Title: brightspeech trial problem please help
Post by: freddy888 on May 02, 2005, 03:57:40 am

hi - i'm new hear but wonder if some kind soul could help.

I downloaded the brightspeech standard trial (on modem-ages!!!) and it all instals fine BUT when you come to the license screen and try to click the 30 day trial it just says it can't do it.

i'm a bit miffed because it took ages to download and I'm now hoping it won't have been a waste of time!

thanks if anyone can help much appreciated.

this site looks good by the way!

I never heard of Brightspeech, but I looked up some requirements for the Brightspeech voice.

Do you use one of the following OS's: "Windows 98SE, NT4SP6, 2000SP3, Me, XP, Mac OSX.2 and higher."

Is your computer at least a "Pentium III 500 Mhz, 256 Mb RAM"
or, if a Macintosh: a "Power Mac G3 800MHz, 256 MB RAM"?

Do you know if you have "MS SAPI 4.0a (Win32), MS SAPI 5.1b (Win32)" already installed?

Raymond,

Brightspeech is the engine for Babel Technologies.
The TTS voices were pretty good, unfortunately their
prices were not.

The License Manager must be downloaded and installed before installing the speech program!
