thank for your reply. Jarek Dne 04.08.2020 v 17:03 Gene napsal(a):
I'm not sure what you want to do. Do you use read to end when reading mail or just down arrow through the entire message? You can use the read to end command to both stop unwanted repetition and begin reading the message body.

Realtech audio driver. Specifically, it happens when enhancements are enabled. Try going to control panel > sound, then down arrow till you hear your playback device announced. It might sound similar to: Speakers; Realtek(R) Audio; Press alt p for properties. Control tab till you hear "spatial sound" announced. At this point you should be in a dropdown list which you can use your up & down arrow keys to navigate. Arrow to 'off', then tab to ok & activate. Press ok as many times as required to exit the dialog. Please let us know if this helps.

This is a known problem in my circle across synths.

I suspect this is due to speech refactor. Regardless, it would be helpful if you could get a sentence or something where this occurs, then report an issue if you can get it to happen reliably. This is the hard part. eSpeak is one of the core drivers, so NV Access might consider the issue as worth looking into if reported against that.

Speech crackling/breaking up in latest NVDA
Sharni-Lee Ward
So I just finally decided to brave the Python 3 hurdle, and updated from 2019.2.1 to 2020.2. I've updated the addons I could and wanted to keep, and they're both working fine.
I am, however, having an odd little issue with the synth's speech. I'm using ESpeak NG, and the latest NVDA. I'm on Windows 10. My issue is that occasionally, most often at the ends of sentences and on the word image in the context of that being an object, the speech will break up slightly, for a brief but noticeable fraction of a second. It happens irregularly, and I don't know what to do to fix it. I asked on a Discord server I'm a member of, and someone there told me to switch audio output from Microsoft Sound Mapper to my speakers/headphones. I did this, but it hasn't helped. I've also noticed a slight but noticeable lag when deleting characters, and in single-letter navigation. In the latter, It takes most of a second before NVDA announces the item the cursor has moved to after the letter was pressed. Any help regarding these issues would be sincerely appreciated.

Idea for an Addon
Vaibhav Bhandari
Hi all,
So recently I was thinking like many people out their, whenever they read some book/novel/any other thing, they tend to mark something which they feel is important. Now I was wondering if such an addon for NVDA could be developed through which it would jump from the first bold text to the next. Is their already such an addon or can it be developed? -- Thanks/regards: Vaibhav Bhandari

If you press alt+shift+A to go into the menus, and find accessibility, there is a "enable braille support" checkbox.

I press alt+ctrl+z to enable screen reader mode. However I get no braille output. Is this a known bug, or did I miss a step somewhere.

Re: NVDA in windows terminal on older Win 10 versions

Hi _Brian,
Am 04.08.2020 um 16:46 schrieb Brian Vogel: Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Have you checked with your organization as to when they will be applying whatever Feature Update they intend to apply next? Version 1809 is now very old, and is going out of support later this year or May of next for extended support for Enterprise and Educational editions, and I cannot imagine the IT department won't be updating to something significantly more recent.The IT department is aware of my problems with the older windows versions, but that will not speed up theire update politic. We've been migrated from Windows 7 to Windows 10 in December last year, just to give you an idea how things are working here :-). But OK, I'll check whats possible. Maybe I can get a special system with a newer Windows when things really do not work. Cheers, Schoepp

Re: NVDA in windows terminal on older Win 10 versions
Christian Schoepplein
Sorry, upgrading only my system to the newest Windows version will not work due to security policies, software distribution processes and so on. Also bringing my own device with a self installed environment will be not allowed.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Everything that has no official process or is not officialy allowed by the IT security department is not possible novadays, at least not in companies who think that they had to work and function in ITIL or similar process models. No chance to get out of such process models, at least it is very difficult. Ciao, Schoepp Am 04.08.2020 um 22:00 schrieb Shaun Everiss:
Well why don't you ask your it people to upgrade you to 2004, I am sure others will be getting the next version upgrade.
