Spanish speech recognition windows xp

Oron J Type "Windows Speech Recognition" in the search box and start the program. A wizard will take you through the setup process. The results allegedly are quite good I don't use it myself as I type faster and quieter than I talk! Drsunil V Thanks. Please tell how to install speech recognition of windows 8 in windows 7? Inquisit however needs a SAPI 5 compliant engine to work with. Nuance have said they'd eventually switch to SAPI 5, but that announcement was made years ago and no further info or release dates have been made public.

Group: Administrators Posts: 2, Visits: Hi Luis, We haven't tried using Dragon yet, although it would probably be worth our while to do so.

To get this to work, try the following: 1 Go to Windows Control Panel and select the Speech configuration applet 2 If you have Vista, select "Advanced speech options".

Now, Inquisit should use the Dragon engine for all recognition functions. The wizard will collect voice samples from you so that it can adjust to your particular speaking style. Finally, at the bottom of the Speech Recognition tab, you can configure microphone settings. Keep in mind that speech recognition performance is dependent on the type of microphone you are using and different microphones will have specific requirements.

The Microphone Wizard will appear once you click the Configure Microphone button. The wizard will walk you through the process of configuring and testing your microphone for use with speech recognition.

Assuming that you have completed all the tasks described above, you are almost ready to start using speech recognition in Windows XP. On the Languages tab, click the Details button. The Text Services and Input Languages dialog box will appear. Under Installed services, select Speech Recognition and click the Properties button. The Speech input settings dialog box will appear as shown in Figure D. Click OK after you have configured the Advanced settings.

The Language Bar button is used to configure how you want the Language Bar to appear. The available options include the following:. Place a check beside the Extend support of advanced text services to all programs. Click OK and click Yes to restart your computer. After logging on, the Language Bar will now appear on the desktop and you can begin talking to your computer. At this point, you need to know a little about the two different input modes: Dictation and Voice Command.

Dictation Mode is used when you want the words you speak turned into text. For example, instead of typing a document, you can use Dictation mode. For that reason, not all the resulting dialog boxes will look the same. It is possible that no special features have been included and some of the properties buttons will not have an associated dialog box.

To change views, follow these steps:. Speakers vary greatly in design and purpose. Consult the speaker manual for hardware and software specifics. However, most models can be installed in a similar fashion. To set up speakers, follow these steps:. Locate the sound connections and connect the speaker jack to the computer.

Most computers use an internal sound card and often the connections are in the back of the computer. These are a series of connections the same size and diameter as the speaker jack.

In many cases there are two sound out connections:. One will be labeled as a line-out connection. Most speakers that require a separate power supply such as an electrical AC adapter or batteries should use this connection. It is also used to export amplified sound to recording devices including recordable CDs and tape cassette systems. The other connection is for the non-powered speakers.

Because the signal is boosted by the computer, powered speakers may be damaged if connected. On the Text-to-Speech tab, click Preview Voice to hear the currently selected voice. The text is spoken and the words are highlighted as they are spoken. If the speakers are working properly, you will hear the spoken words. If you do not hear sound after you connect the speakers, see the "Possible Text-to-Speech Problems" section of this article for troubleshooting procedures.

Select either Use preferred audio output device or Use this audio output device. Use preferred audio device sets the output device as the default for the system. Select this option if you want to use the same output device for speech as all other sound for the system. It is also the default option for Speech properties. Often, computers will have only one output device, such as a pair of speakers. The default device is designated in the appropriate sounds or multimedia properties in Control Panel for each operating system.

Additional information for the specific panel is available through the associated Help files. Use this audio output device allows you to select another device for speech programs only. The drop-down list is active if other devices are available. In this drop-down list, select the device that you want. This does not change the default device for other audio programs. For example, you may want all speech output to go through your headset rather than the speakers.

By default, this option is disabled. However, other speech engines may include advanced properties for audio line out options. If so, Audio Output will be available.
