Microsoft Narrator VS NVDA

Ján Kulik
 

Hi everyone,

I just want to know what voice program you use most often. NVDA or Moderator? I'm impressed with your opinion. It is true that when I used the Moderator program and went to browse the Google chrome website, for example Facebook, there is somewhat different than NVDA.

Moderator is a Microsoft interface narrator that you can use as sapi5. Thus, it is a Microsoft speech sapy5 narrator. in other words, it converts text to speech.
Therefore, I wonder if you are using Microsoft Narator or you prefer more NVDA.

I have edited the topic here, and also on the Windows 10 forum, to reflect Narrator and NVDA.

Although Narrator is getting better NVDA still works much better on the things I do.

You do mean Narrator? NVDA 99 percent of the time, then Narrator.

Most of the time I use NVDA but I have used narrator to get me out of jams from time to time.

However, the behavior during site navigation is a bit different than NVDA. I wanted to get through the narrator to navigate the site so reading the links is almost the same as with NVDA but switching between the forms so Narator has a problem. At least that's how I see it.

Narrator is okay. I only use it if I need to do a reinstall of windows, or I
occasionally play around with it my tablet. But otherwise I use NVDA.

You mean narrator presumably. Well I do not have windows 10, but I find more third party software works better with nvda than with narrator on other peoples machines and its snappier and has the ability to be able to run add ons to extend it, but Narrator does not.

I thought the moderator was Brian Bird, or on the other hand if you have a nuclear reactor its that graphite stuff you chuck in to stop it going bang.

Yes pardon my puns earlier, I could not help myself.

I have to say that my screenreader is better than yours like my voice is better than yours or whatever is often a thread that nobody can win as everyone's use case is different. That is not today of course that comparison of clever ways to do things in one screenreader cannot be learned from by the writers of another. If you look Narrators key layout now compared with the original one you can see who they have been copying quite clearly.

I use both.  Sometimes Narrator is better at showing me the context of controls and their locations. I also prefer the keyboard layout.

NVDA object navigation still confuses me.

I use NVDA most often, but use Narrator when I want to use Edge a little, or to get descriptions of photos.
