Good evening,

I encounter a problem with nvda vocalizer 3.1.1 driver with nvda 2020 beta 1. When nvda is loaded, there are a series of beeps. They don’t stop.

Is there a solution to solve the problem.

Furthermore, is not possible to change the credentials or deactivate the license with this driver.

Thanks

Best regards

Cedric

I can report that I'm getting the beginning of most, if not every, chunk of NVDA audio output being cut off with my Unitron Moxi hearing aids as well.

I'll have to play with both the Bluetooth Audio Add-On and, eventually, Silencio.  I would be careful about turning either one off when you know that you're going to be away from the computer for any length of time, as if you're within Bluetooth range of the machine when this is on it will keep the Bluetooth connectivity constantly in use on a hearing aid, and that does decrease your battery life.  My aids are rechargeable, but it would be really irritating were they to run out of power in the middle of the day because I'd been sitting anywhere near to my computer, after having established a Bluetooth connection, and the "silent keep alive" stream were running them down.

Is there anything more specific than just "NVDA Error?" More of an
error message or a code associated with same?

Hello everyone,

I am currently am trying out a new hearing aid called the phonak Marvel. It has Bluetooth and I can connect this to my iPhone, Mac, and Windows 10. however, when i am connected to Windows 10 with NVDA, I have noticed that it have really really bad lag when the screenreader speaks. All first character or word is chopped off. Typing is almost impossible due to it is not spoken. It seems like as soon the TTS stop speaking, it goes into standby. However, my IPhone and mac does not have this problem. I have tried the addon for Bluetooth to stay connected, and I have not noticed a difference.

have anyone else have this issue too?

Thanks guys!

Hi all,

I Have a friend who would like to try NVDA but he is struggling
with the download page.

Is there a link that will just go to a direct download and skip
everything that I can send to him?

Hello there,


I am having a problem where NVDA skips around on universalclass.com.  I am trying to take an exam and the screen reader tends to just jump around the whole page.  I would appreciate any ideas to possibly fix this.

Is there anything more specific than just "NVDA Error?"    More of an error message or a code associated with same?

Hello!

When you activate the "Get add-ons" button it should open the add-ons repository webpage...

Hello:

 

I have installed the most recent version of NVDA.

(not sure how to confirm the version number)

When I go to the Addons manager I cannot seem to install the new addons.

I go  to get Addons but nothing happens when I open the file.

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi David
Thanks for the information. You have answered the question for the issue that was irritating me the most and now I understand the folder requirements for adding book sources to the library, I can amend the folder structure prior to loading SMS.

Cheers

I can answer the second question – yes whilst the Audio Book player is in focus go to menu and then settings and there, there is a toggle to speak track information which you can turn to on or off.

In relation to refreshing the folder path within Speak On, ,I don’t think you can or at least I have not found a way, however I have got used to habitually shutting down speak on rather than alt tabbing away from it before adding content. So this solves this issue for me. It is not a problem for me personally as on my system Speak On loads pretty quickly and the automatic bookmarking feature means that I am always where I was last reading when I return to an app anyway.

Hi Isaac
I saw a message on the list re SpeakOn and have downloaded it and I am extremely impressed with it’s functionality and ease of use.  There are a few minor annoyances which you may or may not be able to do anything about but I thought I would seek your opinion regarding them.

Firstly, I am using Windows 10 and set up the desktop shortcut to run as administrator to avoid the UAC allow this software etc window but unfortunately, 3 of the 4 levels of UAC  security trigger a different UAC message “Do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device?”.  The only way around this is to turn UAC security off altogether, which also obviates the “run as admin” requirement.  Is it possible to get the software certificated in some way to avoid this message?

Secondly, when reading an audio book, is there any way to suppress the announcement of the file names as it moves through the files making up the book?  Similarly when playing Music tracks in an album or playlist?

Thirdly, this is a last minute discovery, so may be covered in the manual and I have missed it.  When trying to add an RNIB flash drive containing 3 Daisy books to the Audio Book library, I had to insert another folder level via windows to the flash drive to allow me to select it and add it’s contents to the Audio Book library.  When I restarted the task and initiated the Add/Library Audio Books Remove folder locations from the Settings sub-menu, The flash drive folder structure was the same as it was before I inserted the additional folder level.  Is there a way to refresh the folder tree view without having  to restart the app?

Cheers
Chris

Hi


More information on SpeakOn based on questions on this thread and others.


SpeakOn home page is at:

http://www.speakon.org.uk/SpeakOn.html


You will find information on the media types its support, links to the
docs and mailing list.


The tutorials produced by David Griffith recently found somewhere else
on this thread are excellent.


Although the latest version was released in 2016 with one minor
exception everything works and there are know known bugs.


SpeakOn supports English only and does not support Braille.

It does not support PDF either.


It is recommended by RNIB in the UK for reading their audio books in
Daisy; SpeakOn supports Daisy 2 used mostly (I think) in Europe. It does
not support Daisy 3 in the US.


Being developed in the UK it supports RNIB newspapers and magazines in
test (epub) and audio.

It supports the epub format generally.

It does not support DRM as used mostly in the US


The NVDA SpeakOn add-on is not necessary to use it but makes sure that
NVDA does not speakOn when SpeakOn has the focus; it does not speak much
anyway and I shall release an updated version of this add-on soon to
this list.


Regards

I know I am biased because I have done a podcast series on this
fantastic app but for me the best accessible ePub Book    reader on
a  PC , either paid, or free , remains by a country mile remains the
free Speak On Media Suite.

I am continually amazed it is never ever mentioned as an accessible
option for reading ePub books.

Just to mention a few of its features.

Customisation of book reading voice including on the fly adjustment
of reading volume and speed  of narration whilst reading a book
through hotkeys. I know of no other book reader which does this.

Able to easily navigate through a book by chapter structure ,
headings, 50 lines, paragraph, sentence line word or character.

Ability to easily set markers in text of ePub books and copy and
paste this text out of Speak On into a Word Processor.

Alternatively control a and control c will copy the chapter as text.

Ability to get single key press on book location and information.

Ability to resume reading from last position read on any book even
if file location has changed.

Bookmark management  - ability to set and delete bookmarks.

It even has a virtual book creation function based on a search term
which is incredibly  useful for study purposes.

Suppose you have a long academic book you need to search through to
study a topic, you can in Speak On define a search term and Speak On
will produce a smaller "virtual eBook” which will consists only of
the chapters which contain the key phrase or terms in your defined
search pattern. Again I know of no other accessible eBook reader
which contains this feature.

Another option is to install Thorium Reader from the Microsoft

provides downloads in EPUB format.

I wanted to share an open source Q Read alternative called Bookworm.
It does not have bookshare support yet, nor does it support links,
and headings, or tables, but still. It's a free option. The main
website is below, where you can also read the manual.

I'm adding this to the accessible apps github page when I have a
moment.
