Okay.. I've tried Windows Media and Real Player.. nothing.. still saying I need codecs.
I've never had this problem playing a test before. I am not sure what the deal is. I hate to give up .. but...
After all these years, if I use Media Player, I just have my test outline ready and play the voice
m
make sure your player is set to play

Just click on Play then click on Play again to pause dictation
I'm working in Bayscribe right now and that appears to be the only way to do it.

Play to play
Play again to pause
Play again to start play again

Hope that helps.
The corporate media
they are ALL ABOUT protecting other corporations - and censoring the news is what they do best. Just look at bush.
Doesn't do any good to go to the media; i.e., TV

I sent letters and emails and watched their programs.Never a word mentioned.


One idea might be a Letter to the Editor of your local newspapers. That should get some people riled up in the local area. That's my next step. Government agencies aren't going to help. They're the ones who want this, so big business can profit.


 


Oreilly is an even bigger media
hore. Yes, and so are the ones on the so-called 'left'. And if you think ANY of them give a flip about you or America, you are easily fooled.

The are full-time propagandists - all of them. And they are laughing all the way to the bank.
You could threaten to involve the media in their area.

windows
Does anyone know what is better Vista windows or XP windows. I need to know because I am getting a computer.
They also have windows to work in.
They also offer 12-hour windows for an 8-hour shift or 10-hour windows for a 7-hour shift.  That's pretty flexible in my book! 
I use ShortCut for Windows also...

I found it simpler to use than ShortHand (I also had downloaded the free trial and decided not to buy).  BUT with ShortCut I have problems having it expand words.  I called tech support and he said to turn off AutoCorrect in any programs I have running (I had to re-do my Expanders from AutoCorrect to ShortCut but I'm sure if I had wanted to spend the time I could have copied them from AC to SC).  Tech also said to open ShortCut BEFORE any other programs.


Anyways, sometimes ShortCut will not expand a word.  I then have to use backspace up to the last letter of the previous word, then space, then type the short form.  It will expand if I do this.  That is extra Keystrokes that should be unnecessary. 


Bottom line, for me is.....I use ShortCut because it is simple to use and I did not have time to learn a new Expander program.


Maybe ANON has fixed this on his/her program.  Would like to know.


They do have 12-hour windows, but
it all depends on the account you work on.  the only shift they have open right now is 2nd.
Wav Player
Oh they will send it to you if you request it -- by testing you they get their work done free of charge.
They also recommend ShortCut for Windows. nm

Windows XP - do you have to do the Microscoft upgrade? (sm)

I've heard it's flawed and am afraid to do the time change upgrade.  Will it show that all the reports I do are an hour ahead?  I work on Ex-Text.


Short Cut for Windows and Webmedx
Does anyone know if Short Cut for Windows is compatible with Webmedx's Enterprise program?  Hoping to take it with me when I leave the Q............
new computer -Windows Vista sm
Will I have trouble finding a company that can use this??  TIA
Definately shorthand for windows---sm
This is hands down the best Expander I have ever used. If it works with the platform I work on (dinosaur) it will work on anything, or with anything. here is a direct link to website to download:

http://www65.pair.com/lim/shorthand/sh10dnload.html

you can have a 30 day free trial. If you wish to purchase after 30 days, you have several options for payment. I chose 29.99 a year with free upgrades. I don't know of any other expander software out there that could beat that in performance or price, and I have tried quite a few...InstanText, Smarttype, etc. I am extremely happy with ShortHand and cannot say enough about it. It works just like autotext and is so easy. give it a shot!

Need tips for converting PRD for DOS to Shortcuts for Windows, please. sm

How can I best start "cleaning up" a copy of my beloved PRD for DOS  to make for a less-hassle conversion to Shortcut for Windows?  Many of the headers in my PRD have special DOS characters for bolding, and I don't think they will be useable.   For many of my glossary entries, I use slash marks (i.e., cad/ for coronary artery disease).  Are the slash marks a problem in Shortcut?  If so,  what's a good character to substitute (a "q" maybe??).  Thanks for any suggestions.  I'm trying to make this conversion in a month just a tiny bit sane.


Ever been fired from Keystrokes because of Windows Vista?
I just spent $1000 on all new equipment including a new computer with Windows Vista which is what they recommended as their program is compatible with Vista. When the computer tech had to spend hours on my computer getting it to work with Vista, a certain administrator let me go because it wouldn't work for their account.  I am in tears.  I've never been fired from a job, especially for something that I was asked to do to work for them.

Does anyone know if ChartScript is compatible with Windows Vista?
I just ordered a new HP laptop with Windows Vista, and I was wondering if anyone knows if the ChartScript.net platform will run on Vista without any problems. I want to be able to take my laptop with me when I travel so that I can work on the road.
They flew out the MTSOs' and the hospitals' windows
BTW - Ever hear of that old,
'He who casts the first stone' saying?
What if any companies use the DVI VoiceWave Player
to download jobs.  I find it very easy, efficient and fast with good sound quality.  Just wonder if there are any other companies using it, as I will be leaving the company I presently work for.
Their ad says only 6-8 cpl and you need Start/Stop Player. nm

I've just used the player part
and it was fine, but what I've heard about the rest of the program is that it's terrible.


Little box for transnet player question. (sm)

Is there a way to move this box up to the top of the screen and out of the way of the document so you can leave it open while typing report?   Hate to call Tech support if it is really something simple.  I tried to just move it, but can't seem to get it done.


Any help appreciated.


Transnet Player Not Working
I have a USB pedal, which normally works with just about everything, but cannot get it to work with the Transnet player.  When I manually click on the play arrow on the player itself, it plays, but not with the pedal.  What could be wrong?
ExText Transnet Player
First of all when the player comes up click Alt+T to keep player on top. Next click Alt+M to remember position.

1. Alt+V = Volume. Move left/right arrow keys to increase or decrease.
2. Alt+P = Play. Move left/right keys as above to increase or decrease.
3. Alt+A = Auto backspace. Same principles as above.
4. Alt+R = Rewind.
5. Alt+F = Forward.

Hope this helps.
Ex-Spheris MT, HITS is a windows-based application...

you will type in.  It is very, very user friendly.  Frankly, it is the only aspect I miss about working for Healthscribe/Spheris.  Good luck!!


Question for Escriptionist. I need a new computer. All the new ones have Windows Vista. Is this
compatible with the EditScript platform. Seems I have read that some platforms are not compatible with the new Windows Vista, yet that is all I am finding when computer shopping.
Do you have Real player...works fine on that
nm
Any companies hiring IC that use the VoiceWave Player,
and pays 10 cpl minimum.   Thanks.
Mine opened on Real Player.. but I'm not doing them either. nm

Phoenix Medcom, pedal and player
InScribe compatible - any ideas where to get these? Or what the learning curve is on the software? Can I use my old Expander or import it somehow?
Which shortcut program works best with Windows-based Meditech?nm

LOL!! DVD player for staying more than one week!!!GOOD Grief!!!
Must be really awful!!!
Bytescribe is not a platform, just a digital voice player - sm
That said I have always liked it, but it only allows 3 installations, which I have used up on mine, after that you have to get permission from them. I need to do that as my computer crashed and am now unable to reinstall it, a real pain in the butt. I have heard you have to purchase additional installations after 3 but don't know about that as of yet. But it is a very versatile program/player, places every type of voice file that I have ever needed it to (.dss, .wav, Playall).
I got it to open on Real Player but I didn't do it. The tests
had patient names etc.. I suspect they wanted free work done and then had a 24-hour turnaround. No thanks. I smell a rat.
You must be psychic. I just ended up going on Ebay today and bought a Dell with Windows XP on it.
I originally went through Dell directly but they charged $400 more for the same computer because they were customizing it with Windows XP as now all the computer came standard with Vista. Apparently not so customized..haha.. better deals on Ebay.. I LOVE EBAY..
They play a lot of games. Pay was on
time, but they do have their favorites who get the good work. Used to run out of work all the time and have to wait for more overflow to come in, so bailed out.
Play favorites.....
pay is good, but they still play favorites and some typists make off like bandits on cream of the crop dictators while the rest of you get the scum.
It all boils down to who will play the game
There have been a lot of good MTs at OSI. Most of those who do excellent work and have years of experience have left OSi because of tactics such as this. She may have a good work ethic and sunny disposition and do good work but is not in a better position to supervise other MTs who are better all around. The point is that people new to either the MT industry or to OSI are most often the ones promoted because they are most assuredly YES people since they don't have enough experience to know any better that OSI consistently does things such as break the wage and hour law among other things.
Unless you have another way to play your voice files, use
s
Can't play the game unless you have the equipment.

Express Scribe does play that!(sm)
Not sure about Gear Player, but in open Express Scribe and go to settings, and then settings, and go to the tab files, and you should be able to check the box there. You can also go to the WMA file right click and select open with and then select your Express Scribe. Good luck on the test!
Two companies that do not play games
are MDI-MD and Landmark. Good honest people at both companies.
