neil9000 Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 Hi there, i have deleted your duplicate post for this issue. Please refrain from spamming the same question in multiple different threads in future. As for the actual question i'm afraid i can't help you with that, i could never get it to work at all personally. If i remember correctly i think there may of been a issue with it on non "English US" systems, it worked ok for some and not at all for others, and i don't believe that feature has been updated in a while. Sorry i could't help more. Quote
tonythetiger76 Posted July 1, 2017 Author Posted July 1, 2017 Many thanks indeed and i apologise for the duplicate post. I shall keep trying, although i can't see me using it all the time it is still a cool feature and would like to utilise it if possible. Thank you for the swift reply sit, really appreciated Quote
neil9000 Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 It was a while ago now and my memory is hazy on it, but if i recall it was more of a windows issue than a Launchbox one. Windows didn't seem to like the voice recognition if you was using a different language than "English US" i personally use "English UK" and myself and some others had problems with it. Quote
tonythetiger76 Posted July 1, 2017 Author Posted July 1, 2017 Thanks neil i dont know if i can change windows to english us if so ill try that!!!! Quote
neil9000 Posted July 1, 2017 Posted July 1, 2017 Here are a couple of threads on the issue from when the voice recognition was first added to Launchbox. Quote
tonythetiger76 Posted July 1, 2017 Author Posted July 1, 2017 Thanks Neil ill take a look at this. Im not sure if its no longer been supported or if theres a few gremlins in the works. I paid next to nothing for the mic anyway and it works on FB messenger if i cant get the feature to work! Quote
vipermetcalf Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 is your mic a usb one i have a usb mic and it doesnt work Quote
Lordmonkus Posted July 2, 2017 Posted July 2, 2017 Not sure if the USB mic would be a problem because when I briefly tried out the voice recognition feature back when it first got implemented it worked just fine for me with a USB mic. Quote
tonythetiger76 Posted July 2, 2017 Author Posted July 2, 2017 mine is a usb one as i thought it would be better! The mic works with every other aspect of the pc but not with launchbox! I'll keep my eyes open for a non usb one maybe, its not a major thing for me but i would have liked to try the feature out! Thanks for your help guys Quote
