 |

| I have speach recognition on my verbot but when it talks it comes up in the input box so she is in actual fact talking to herself and it goes on and on I cant get a word in edge ways. I am using a headset so I dont really know how she is recieving any input. I have turned down the speakers on the pc she cant be picking any input from the head phone, can she |

| I've never seen this happen. You might want to check your volume control (Start->Programs->Accessories->Entertainment->Volume Control). Look at recording settings (Options->Properties) and make sure that you're only recording from the mic. |

If there was a way to program the bot to mute the mic when ever it talks that would definitely do the trick...  |

You may also want to consider making sure that the mic is set to pick up your voice, not the noise around you.
Control Panel -> Speech
Under the speech recognition tab, at the bottom there is a place to configure your microphone.
Hope this helps! |

| I have the same problem as above. I've tried everything. If only the bot would ignore microphone inputs while it was speaking. Aaaah Wellll..... |

Hi there,
How about using a headphone & mic set, as the telephone operator does?
OR,
Verbot should be programmed to be either speaking or listening, but not both at the same time. When Verbot speaks, the mic is turned off by itself and when it finishes speaking, the mic is turned on again.
But I'm not sure how to achieve that. Matt's job, perhaps.
Good luck. |

| This is a good suggestion, I haven't looked into what .NET provides in that realm but I bet it is possible. I'll spend some time looking into it and see what we can do. |

funny... this is exactly what I suggested in the other thread about speech recognition. I dont use a headset. Honestly, I want my machine to use a mic... Im building a multi touch display system, and I would like to also be able to talk to it freely without a headset, along with the touch interface. The only thing holding me back is that the Verbot chats with itself.
Ive found these snipets of C# online that prtain to mic control... but Ive no idea how to possibly rework them? Maybe someone on here does...
#undef INTERFACE
#define INTERFACE IMicIn
DECLARE_INTERFACE_ (INTERFACE, IUnknown)
{
STDMETHOD (QueryInterface) (THIS_ REFIID, void **) PURE;
STDMETHOD_ (ULONG, AddRef) (THIS) PURE;
STDMETHOD_ (ULONG, Release) (THIS) PURE;
STDMETHOD (SetImpedance) (THIS_ long) PURE;
};
#undef INTERFACE
#define INTERFACE ILineIn
DECLARE_INTERFACE_ (INTERFACE, IUnknown)
{
STDMETHOD (QueryInterface) (THIS_ REFIID, void **) PURE;
STDMETHOD_ (ULONG, AddRef) (THIS) PURE;
STDMETHOD_ (ULONG, Release) (THIS) PURE;
STDMETHOD (Mute) (THIS_ long) PURE;
};
I was thinking the section for mute in the Iline in line... could replace the section for set impedance in the I mic in line. |

Thanks for this pointer, I think this would be a nice feature to add, however after a bit of searching online it is not quite trivial to mute the microphone in C#, I will continue to play around with it and see what I can come up with, but it maybe awhile till we can release something that allows for this feature.
Sorry for the less-than-good news,
-Matt |
