Title: Speech recognition problem? Help pls.
Post by: vonsmith on October 24, 2003, 12:02:23 pm
I've had a lot of fun with Hal thus far, but I haven't tried voice recognition until v5.0.55 came out. My XP system has SAPI4 & 5 installed. All the Microsoft and L&H voices are installed. I used the XP wizard to set the headset microphone level. I did about 20 minutes of speech engine training. But something is not working.

When I run Hal and select "Use speech recognition (You speak to Hal)" I can select the Microsoft SR engine, mic settings and training. However when I try to actually talk to Hal no words get entered into the user entry window. If I type something after a few seconds the entry is accepted without the need for a carriage return (enter key).

Am I missing something obvious or what? What links the mic and SR software to Hal's input window?

Thanks in advance,
