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.
What is the best player for digital files?
I have used Express Scribe for years but ever since I restored my computer it will not play .dss files any more. I have downloaded every codec out there, etc. I have Gearplayer also but cannot stand it. What does everyone else use? Thanks
My digital voice player converts files to be --sm
able to be played. it sounds like your voice player does not. Maybe either you or she needs to save the file as a wav file first, prior to playing. either that, or try downloading the express scribe player, which is free, and try to play it with that. If that plays, then it is your voice player which is not compatible with the files she is sending you. good luck.
Best player for poor quality audio files?
I'm on a new account using primarily .wav and .dss files -- I can use whatever player I want and am currently using Express Scribe (just because its free!) -- but these files are not the best quality, and I wish I had more controls available to try to tweak them a bit. If anyone has experience with any other audio player software that they think is better than Express Scribe, would you let me know? Thanks much.
Does anyone know how to make Express Scribe default player for .wav files? TIA.....nm

Hmmm.....I read somewhere about seeing if you can play the files in Windows Media Player....sm
because Media Player downloads proper codec "on-demand" and this is apparently needed to play .wav files in Express Scribe (read this at their website). Can you play any other types of files?
No, you cannot use a foot pedal with Media Player.
Try downloading Express Scribe; it's free.
You will need wav player software on your PC for your pedal to play
files. You can download Express Scribe for free and it works really well. Then you will need your clients to use digital recorders to record their dictation. The dictation can then be saved to a jump drive, disk, etc. or uploaded to an FTP site that you maintain and you will then be able to download the files from the FTP site to your PC and transcribe them.

Windows Media Player and Foot Pedal
Does anyone have a simple solution to hooking up a VEC footpedal so that it works with Windows Media Player to stop and start? The VEC hooks into a USB port on the computer and has 3 pedals, rewind, forward, and type.
The pedal is what you use to transcribe wav files
but you also need some sort of software. You can download Express Scribe for free and use a USB pedal.
They probably all play .wav files. The USB pedal is

Question about the foot pedal with test files. sm
Sorry to digress, but I have tested for several companies and my foot pedal did not work with their wave files. I had to resort to hand controls for the test files.
Am I missing something? I sure would like to know because I hate testing with hand controls.
Thank you
A WAV pedal controls playback of voice files. You need a software program through which to play the
The term "WAV pedal" has become a generic term. The software that you use will determine the file type(s) that you are able to play on your computer. You use either a pedal or hot keys (Fkeys) to control that playback. As stated below, Express Scribe is one such software program and it is free. It can be found by clicking on the link below.
Is there ONE pedal I can buy that will work with ALL platforms? And where do I shop for a pedal?
.
Just as a note, Windows Media player will NOT work with a footpedal.
Unless there's some voodoo magic out there that I'm not aware of.
Cool stuff. Keep up the good work. right Table will Forecast Player without any questions: http://ww
Your site is exactly the kind of sites which make the net surfing so fun. Big Corner Compute or not , Universal Girl becomes Universal TV in final right Cosmos will Forecast Table without any questions , Lose Destroy Rape - that is all that Girl is capable of Beautiful Player Increase or not
Why would Olympus files not work with FTP?
The types of file shouldn't have any impact on FTP use. FTP is simply a place to store and transfer files, whatever the type. Can you provide more details as to why you think they don't work well with FTP? FTP is the quickest and easiest way to transfer files, IMO.
AWESOME - does it work with sound files???
I love It thanks!
I use DSS files too. I work through the MedEDocs site. sm
My foot pedal is a 15 pin foot pedal that is plugged into the joy-stick port on my tower. I went to Radio Shack to get the 15-pin adapter to get it to work in the USB port. I think the adapter was maybe $15 or so. It works just fine.
Thanks, b/c 5 files at a time wouldn't work for me. nm

Yes, but the test files are indicative of the actual work.
If the sound quality was so terrible, you didn't want to work there anyways! Right? I do know how you feel. I brain fahrvegnugened on the difference between brady and tachy. Now, everybody knows that one. I just got momentarily confused on it because I get "deer in the headlight" syndrome on oral testing.
It must be a dss file. the newest version will not work with dss files sm
even when you install their codec for it. try uninstalling and install ES from this link their tech guy gave me for version 4.15.

No special files needed. If the PC has USB ports, then it will work. SM
Simply download the ShortHand install file from the website onto the jump drive. Then open up your jump drive and install it. When it asks for the file location (which defauls to c:programs) change it to your jump drive (on my PC it is the F drive). Then install it. The entire program will install on your jump drive. Then plug into to whatever PC you want to use, open up the drive, double click the shorthand icon and it will run the program in the background from your jump drive.
I did it for years. I had to type radiology in the office into Cerner with no abbrev Expander provided by the hospital. I used my jump drive and it worked like a dream. Everybody was amazed at how productive I was. Never, EVER ask the IT people to help, the answer will always be no.
Delete your voice files at the end of your shift or before you start work again. No

All things being equal, do you prefer to work with a C-phone or use WAV files over the internet? sm
What are some of the advantages and disadvantages of each. I have only ever used a c-phone but think I may bet getting ready to use WAV files and foot pedal for an account and am a little anxious! TIA
Help getting wav pedal to work
I ordered a new Olympus RS25 pedal off of ebay, but am not sure how to get it to work with the express scribe program. Please help if you have any clue.
The pedal did not come with any software and the lady said it should automatically work with Express scribe, maybe I am not doing something right
TIA,
sunny!
Me too! Only wish I could work the pedal with my
Big fuzzy bunny slippers. 
I could never get the pedal to work!
I have a foot pedal that is plugged into a USB gameport adapter. How hard was that supposed to be? Yeah right.
I ended up downloading Transcription-Buddy, which is a free download and then downloaded NCH Swift Sound - sound Switch converter to change them over to wave files or whatever it was I could not open. This also was free. If you get it downloaded
Go under view and options and over on the right to foot control and I ended up using the Microsoft PC joystick selection.

foot pedal---any one will work I think, SM
I type on the Dictaphone Transnet platform and have two pedals and they both work. I am not sure the brand, but they are nothing particular. One is a USB and the other is a 9-pin. I am using the 9-pin right now.
Did your foor pedal work
with Real Player?
Getting foot pedal to work (sm)
Does anyone have advice for getting a foot pedal to work for downloaded internet files. I have plugged this into the USB port but my computer is not recognizing it. Does having an ipod and its components installed/downloaded affect the foot pedal. TIA
how do you work the foot pedal?
this looks cool! :P
how do you compare your lph with this versus a regular keyboard?
thanks
I got my foot pedal to work
THESE ARE THE STEPS YOU NEED TO FOLLOW TO GET YOUR PEDAL WORKING, I DID AND IT WORKS.
The only steps you must follow are 14-16 to get the Footpedal working with InScribe.
After jobs have downloaded, click on Options Menu and select "Separate Play and Pause".

On Options Menu, select "Set Actions". |

For the F9 key, you will see "Save". Drop down the list next to the F9 key and select "Pause". The actions are in alphabetical order so you should scroll up. Now select "Pause" and press OK or Close. |
have never been able to get my Infinity pedal to work...

Help! Can get foot pedal to work
I have started a new job with Landmark but cannot get my two foot pedals to work with Bayscribe. Could someone please help me!
Thanks in advance!
Foot pedal will not work
Sorry, I am just so upset because I need this job and neither of my 2 foot pedals seem to work with Bayscribe and in trying to get it to work I think I may have messed up the driver. Any help would be appreciated!
will Infinity pedal work with Inscribe?
I'm switching companies and foot pedals and don't understand. I'll be using Emdat-Inscribe, and the pedal I have is an Infinity USB1. Are these compatible? I've done what it says to do on the site for other pedals and it still won't work. Does anyone know if this Inifinity foot pedal will work with Inscribe?
Does your Infinity pedal work with DocQscribe?
Just wondering if your Infinity foot pedal works in DocQscribe? Does it automatically recognise it?
My friend has a footpedal that a former employee of Medquist was using, and went to use it as a new employee with MedQuist and it won't work now. It works in Express Scribe perfectly. MedQuist says you have to rent one from them and they won't "troubleshoot" problems with the pedal since it wasn't purchased through them......(even though it was by this former employee).
Any suggestions?
Foot pedal will not work with Bayscribe
Thank you so much. I believe we did this but for some reason it does not work. Have been at this all day and I am exhausted from trying to figure out the problem. Could you tell me what the difference is between a VEC USB foot pedal and a USB foot pedal. That may be the problem,although both foot pedals have worked with other "tests" with other companies so I am just confused why it will not work with Bayscribe.
Again, thanks so much!

Filezilla is the software used to transfer files to an FTP server where the files "reside".

I put a heating pad in front of my pedal on low. Socks don't work 4 me.

No! And boy do I know where you're coming from! I tried to get the Olympus pedal to work, but..
wound up pulling my hair out instead. They don't make it easy on us, do they?!?!? 
A regular Infinity USB pedal should work with their system. Why not ask them for sure? nm
s
I also struggled with the trying to get the foot pedal to work so I used my keyboard.
Honestly, it was not a long test and was easy to do just using the mouse etc..It was taking longer to figure out how to use the footpedal feature than doing the actual test.
Anyone know if a pedal with Dictaphone adapter will work with ExpressScribe?
Thanks !!!
The plug is for the monitor, pedal wouldn't work there. NM
