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?
Digital Voice voicewave player
Is anyone familar with the digital voice voicewave player? Do you have any idea of the pricing for software and license? I got a quote and was blown away. Just wanted to check that it is correct.
too late but for future. Need to know what voice player you are using. sm
It won't work on Emdat inscribe so you need another one in place.
Express scribe is a free download, another poster explained what screen you see and what to click. Save to your desktop so you can fine it. You can use hot keys instead of a pedal. You need to go into the setting and click - work with current word processer so it opens up Word for you. you can bring up the empress scribe up on desktop and move out of way so you can open your email with the voice file, at the same time, you can drag and drop over to your express scribe player. Means, Center over file with mouse, hold it down and drag it over to the area and lift off. It drops it right in the player. If you get stuck email me darleneh1111@earthlink.net

I have Start Stop digital voice player--sm
and Spyware Doctor, as well. I have never had any conflicts between the two, and I really do not see why one would interfere with the other. although, I do not leave Spyware Doctor on all the time. I leave it off while I am working, as it did tend to slow things down a bit, but I never had any problems with it. I do run a nightly scan with Spyware Doctor though. I would be careful of other Spyware programs. I have had others that claim to remove spyware from your computer but actually do absolutely nothing. I believe the one I am thinking of is Spyware Eliminator, but I am not sure right off the top of my head. Good luck.
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.

Can you get the file to your desktop to see if Media Player will play it, just so you know
s
Or send the file to your desktop and then import into your player from there. Easy

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".
D/l them onto zip file and take with you. Voice

you need to change your properties of those file types to open with ES and not media player. sm
go to your folders by start, explore. find where you saved those files to. once you find a file, right click on it and click on properties. under the general tab, look down 3 lines to where it says open with and i bet it says media player. click change, find the express scribe program. make sure you check that box under there that says always use this program to open this type of file. then you can either right click again, click open with, select express scribe and it will automatically load in ES or you can hit the load button on ES, find where the file is saved, select and it loads it. if this doesn't work, email me.
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.
I've just used the wav player part, and it works fine.
I have not heard good things about the rest of the product. I have used Winscribe wav pedal with RIS Logic for radiology. Terrific combination!
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.
Way to increase/decrease voice file.

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.
How much does it cost to buy a great voice activated program...
Does anyone know how much an accurate voice activated program costs? If so, does it take a long time to train it to your voice? Will you still need to make a lot of corrections due to misinterpreted words? Is it worth buying compared to typing it out?
Thank you for any and all advice. : )
whatever works for you, that's great, and what works for me is great too

works great for me. nm

great when it works
We live in the midwest and with wind, rain, etc., the picture would die. One night we were under a tornado warning and watching the Weather Channel and it just went fuzzy.
Yes and yes it works great! nm

Well if it works for you that's great!
I've never tried it myself, but might just out of curiosity. : )
MetaboLife works great for me! nm

I use Shorthand. It works great in there. sm
The Scribe platform is easy to use once you are used to it. My lines have doubled in the past two months. I use Shorthand for EVERYTHING.
Go to www.pcShorthand.com. There is a trial version.
Works great for smoothies too! nm

it works great for a lot of people, but
be aware that as with most medications it starts to wear off, so if it works for you, I would say go for it and don't dilly dally around with it, because one day it will not work for you, at least that is what happened to me years ago.
you have to really, really want to quit..then it works great.
I have a Belkin and it works great.

My Linksys works great!!!
I just switched to Linksys about six months ago and it works wonderfully. 
Voange works great for me! nm

Same here Linksys also. Works great..sm
and have never had any problems with it. I use it for a laptop and have a hard wired desktop pc. My daughter also runs off the Linksys and has had no problems.
Works great! Better than Vonage. SM
I found that with Vonage there was a lag when I would rewind or fast forward in a dictation. Drove me batty. Switched to Mediacom phone and it works great. No lag, clear as a bell.
I should add it works great with the fax machine too!
With Vonage I could never send or receive faxes. I kept getting "poor line quality" error messages on my fax machine.
I use MagicJack & it works great. nm

Laptop works great for me
I've been using a laptop now for over a year for full time MT. I have a Sony Vaio with plenty memory and great processor. I attach my mouse, keyboard and foot pedal and I'm good to go. I traveled over the summer and was able to work from anywhere with internet access. A great thing!
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.
Excel works great too, has a template too.

oops, meant to say it really works great for me.

I use CS and ST, works great. The CS that I use is actual Word -sm
I have heard that Chartscript net, which is the newer version, is different - more like a box that you type in instead of actual Word. I have worked for 2 places using CS now, and it implements the actual Word program. As long as it's not Chartscript net, you should be okay. When working, we're told to open our own version of Word first before we even log into CS because it will save anything there if the report you are working on is lost somehow. When I type in CS, which looks just like my Word, ST is up and running right in CS, just like when typing in my own Word program. No problems with it at all. I know what you mean.....I would haaate to work without ST too. Hope it works out for you!
I use ShortHand with my ExText. Works great! nm
