I think that there is somthing wrong in the cloud also. When I check for add on updates and also if I check for updates in the help menu iI get the same error message. Error checking for updates. It seems to be efecting both add on updates and nvda updates as well. Briansackrider

Re: addon updater 22.01
By the way, even trying to get to NVAccess.org is currently giving a 502.
This will almost certainly be resolved later in the day. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 The instinctive need to be the member of a closely-knit group fighting for common ideals may grow so strong that it becomes inessential what these ideals are. ~ Konrad Lorenz (1903-1989)

Re: addon updater 22.01
I think something's wrong "out there in the cloud."
I just tried the same thing with Add-On Updater Version 21.09, and got the same error. After removing that version of the add-on, I cannot download the latest version, which is 22.01. I am getting a "502 Bad Gateway" error when attempting to fetch the latest Add-On Updater from: https://addons.nvda-project.org/files/get.php?file=nvda3208 I'm going to send a quick email message to the folks at NVAccess. I'd just wait a while and try later. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 The instinctive need to be the member of a closely-knit group fighting for common ideals may grow so strong that it becomes inessential what these ideals are. ~ Konrad Lorenz (1903-1989)

Re: Using hyper-v manager with nvda
Russell James
Hi Sean Thanks for your reply I'm baffled that the hyper-v manager is what seems to be completely accessible on one machine and totally inaccessible on another.. I've never really used VMware but I have used virtualbox for many years. Russ

You are probably better off raising an issue on GitHub, if its an NVDA issue, giving more information than you have here will probably help diagnose the problem

Still says capital when typing a capital letter. I know the entry was correct because if you type the word cap in a document and try to read it NVDA says nothing.

Re: NVDA announcing Capital letters

Here is a suggestion for those who don't want to hear cap spoken. Try an NVDA speech dictionary entry for cap and place a space in the pronounced as field. Be sure to select whole word or you won't hear cap wherever it appears. Thus, Captain Kirk would be tain Kurk.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
On a more general note, I don't understand the cause of the problem. I would think that when a capital letter is found, NVDA sends instructions to the synthesizer such as raise voice, or actually sends the word cap to the synthesizer. But turning off these options doesn't eliminate the word cap being spoken for some people and now one person says pitch isn't raised. Yet, I wouldn't think the synthesizer would do something on its own like say cap if no information came from NVDA. Perhaps someone with more technical knowledge might discuss what might be causing the problems. Gene

Hello alexey,
I have also tested your new addon version in the meantime. However, it does not work for me. I don't get any message announced.
With the old version, the image recognition on the internet worked, i.e. it is probably due to the navigator object.
If anyone else has a tip on how the new version works, I would be very grateful!

Yes, this problem sometimes happens, just try a few times after a few minutes, or select a file where the size is smaller

Hello,

I perhaps am the only person that think that there is no need for packaging another addon for sound. Infact we will have a copy of the Volume Adjustment addon... that allow both to modify NVDa volume and app volume, both split sound where you want. So, I prefer to have all in a single addon that make more things.

Hello, I have the beep option checked but I get no sound when I type. I try to use the tone option, but can’t seem to choose the right numbers so I can use that method. I don’t hear any change in tone when caps are typed.
I do not like the word caps spoken as I can’t hear what I am typing. What am I missing? Marilynn

Many thanks for your advice; I found the settings. More generally, what's the rule for where to put add-on settings? sentenceNav is under Preferences, but Tony's enhancement is under Preferences > Settings. Why the difference? Regards, Martin.

Fwiw - This Lenovo laptop has no num pad. I always prefer a laptop with the smaller screen because it weighs less and takes up less space and I cannot see the screen anyway.
