[Niels Thøgersen <nto@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Diana,

I don't understand what to do. Should this be done from inside ER 
(Tools/Settings) or directly fron the SAM Configuration (from the menu 
"programmer") or from "Speech" in ControlPanel? 

I can see Orpheus only in ControlPanel, and I can't see how to select/unselect 
items???? - and choosing Mary doesn't affect ER. Should I restart first?

/Niels
(- now with questions..)

Hi

EaseReader is using SAM to find what voice to use for the self voicing feature. 
If you go into the SAM Control Panel and select for example Microsoft Mary SAPI 
4 that will be used by EaseReader. HOWEVER you need to unselect all other 
voices (for example Orpheus) to ensure that EaseReader uses the correct voice 
(ER select the first in alphabetic order).

Please try that to see if it has something to do with Via Voice or EaseReader.

Regards,
/Diana

Hi,

I wonder if you can give me some more details on how I can do this.  I have SAM 
set to use IBM Viavoice, but the self voicing options still do not work.

Regards.
