We are getting a connection error when using the voice recognition setup in DirectRT: Connection error – No Microphone Input. The software cannot communicate with any connected microphones – please make sure you have the microphone connected and enabled. The only time it consistently recognizes the mic is right after re-booting. If you close DirectRT and then re-launch, the microphone will not usually re-connect. This will be a problem for undergraduate RA's out in the field collecting data. Things need to be pretty foolproof without any trouble-shooting involved.
We are running DirectRT v 2008.121.720.10 using Win 7 professional on a Dell Latitude e6410 laptop; Intel core i5, 2.53Ghz, 4.00MB RAM, 64-bit mode. The built-in microphone is described as: CntrlPanel. Sound. Microphone Array: IDT High Definition Audio CODEC. √Default Device. Properties: Advanced; Default Format 2 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz. Exclusive Mode: √ Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device √ Give exclusive mode applicaitons priority.
