Real Player
Does anyone know what Real Player is, or how it it used?
Real Player
It can be used to listen to music, videos, and you can listen to audio through it for transcription, but I know my foot pedal doesn't work with it. It actually came on my computer when I got it.
Can a footpedal be set up with Real Player?
I have always used Express Scribe to play my doctors dictation. I have a new laptop with Vista and have been having problems getting my audio to load. Anyways, I heard that some people have used Real Player. If so, how would you set up a Start Stop footpedal to work with it?
Does anyone else have any free or fairly cheap player programs to suggest that can get used with the Stop Start footpedal.
Starting job using Olympus Player/pedal - does this have a good player with slow down speeds - I do
Until now I have always used company software with player included. I hate to spend money and find out the player is mickey mouse!!
Thanks- you may e-mail me if you prefer.
Cook it real slow at real low heat; simmer, don't boil.

No, parents don't usually sit there through football practices.
Games, yes. Practice, no. Cut the apron strings already. The kid would probably get teased with Mommy on the bench every single day watching him practice. It's just not done when kids hit middle school and high school. Let the coach do his job without parental scrutiny.
Fall is my favorite also - love Football!

Louisiana State University. Not a football fan?

I watched the game and have been a football fan for 40+ years.
excuse-making sore loser like you are.
Again, grow up.
RAMS football, spend time with 10-mo old grandson
Yes, it is opening day for football in St. Louis, fall is right around the corner.
My grandson is at that handful stage, hard to get anything done with him around but I volunteered to babysit while his parents are out Saturday night. Hope to squeeze in a few hours Sat and Sun for work as well.
How about cheerleaders and football players..no..wait..just kidding! nm

Son's Football Game and Daughter's Volleyball Tournament sm
both High School sports. The busy schedule begins!
My DH thought football shoud be postponed and all stadiums opened for evacuees.

My son loves Monster drinks before football/basketball practice. I think they are nasty.
I don't drink coffee, but I have to have my Coca Cola first thing in the morning and one more halfway through day. So I guess I am a little dependent on caffeine!
Sports - 1 sport a season. Fall = football for son and volleyball for daughter. sm
Their class load and homework is enough; however, the love sports and are great at too. So, I allow one sport per season, meaning Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. Fall = football and volleyball.
Winter = swimming and winter volleyball.
Spring = Lacrosse for both.
Summer = whatever they choose.
They choose what they want and if they choose not to do a sport any particular season, that is fine with me. They do not go out on school nights and their weekend activity is limited due to their sports. It works, and they stay out of trouble and both are on the honor roll.
Too many activities is just too stressful both all. My kids will tell me when they feel burnt and need a day off and I am fine with that. I tell them to stay home that day from practice.
It works for us.
another player
I also have Audacity (for my legal work). PC World has several listed as well. You might try this link: http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,22513,00.asp
She said she had a DVD player for the car so it would not be that bad - sm
I drive to the Philly area (4 hour drive w/o stops) with the kids at least 4 x a year. I use my laptop (my travel computer) and play movies for the kids to watch, the one reason I bought a laptop with a DVD drive. It is great. My husband built a little table to put the computer on in the backseat with them (Suburban so plenty of room), and some of the time the kids play with their Barbies, read, gameboys, Pixtar, etc. and the other part they watch a movie or 2 (they are short movies for the most part). The trip is not too bad, and the kids don't fight, wonderful. Takes about 4.5-5 hours depending on how many food and pee stops, I carry a potty seat with me so that helps save some time and I can stop anywhere basically. So it is possible to make it pleasant, of course the kids will want/need to run about a bit when you get there after sitting strapped in all that time, but they will be fine otherwise, and I speak from much experience in this as I have been doing this for 7+ years now. The DVD player makes a BIG difference in how smoothly a long drive goes.
What .wav player are you using?
.
wav player
 Sorry to change the subject and hope this is the right board. But, I have a problem. I was testing with 2 reports to transcribe. My wav player only would let me do the first one. It is rather hard to explain but I could not access the 2nd file. I shut my computer off and tried again but it would not let me have access to it. Does anybody know what I mean? The file is unzipped and I can click on it but no audio comes up. This is on both. I just got this player and, of course, cannot find the directions so if anyone can help I would appeciate it.
I have DSS player, the doc who uses
it has a dock that is attached to his computer, he puts his player in the dock and it is able to send the voice files to my computer. Not sure all the mechanics of it on his end, but if your docs have used it before they should already have the dock and be able to send.
Dss Player for Mac
Olympus dss player for mac is tho only mac compatible program. Purchas the AS2300 kit for around $199.
What is the best .wav player
I currently use Express Scribe and wanted to get some opinions on other .wav players out there as far as dictation sound quality goes.
Thanks!!
Are you using a player with it?
Not sure if you're asking about programming your pedal, or if you've done that and it still won't work.
If that's the case, make sure you've checked the correct player. After you sign on, click options and then select the player you're using.
Vxp player?
Has anyone been able to install VXP player on Vista?
WAV player
Does anyone have any favorite WAV players that work with a foot pedal? I have Express Scribe, but the sound quality is not the best. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
perhaps it's not the player...
perhaps it's the recording itself. or your headphones/speakers. I use Express Scribe and some files are clear as a bell, some are muffled...it all depends on the file format, the recording device, etc...in other words not on your end but on the dictator's end.
I don't know for sure if a different player
would make a difference, but I do know that if you use USB headphones versus one that plugs into your speakers or the round outlets on your computer the wound will be better. It won't be a huge difference, but if you try it for a month and then go back to regular phones you'll notice a difference. You can probably get a headset for around $30. There is also a thing called Audio Advantage by Turtle Beach (you can google). It is pretty much the same thing as above, it turns your regular headset in USB ones, but you also have some software on your computer where you can manipulate the sound. It takes a little bit of playing with to get it just right though. I have a company supplied computer and not allowed to be anything on my computer. I'm using the headset part, just can't use the software now, but it is still better than using your sound card. I got it at Best Buy for around $30 a couple of years ago.
Try FTR Player Plus...SM
For the Record player, it plays wav files...you can download it at: http://www.fortherecord.com/page.asp?pageid=222
It is free.
It's just a wav player, that's all. NM

DSS Player
I have been using the DSS Player 2002 for a couple of years. It plays DSS, WMA, and WAV files. I haven't had any trouble with it at all but it is rather expensive.
VF player
HELP!! Is anyone familiar with VF Player from BCB voice systems? My boss sent it to me to load on my PC so that I could pick up some extra work and I can't get it to work. I am running Windows XP, is that why?
Anyone using Gear player?
Sounds like a really good package deal, anyone using it? I am thinking of using the digital recorder and buying the gear player package.
TIA,
Sunny
No you don't have to buy it. If you don't have a compatible player - sm
that can play "PlayAll" files then they will supply the PlayAll XTRA player, though they do ask you send them a CD for it I believe. They supply the WP DOS 5.1, Stedman's Spellcheck via email. That is why I said don't let the question throw you, you don't have to buy anything.....unless you are new of course, then you will need a footpedal. Bytescribe is compatible with the sound files and that is what I use, I also have a copy of the PlayAll which I use to pull up the file information I need to transcribe, but it won't work if you have Bytescribe on your computer. I love my Bytescribe so it stays. They will train in in the use of WP 5.1 and they hire newbies too. I started to work for them with 2 months of experience....it will be 4 years in May since I began working for them. As I said good people, I appreciate them as much as they appreciate me.
That's true but if you already have a player
like Start Stop or something else, and you only need DocShuttle to be able to download files, then you don't need their wav player. You can just open them in your own player and mark them complete (and attach for upload if the company works it that way) when you're done.
I use Olympus Player every day and like it SM
much better Express Scribe!
Try downloading this player
http://www.olympus-europa.com/consumer/2590_4694.htm
It should open the file and then maybe you can change the format of the file back to a wav file.
Suggestion for wav player
I have Express Scribe wav player but cannot get it to SLOW DOWN the dictator using keyboard control. anyone have suggestion? Which wav player would you suggest investing in? TU
But can you use foot player with that?
sdf
I never got rid of my tape-player or my -sm
typewriter. You just never know what sort of disaster could come up in the future, where those things would be a real life-saver. And amazingly, PCs never increased my daily work output. It actually DECREASED a bit once we went to PCs.
Gear Player is also...
an alternative.
gear player--sm
i downloaded the free 5 day trial of gear player to take a test. Cannot get it to work. The icon is on my desktop, but when i try to open it to drop the voice file in, it only appears for a few seconds and then nothing. any ideas??
Gear Player is the best.
I have been using Gear Player for 4 years now and it just keeps getting better. It plays what I need it to play. I had tried StartStop before Gear Player and it was like I was back on Windows 95. Above all I love Gear Players support department, the guys are very friendly and can fix anything if you ever do need to call them.
I used their wave player when I had an
account with .dss files. It worked fine.
Cont: Cannot use outside player such as
Gear Player,
Gear Player, Transcription Gear, several places have those for sale. Also on E-Bay.
While I cannot recommend one particular player, (sm)
I can tell you this. The quality of the DAC (digital-to-analog converter)is PARAMOUNT when assessing sound quality. Sound is contingent on the attributes & quality of: 1)the digital file, 2)the DAC chip***; 3)amount of distortion and other interference from the device's other circuitry, and 4)the audio output level of your headphones and/or speakers. Take ALL of the above factors into consideration when asking a recruiter about what player they utilize. Good Luck.
wav player program
Yeah, sounds like the same problem, but I have tried the same as you and then there are times that that does not even help. I am jus to where I just have to keep loading the file. I even let the Start/Stop load completely to where it looks for updates and that does not stop this issue.
Bytescribe player
You can just buy the player. I use it and found it to play all files even those pesky ds2 files from Olympus that I get, which nothing else will play. I also love the tech support; always get a response. I have used GearPlayer also in the past and found it okay, but the files it will play are limited. HTH.
anyone use Olympus player?? sm
I've used it for years and all of a sudden when I go to transcribe the file I have highlighted, the player disappears. The "player and slider" do not stay "on top" of the WORD document. I can minimize it and open it that way, but it is a pain. I want it "on top" of the document so I can see progress of the file. As it is now, I "can't see it" and therefore can't open or close it. anyone know what happened? TIA
GEAR PLAYER---I was going to put it on e-Bay, but...sm
Email me if you are interested. I'll give you a great deal on it! It was brand new when I bought it and used it only for about a month.
Please let me know either way. I need the $$. Thanks!
I'm offered a new accout using MP3 player.....
The provider is using the player with his curernt MT. The parent company wants me to assume his account. I've asked what method he is using currently to get his dictation to the MT to see what I need on my end. I already have a Bytescribe wave player that plays MP3s, so that is not a problem. What other software can be used to get the dictation from him to me and still fall within HIPAA guidelines?
