a way to make it work.

Naturally Speaking v.8 works great if,
The digital voice recorder can deliver at 44.1 khz. However, these are .wma files and are HUGE!
The user takes the time to teach the software the nuances of his/her voice. This takes weeks.
The user knows how to punctuate. There are a lot of smart people that don't know where the hypen goes.
The user uses standard dictation commands ie. full stop, new paragraph ect.
If not, you end up with a blob if inaccurate info that's going to the MT for clean up.
If so, you end up with a relatively accurate doc that still should go to a MT for proofing.
IMHO, there's a lot of speech recognition software on shelves all around the world.

Does anyone use voice recognition to help them do their job?
Voice Recognition
After hearing about it for years, I finally did my first VR work a few days ago. My fellow MTs, I think we have nothing to fear from this technology. It will take years, probably a generation, before it is perfected enough to replace us. I actually found it rather entertaining to edit - it just prints out exactly what it hears phonetically, including the instructions - "Go back up and add...."
I think they should show some Voc Rec printouts and transcribed reports of the same dictations at all Medical Staff Meetings so dictators can see just what we do in our job.
Voice recognition
...I agree with your post Desertflour, but for a different reason. Medical language specialists should keep statistical analysis of what VR types and present it to administrators to show how much they are foolishly throwing their money away! By the time the MLS edits and corrects, it is almost like retying. Where's the savings?
Voice Recognition
I've done voice recognition in the Radiology department for a hospital for two years. I wasn't there when they first started using it, but I'm told the goal was for them to have only one Transcriptionist (editor). We're fully staffed now (actually today was my last day there - I'm working at MQ now) and let me tell you, those docs are not even close to being ready to solve their own problems and self correct. There is only one doc out of 17 that self corrects, and his reports don't look good at all.
I'm not saying it'll never happen, but I think we're going to be needed for awhile.
Voice Transcription
Voice Transcription is the company that I've been having trouble getting paid. Is this the same as you? I sure hope not, as I still have some hope that she'll get around to paying me.
voice recognition
Could somebody tell me about voice recognition as far as transcriptionists using it? How does that work? I'm really interested. I know that several years ago it was the talk, but I think everybody found out it was not very good or easy to train. Are transcriptionists now using it to transcribe dictation? and how do they do this?
Voice Recognition
Voice Recognition (VR) software does require some change in discipline for the dictator. However, today's VR programs are much more intelligent than in years past (and not too past, either).
The key to successful VR is the "training" of the software for a particular user. Once that's done, the software can do a 95%+ job in accuracy. And, after correcting any errors, the software gets even more accurate.
I'm a speaker this weekend at the San Diego AAMT chapter meeting. I'm giving a talk on how VR can be used to make MT's more efficient. I think it's time more MT's took a serious look at letting VR help them get more work done more quickly. I have 3 MT's in my family, so it's not just the salesman in me speaking - I truly think you could get ahead of the game and negate your doctor's switching on their own ("Hey, Doc, I'm already using VR, so you don't have to go through the hassle"). And Dr.'s don't have time to be fooling around with software, training, corrections, etc.
Just my two cents.

We're moving to use Packet8 VoIP service. We've been studying VoIP solutions for some time now, and I think they have the best program (we'll see when we begin testing it soon). Their calls use less bandwidth than Vonage, which we like. As for back-up phone lines, you can configure the Packet8 system to route calls to your cell phone (or another land line) if your Internet connection goes down. We like that feature particularly. We're on a fixed-price LD plan with SBC right now, so the LD savings aren't much, but for our toll-free line, we stand to save a bundle!
It is voice recognition...probably 2.5 cpl.
You edit what the system/computer puts out which could sometimes be nearly the entire thing for that amount per line! No fun!

If anyone has a VRS would you let me know if it's worth the money and time? I had Dragon a year or two after it came out and was not too happy with it. I just wonder if there have been improvements. I probably won't use it for med trans but have an idea to use it for data entry which I also do. Thanks!
Yes, it was bad, but they can take an every horrible voice
and make it better in a recording. She does not have a horrible voice, just not the strong voice that she THINKS she has. It will be a lot better when released on a DVD, just watch and see.
TAYLOR ALL THE WAY TO WIN!!!

Some people have asked if it was possible to install Dragon on their system and then play the physician's dictation into the microphone. (wouldn't that be nice?) Well, things have moved that much closer to this happening.
There is a product called TranscriptionAID, which is sold by TranscriptionGear (click on link below). It is used in conjunction with DNS. I think the article is fairly self-explanatory.

I tried it years ago and it was a joke. I'm sure the technology has improved so I would like to know too. I may have to look at it again.
EHR and voice recognition
I don't know about the EHR part, but I know the voice recognition part is not true. Many doctors still do not like voice recognition from previous years when it was introduced, and many will never be able to use it. Dictating so that it is understood by a computer program is a skill that many doctors will never have (or take the time to develop).
Also, even if everyone did go to voice recognition, the work would still need to be edited. I have used voice recognition in my work, and it takes a long time to train, and even then it gets confused because it cannot 'think.' It also makes many errors that are hard to catch without very diligent proofreading.
Voice Recognition
Has anyone worked for a company that does voice recognition? Is it easy to get used to the software. I have a job offer and would like some input.
Voice Recognition
I worked at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville and they had a pilot program for voice recognition. Two transcriptionists spent their day editing and proofreading for a couple of doctors who had been hand picked for their clear English. Around the time I left, the program was being scrapped due to too many bugs in the system, too time consuming for the transcriptionists and just not cost effective. It's going to be a long time before they figure out how to make it work - thanks to foreign-speaking doctors
voice files
Yes, mine are emailed too. They are usually .dvf or .wav files.. Call GearPlayer from that website I posted and ask if this is compatible for you. If so then purchase it and call them back to be walked through downloading to your computer (I download to a folder named "Work to be Typed" by "Saving Target As." )
Voice Recognition & EMR
I am starting to be concerned about EMR and voice recognition taking our jobs. I wonder if they will even need us in 5 years. I know most hospitals tell everyone they will still need them as editors, but surely it will eliminate many jobs or they would not be willing to incur the expense of the new systems. What do you think?
