I have learned unfortunately that it is necessary to respond any post that I wanna do online without directly typing in the browser but talking into wordpad in order to get this to speech recognition to work.
I have learned unfortunately, that it is necessary to respond to any post that I want to do online, without the ability to type directly into the browser, or talk into the browser rather, but to use wordpad in order to get this speech recognition to work.
I have had some success training and program and getting to recognize my voice. It also spells everything right for the most part unless it is another word form or a word like pour POOR is spelled POUR.
Unfortunately without Microsoft word and without the intelligence of that program underlining words that do not make sense in a, incorrect nouns and verbs, for example, you end up having to say everything twice. In addition, if the program does not get what you are trying to say the first time and you forget what exactly it was you were trying to convey, you have to go back and try to read in your mind what exactly you were trying to save versus what the program was trying too quote to you as saying.
Another thing I dislike about the program, in the alternates panel when it prompts you to make a selection of one through nine you have to select or click on the selection the block and that it makes you choose OK. I really wished to simplify the process and speeded up it would just take your selection if you say one day would just go with one now be the end of it. Unfortunately it does not do that.
Also when you are spelling a word and you spell out letter by letter for example the word police POLICE and then you're going to choose OK well the program will change the spelling from POLICE two POLICEOK, which is ridiculous.Written entirely with Speech Recognition. Attached is the compressed video of the entire experience. Enjoy.
You can kinda see some of the issues with the program, mostly it's when people talk, they don't always say all the words they are thinking, little words that aren't key like ad verbs and conjunction words. Yeah I know, I'm flawed.
Why such a "thick" taskbar Dan?
I routinely ran 5-10 programs in XP, now not so much, but the clock doesn't show the date:day:time without 3 lines. I also am running in 1600x1200, So I have plenty of room for 3 task bar lines. Anyway there is your answer.
I don't want anyone to think I hate the Speech Recognition feature, I am impressed actually with it's ability to discern words correctly for the most part. I just think it is faster to type in a lot of cases.
One application where Speech Recognition would be huge, would be for the research paper, or when you are reading a book, or something already typed, out loud. The program is a master then at getting those words down on the screen/paper faster and better than even the fastest typer. I'm sure more accurately too. If MS WORD was bundled, then the program could be auto fixing the words that it mistakes, commonly too ,to, and two, for example.
Anyway.
