A more natural version of the script...
Authored by: kawcat on Jul 18, '03 08:23:37AM

Sounds like a wondrful script but...
exactly where should the script be put on the hard disk?

my speech recognition floater recognizes the word "play" but nothing happens when I continue with a artist's or song's name.


I have a rather large music library - is it just because I have to wait a long time for the script to work?

AppleScript can be slow (and Speech Recognition can also slow down if it has to sort through a large number of words). you'll be searching through a large number of possible matches with an iTunes library.

Another possiblity is that your song titles are hard to pronounce or aren't recognized in the way that you would say it (as opposed to how the computer would expect to "hear" it).

The script should be added to your Speakable Items folder: Library -> Speech -> Speakable Items. You can also get it there by selecting the script in the Finder and saying "make this speakable."

Wait.. im a gimp. In order for the sript to work, do I need to use the SpeechRecognitionServer file? I'm having the same problem as the other guy. All it does is recognize "play" then nothing else. THX!
