The SpeechLive upload client automatically recognizes the Philips DPM8000 series devices and Olympus DS-5000 series devices.
For Olympus devices the following subfolders are scanned if they exist:
FolderA
FolderB
FolderC
FolderD
FolderE
The SpeechLive upload client only uploads those file formats which can be played back in the dictation management client:
DS2 unencrypted Philips
DS2 unencrypted Grundig
DS2 unencrypted Olympus
MP3
WAV (PCM, ADPCM) – e.g. from Philips Digital Pocket Memo, SpeechAir and Digital Voice Tracer
After login to the SpeechLive web client the author connects a Philips Digital Pocket Memo, a Philips SpeechAir, or any removable disk drive device (e.g. Olympus DS-5000).The device or the drive is recognized and the upload starts to the author’s SpeechLive folder. The uploaded dictations are automatically deleted from the device or the mapped disk drive after the successful upload.
For the transcriptionist the upload process works similar as for authors. However, before upload starts it must be clear to which author’s folder the dictation should be sent.
Therefore transcriptionists must select an author before upload starts.
If the transcriptionist is always working for the same author she can define a default author in the SpeechLive upload client settings.
Following settings are hardcoded into the upload client:
Set Transcription Pending state for all uploaded dictation files - all uploaded dictations will have the state ‘Transcription pending’.
Automatic renaming of duplicated dictation files - if the dictation file is duplicated in SpeechLive the dictation is automatically renamed with a '_###' suffix before upload.
The SpeechLive upload client includes the following settings which can be opened by double-clicking the SpeechLive upload icon in the notification area of the Windows task bar.
Automatically start upload after connection of a voice recorder
Automatically remove dictations on the recorder after upload
Manual path definition for dictation uploads – used for SpeechAir or 3rd party devices
Use file size limit for uploads – in case an upload of large files must be avoided
The SpeechLive upload client informs the user about the current status and progress of the upload.
The following messages are displayed by default:
Recording device is connected  | As soon as a supported recorder is connected or a mapped drive letter appears in the Windows systemthe Recorder connected message appears. |
Upload in progress  | This dialog is shown while the upload of dictations (and their deletion from the local storage) is in progress. |
Upload finished  | This dialog is shown as soon as the upload is finished and all files are deleted from the device (if the automatic deletion is ON). The dialog informs the user that the upload is finished and that he can disconnect his recorder. Additionally it shows following information:
|
Link to error description  | If the user clicks on the link for more information a text window with some meaningful information about the error causes pops up. |
SPS provides several download tools for the Digital Pocket Memo e.g.:
SpeechExec Dictate
SpeechExec Pro Dictate
SpeechExec Pro Transcribe
DPM transfer manager
DPM Connect for SpeechExec Enterprise
The SpeechLive upload client is the last in line if one of the other download applications or services is running, because they provide more options than the SpeechLive upload client.
If one of these other applications or services is running and a recorder is connected and recognized by the SpeechLive upload client an error message will appear and the upload to SpeechLive is not executed.
