can you make one for dictation bridge as well?

Hi all,

 

I created an emergency hotfix version of Remote add-on 2.1 that makes it compatible with wxPython 4 (NVDA next snapshots at the moment). Until this hotfix is part of official Remote add-on package, please consider this as a third-party hotfix.

Cheers,

Jsoeph

What add-ons are you using?   This sounds like it could very well be an issue with an add-on.  I would definitely try restarting Firefox in its safe mode (which is unrelated to Windows Safe Mode) and see if the issue persists.  Take a look at:  https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode

Hi:

I did figure out how to contact Magix and got the following response, actually a pretty good response.

Does anybody know about NVDA and this QT Framework?  Is this something that is being addressed in NVDA at all?

It sounds to me like these guys could be interested in helping.

Greetings Chris,

Thank you for contacting us.  I have discussed it with our developers, and I
have also researched the NVDA and Cobra screen readers, and it is our opinion
that the problem is caused by the new interface for SFAS 12.  The new version
uses QT framework, and from what I have found, there are many, many complaints
from seeing impaired users about difficulties with screen readers interacting
with QT framework.  I would recommend writing the makers of the screen readers
and ask them if they know of an incompatibility issue with QT framework.  Of
course, if there is, we would be happy to refund your purchase. If you would
like, I could send you a trial version of Sound Forge Audio Studio 10...I know
it's a bit older, but it uses a different framework, and should work much
better with screen reading software.  If you want to try that, let me know,
and I'll be happy to set it up.

??e apologize to you for the inconvenience of that.  I personally see it as a
big problem, and I will talk with our developers about what we can do in the
future to change this--it should be our goal as a company to make sure all of
our programs can function properly when used with a screen reading interface.
??e thank you for your time, and we will await your response.  In the meantime,
have a great day!

Best regards,
Craig Dickerson

I use the NVDA screen reader for the blind and Cobra screen reader for the

Soundforge 12.5 will not allow me to highlight portions of an audio file and
skips

I have pulled out of the nvda descussion group, and I don't need skype to

There should be update settings under advanced but I have not found this

As for the future, eventually everyone will have to use the universal app,
maybe but who knows.

I don't need skype, and to be honest I may end up abandoning it and
calling the expensive but accessible way over the phone or using email.

Previded we can get the skype classic program, ms doesn't ask us to

So at least for the moment they are leaving us alone who knows how
long
that is but still.

I have not as yet tried this.

The nvda skype group didn't have much traffic and I was thinking of
pulling out anyway.

Skype isnot a real issue for me as I hardly use it.

Skype web via miranda works for text, now if I can use it to call
skype
then fine I guess.

There is zello but I have never figured it out as such.

On the other side those of us on android and ios devices will still
be
able to use skype,.

This seems to effect desktops, that is windows, mac and linux only.

For group chats there is teamtalk, and tthub.org <http://tthub.org/>
are
offering competitive rates right now.

I am interested though in some kind of voip or sip app that is easy
to
use, accessible and can use as a protocol skype calls, messages,
groups
and file shares which are the only things I ever use.

If that can be done and if I can login with my skype account then
fine.

Right now skype classic still works.

Eventually that may die but who knows.

The skype interface with miranda ng is a bit different, I will have
to
get used to it but right now well.

I don't use skype enough to justify upgrading to anything new, I
barely
use that much of skype's power as it is.

Hi all of you.

Pulling out of nvda skype group now because of 1, skypes uncertain
future and 2. the fact I hardly contribute to it, I will shift all
my
conversational contributions to this list from now on if I havn't
allready.

I will still use skype classic for family, but due to things as
they
stand I may have to remove skype from my contact and other info, it
will be email for internationals only, skype if they need, but I
will
no longer advertise.

Microsoft has lost another user, skype classic interface is easy to
understand, the new one I just don't care for.

Its a pitty its got to end this way but I may as well cut my losses
right now rather than having to bother with things going bang.

I will have to either search for another solution or start paying
high
charges for international calls because skype new versions are
inaccessible.

Way to go ms.

Can't skype classic just be pulled from the update loop and still
be
kept active?
