Thread: Anyone know what Software is used here ?

Ooops sorry i must have missed that/

I was just wondering now what does the red mic on the top right of RR mean and is there like a button i have to hold before i speak into the mic.

I followed this installation guide and did everything here.


## SETUP ##
Turn off RideRunners built in VR in rr.ini if you have it on.
Make sure that Voice Recognition and your Microphone is set up correctly.
1. Unzip and Drop the all files into "RRPATH"\Plugins\RRVoice"
Note: There are sample .skin and .png files (DFX4)
2. Run the batch file in the folder: "RRPATH"\Plugins\RRVoice\Register.bat
3. Open RRVoiceConfig.exe and Click the "Create" Button and let it find your MP3 and WMA files.
Note: Currently only finds MP3 and WMA Files.
You will note that you have full ini editing capabilities in RRVoiceConfig.exe.
Debug is off by default in both apps, Leave it off for now. Turn it on later if you need to debug.
You can close RRVoiceConfig.exe now if you wish.
Start RideRunner. RRVoice will start and stop with RideRunner.
On startup RRVoice will minimize to system tray, right click on it to pop it up.
RRVoice now Creates a list (RRVoice.txt) of CURRENT Commands in it's Folder by Calling "RRVOICE_LIST"




How ever when it came up to this section i didnt really understand it, maybe this is where i am going wrong if anyone can clarify it for me.

## Testing ##
Take a look at and scroll through the default commands listed in the Commands Listbox in RRVoice.
I have it currently setup with a few default commands as you can see in the Commands Listbox.
Now click on the word "VR OFF" on the RRVoice form
-or-
Use the skin commands as noted below
-or-
Use serialswitch and a momentary button, as noted below, to execute the RRVOICE_ON command
-or-
Use any input device to execute the RRVOICE_ON command.
"VR OFF" will change to "VR ON" on the RRVoice Form.
Say a command and you will see the application and RR recognize your command.
If everything is correct you will see the RideRunner command in bold at the bottom of RRVoice
and RR will execute your command.
If not. Go back and Setup or Train SAPI or Setup your microphone correctly.
I will not provide support for your SAPI VR or Microphone issues.



Sorry for wasting your time and thank you for going out of your way to read this.

there is a right way and a wrong way to do hids.

if it takes less then 10 min to install them, your probably doing it wrong.

the correct method means installing a projector unit designed to use the output of the hid light source.. my 'starter-basic' retro(a couple things to correct, many ideas to add) took me about 6 hours(check the last couple posts of my build log)..

Speaking of bad HID upgrades: I don't know if you watch Wheeler Dealers, Soundman, but they did the bulb/ballast upgrade on a Lexus that made me cringe.
Like anything worth doing, you need to spend the time if you want the proper payoff (coincidentally, this applies to sex as well).

Back to the original topic, though. Is RR the only frontend that has this kind of voice control? I was hoping I could take advantage of Windows 7's built-in voice controls and use them in OpenMobile

Is there anywhere that shows you how to use RRVoice because i installed it correctly following the instructions tho i dont know how to use it or whether it is installed correctly, any help would be much appreciated

I would post the same question in the RRVoice thread, as you will probably get a better response there. Keep in mind that it also depends on what skin you are using. So you may want to post in the thread of the skin you are using before posting in the RRVoice thread.

thanks you for the infomation im using DFX 5.1 i will post it there cheers mate

Question: can you use software like rrvoice to integrate into nav? Say I spell out a street name I'm looking for because I'm already driving. I would use this a lot in my local area where I know the main streets but not a specific address.
