Japanese Pronunciation Dictionaries?
Clement Chou
Mostly for the Japanese speakers! I have NVDA JP installed over top of
my original installation so I get the Japanese specific additions that I need. But NVDA seems unable to process the difference between kunyomi and onyomi properly. I remember when it used to be a lot better than it is now. For example, the word 筆問 gets read as fudetoi which I am assming is just the reading of the separate Kanji. But it should be read as ひつもん Any thoughts on this? It doesn't seem to matter what synthesizer I use. Thanks!

Synthesizer issues? And searching for one.
Jesse Farquharson
Hello all.
So... I'm trying to download the Nuance vocalizer synthesizer as listed here: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/wiki/ExtraVoices Just the Nuance one, not the Code Factory Eloquence/vocalizer one. I've tried it on two computers, one on NVDA 2019.2 and one on NVDA 2019.1. Both tell me that the Vocalizer demo has expired even though I've never even used it before. Anyone know what's going on? Also, I have been looking for another synthesizer lately. Ivona. Their website simply redirects me to Amazon Polly, so I was wondering if I can still download it somehow, or if I can download Polly, or if I'm completely out of luck. Thanks.

Re: ALVA 544 Satellite Traveller braille display with NVDA
David Csercsics
I have a USB serial converter here that comes with a driver disk. So this is a thing, but I don't need it as the current computer still has serial ports apparently. If NVDA supported DoubleTalk LT I could still use it hahahaha.

Oh, please post the link! I don't know what driver you're referring to and i don't think RS232 to USB cables come with drivers by standard...

Hi
the cable you mentioned that is serial to USb the 2 I brought come with a driver CD that also supports windows 10 that I am using now. It can be brought off ebay for under 10 bucks new zealand with free shipping. I can post a link later on today to one that I got otherwise in a shop it could be say 40 bucks new zealand then you might have to buy the converter.
the one I got was correct so no converter price on top.

Re: stata with nvda
Marshall handheld Flax
I haven't tried this myself, but it appears that Stata is accessible if you use the "batch mode" described at https://www.stata.com/support/faqs/windows/batch-mode/ (probably option #2). Basically, you would create a ".do" file containing whatever commands you wanted Stata to run. You create this file (e.g. "test1.do") with whatever text editor (even notepad) you please. Then you issue a command at the cmd prompt (or run a simple .bat file), which will cause Stata to create an output logfile (e.g. "test1.log") with the output in plain text. Again, you can use whatever text editor you like to view this output. Then you can change your "test1.do" file and then rerun the command to do it again, etc. Granted, you don't get all of the fancy UI features (e.g. command-completion, etc) -- but this should be entirely serviceable.

http://www.ninite.com v19.2, but the problem persists. I think I'll have to completely uninstall and install from scratch since all of my previous add-ons etc still work as though I had not uninstalled, :) so it is complete removal time and re-install time. I'd like to use some of these SAPI4 engines, rather than the SAPI5 Eloquence since other SAPI5 engines just don't speak quick enough for my needs using human voices. :) Curtis Delzer HS K 6 V F O Rialto, CA curtis@...

Installing Python 3 compatible Eloquence
#addonrelease
Hello everyone.
So I recently downloaded the Python 3 compatible Eloquence addon. However, when I try and install it... nothing seems to happen. I've tried removing Ultra Eloquence, I've tried it with Ultra Eloquence still installed and Eloquence seems to just disappear. Can anyone assist? You can find the addon here URL REDACTED It is also listed here URL REDACTED Thanks.

I don't know exactly when it began but NVDA lately cannot load my SAPI4 engines I use with it such as Eloquence which comes with Kurzweil 1000. Window-eyes loads it and I've not checked JFW yet but will and amend this message.

Re: Identifying capital letters
Gene
Not as far as I know. I suggest such an
option awhile ago but it hasn't been impleented, again, as far as I know.
I don't follow new features closely, though I read announcements about new
versions.

Subject: [nvda] Identifying capital letters I am well aware of the NVDA settings for indicating capital letters with beeps or saying "cap" before capitals and the pitch change to indicate capitls. What I really want to find a way to do is to use my preferred option (beep for capitals) when using read-all. The capital indications only seem to be performed when reading character-by-character. I'm writing up my 6,000-word MA degree dissertation and my supervisor noticed there were a few instances where I'd added some text at the start of an existing sentence and forgotten to turn the old first letter to lower case. The only way I could detect that would be by reading the 34,869 characters one by one and listening for the beep. That is not an option! Is there any way to get the capital indication to be active during read-all? Thanks, Giles

Re: Identifying capital letters
Giles,
Am I safe in presuming you're using MS-Word as your word processor? If so we should open up a topic in the Chat Subgroup as there are some tricks you could possibly use with Word's own find and replace (whether you're replacing or not) function that would let you find embedded capitals mid-word or capitalized words mid-sentence. It wouldn't be able to distinguish when proper names are involved mid-sentence, though. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 The color of truth is grey. ~ André Gide

Re: Identifying capital letters
Giles,
As both a regular expression geek, and someone who's spent a lot of time in the halls of academe over the years, I would really suggest that you hire yourself a proofreader. And I'm not saying this because you're blind, either. An experienced proofreader can pick up on all sorts of stuff, very quickly, without knowing anything much at all about the subject matter as that's not what their focus is. If you are doing a master's thesis it is well worth the money to hire a proofreader if at all possible. The only way I have ever been able to proof my own material is if I set it aside after writing it for some time before revisiting it again, as just "knowing what I meant to put there" often results in my seeing what's not there, but instead what I had intended. That's a luxury, time-wise, that one does not have with theses in general. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 The color of truth is grey. ~ André Gide

Re: Identifying capital letters
given the suggestions about regular expression searches, would it be possible to write a regular expression for NVDA's speech dictionary where a capital letter anywehre gets spoken as, for example, Home as "capital Home," or hOme as "h capitl Ome?"
That would enable me to listen from start to end, something I'm going to need to do before submission, and hear any cap;capitals as I go? Thanks for the suggested regular expressions, Luke :) Giles

Re: ALVA 544 Satellite Traveller braille display with NVDA
J.G
Hello,
as I have tested successfully, you have 2 choyses. the first is relatively expensive but very useful. if you can, borrow or buy also protocol converter from Optelec (support has ended) which introduce satellite displays to system as BC displays. second is that you buy srs232 converter it means, if you have only usb ports on your pc, that you plug in usb side into pc and the other side of converter (serial called also rs232) connect with cable to alva's serial port. In this case you should use brltty. remember: you must know on which com port a display is connected, so you can setup brltty. and if you use brltty, do not use usb connection on windows with this display. hope it helps. regards, Jožef p.s. braille extender addon cannot help.
