RE: JAWS continuing to talk

I just used the burn example to show one possible use.  As I said, it's
nothing but a storage area, any kind of storage area. Yes, I'm familiar
with Brother Daniel. I play with the Real Speak voices from time to time
as alternates, but rely primarily on Eloquence for speed and accuracy.
Artificial though they are, I can really fly with the stock voices,
whereas I have to pay much closer attention in order to comprehend Real
Speak.

 

The best artificial speech I ever heard was the old hardware-based
DecTalk. I think NOAA, New York Weather radio,  and other automated
services still use something like it, although it may be software based
now.

 well ted the person who told me was very clever he made his own
computers,it was not burning to cd he meant at all,or the buffet  you
mention is that G and Tonic?,I was at the time not able to stop jaws
reading at all,and I think the buffer was perhaps  to do with available
ram? I am really grasping at straws. However an example if moderator
permits, in my ocr I had at that time a voice called daniel 22 hertz,now
daniel did the same trick,wouldnot be paused just went on like a steam
roller,so the vi friend tried to explain it like I have, not letting
something out at one end before adding to it,Oh sounds not very nice but
you know what I mean.Jaws does that ,and you have to let it or force off

        A buffer is merely a storage area. I frankly don't know what
practical use it serves here, but that the short answer.  In the early
days of CD burning, it was vital to insure the flow of information was
never interrupted, unless you wanted a pretty new drink coaster, because
that's all you'd have if a burn was interrupted.  Now there's a
practical use for a buffer.

          just a reminder, as mentioned I do not have anytechnical
knowledge, but a vi friend once tried to explain about the buffer not
emptying being a cause,and my desperate key strokes trying to stop jaws
adding matterinto   the funnel,wwhich could not empty,so if this means
anything to you do try to explain to me, the implication is of course to
let Jaws just go on speaking until it runs out of steam! Of course if it
is determined to read the whole computer contents ,you are in for a long
haul  Dorothy

                Thanks for the heads up, guys.  I've flirted with the
idea of bringing 11 in on this office machine, precisely because of
Outlook's quirky behavior (Regulars may recall I had earlier surmised
swapping out the video card cured my problem; it made it better, but it
didn't cure it.).  Well, your problems sound worse than mine, so I think
I'll leave well enough alone.

                Yes, I've had them with JAWS 11, XP Pro, 32-bit, usually
when using Outlook 2007. Only resolution is to kill JAWS and reload.
Very annoying. Bites me about once a week, on average.

                 

                It does seem to be more prevalent when I'm using other
applications simultaneously, such as Adobe, Excel,IE7.

                        Hi All,

                        With JAWS 11, W7 64 bit, Outlook 2007 good old
JAWS will, upon occasion, continue to talk when reading an email
regardless of attempts to shut it up. 

                        Nothing I do seems to cause JAWS to stop until
it has exhausted the entire email. Next thing which usually happens is
that JAWS goes away and I need to fire it back up again.

                        Anyone else have these problems?

                        Cy, The Anasazi
