I would love to try this but if there is no one helping answer questions that I don't think I'll jump in.
Anyone know of any other voice control software?

Hi!
Don't know if the project is still alive but I have a couple things to mention.
I think the "save" function of both grammar and config is a bit buggy.
In config the xml is not always saved and in grammar most of the times, many of the commands are deleted and I have to keep a backup of a previous edit. Now I do it manually from notepad.
On other thing I want, is to call the "hotkey name" and powervoice to respond something back. For example, if I set the hotkey name to "monica" and also add this name in grammar, speech recognition doesn't work.
And finally, powervoice cannot speak greek. Although I have a greek text-to-speech engine installed, powervoice pops a message about invalid characters pointing the greek ones.
Any update would be appreciated.
Hope this isnt dead.
Its a great concept and the app nearly has all the features you could want!
RIP Powervoice...
Here's some autoit3 code that I use to address powervoice not starting up in listening mode:
start.au3
the 5 second delay on start is to help avoid some directsound errors I was getting.. probably from starting SAPI before it was ready.Code:sleep(5000)
run("PowerVoice.exe")
winwait("PowerVoice")
sleep(1000)
ControlClick ("PowerVoice","","TreeView to SAPI")
winsetstate("PowerVoice","",@SW_SHOWMINIMIZED)
close.au3
to address the problem with PV crapping out on suspend/hibernate-resume I added these lines to RR's ExecTBL.ini so it closes PV on suspend and reopens it on resume.Code:winclose("PowerVoice")
winwaitclose("PowerVoice")
Code:"ONSUSPEND","RUNQ;c:\progra~1\powervoice_v1\close.exe"
"ONRESUME","RUNQ;c:\progra~1\powervoice_v1\start.exe"
