Hello,
I don't understand the "toggle button" command when adding a new voice command.
I always assumed that the first time the command was executed, the key was pressed and the second time it was released. The way it seems, isn't it?
Can someone explain what the command does?

greetings
Philipp

Thanks for the answer.

For example, I want to toggle the "F" key. For me there are no buttons
Now I always have to create two commands: one to hold down the key and the second to release the key.

Yes, I am currently using the action "hold key", but the key is not released the second time the command is called
That's why I have a second command to release the button.

Yes, but with this action the button is released after the set time. Would like to have pressed this permanently until I just say the voice command again.

For example in GTA. No in Notepad the key is pressed only once. If I execute this command again, the key is pressed a second time, etc.

In game, however, the key is pressed continuously the first time you run it. Nothing happens except the second time.

Do you have another version? On the screenshot does the dialog box look different than mine?

Neither of them. I use "Taste umschalten"

When I use "Taste halten", the key is pressed continuously, but it does not release the key. Therefore "Taste umschalten" after all?
https://www.voicebot.net/Help/#settings-profiles-edit-macroedit-actions - Explanation "Toggle Key" (German: "Taste umschalten" or "Umschalttaste" for German website translation)

I also find it confusing that the German translation between the website and the actual program are so different.

No with the action "Taste halten" the key is not released the second time. For that there is the action "Taste loslassen" ("Release Key")? What does the action "Taste umschalten" ("Toggle Key")?

do you have a different version than me?

So I tried the action "hold key", it won't be released the second time

Can you export your profile so that I can import it into me?

Yes in the notepad it works as desired only in the game (GTA) it causes problems With this action it is so that the key is pressed one after the other (100ms) and is not constantly pressed. You would only have to instead of 100ms Set 0ms (at least 10ms is allowed). Can you change that?

I noticed another bug (besides the ones here): After irregular intervals, Voicebot no longer understands what is said, but only any letters? Also the detection in general gets worse ... If this occurs only restarting Voicebot helps that it starts again ... Why can't that be due to Windows, if a restart of Voicebot helps or? My Voicebot runs continuously with Windows (and listens). Doesn't he take it somehow?

I have now heard it with a macro script. Unfortunately Voicebot always hangs when I hear the "Macroscript" action

See attachement.

The script may not be perfect since I'm a C # beginner.

has done itself, today it works. I don't know what was there ...
Now it only disturbs the Voicebot after some time understands the commands less well and only a restart helps. Why is that?

I hope that Windows will solve this problem. The only strange thing I found was that restarting Voicebot helps and not just Windows.

But he is still listening, but in the log my commands are no longer listed, but strings like "UA", "U", "E" etc. no matter what I say.

yes

as I just noticed, changing the profile is enough

OK thanks

Thank you, I will test it this weekend

Unfortunately does not work Under "Speech Engine Restart Interval" I entered a 10. The entry is highlighted in red, is it therefore not?

Unfortunately, the voice output with the following code no longer works for the macros:
BFS.Speech.TextToSpeech ("Text");

Sorry for the late reply.
The log file is in the attachment

Is that correct?

Yes that is not possible, it still comes after a certain time only "U", "UA" etc. If I change the profile it still works. Will something else be done when changing the profile?

I noticed that the problem mostly occurs when there are loud noises for a short time.

No, when the loud noises occur I try not to issue commands. After the noises are over and I speak, Voicebot no longer understands the commands but random sequences of letters. Unfortunately, that doesn't always happen.
To work around this problem a little, it helps to lower the level of the microphone, but it also makes Voicebot understand me worse

No, I don't have that attitude.
I now noticed that changing the profile no longer helps to improve the recognition again. It only helps to restart Voicebot. What happens when you restart? Doesn't that just restart the speech engine?

Before I used Voicebot, I used the "glovepie" and "freepie" programs to execute voice commands. I didn't have the problems with that. Don't they use the same engine?

Thank you for your efforts What does Voicebot do when you restart it? Isn't it just MS Speech that is restarted as when changing the profile?

Is there anything new about this problem? The Voicebot tray icon is displayed at the bottom of the task bar when Voicebot is running. This icon also lights up when Voicebot hears something. I just noticed that when this problem occurs this icon is lit continuously.
I also ran Windows Speech for a while without Voicebot, where I had no problems dictating so that only letters were recognized.

The icon lights up blue

Saturday, September 12th from 11:45 a.m.

With every simple mouse click he writes an "A" in the log and doesn't understand anything.

Edit:
It seems to me as if Voicebot has problems with an application running in full screen.
I noticed the following scenario with MSFS2020: As I said, I play the game in full screen mode. When after a while Voicebot no longer understood commands, I switched to window mode ingame to see what was being heard. Voicebot has recognized my spoken commands as letters again! So when I still have the game in window mode, I now speak another command and voicebot understands me again! So I switched back to full screen and it went on again for some time. When the problem reappeared, switched back to window mode and back.

So does the full screen cause any problems?

Yes, I have, but there are problems even without it.
What happens in the background when I restart Voicebot? Then it will work again for a while. Couldn't all the processes in Voicebot be restarted after a while, like when Voicebot is restarted?

Until the problem is solved, my idea is the following: Let the program close automatically for 30 minutes and start Voicebot every 30 minutes with the Windows task scheduler. Perhaps via a batch file that closes the process and starts it again. Is that possible?

it fluctuates between 0.3% - 1.5%

175 - 178 Mb.
In addition, I wanted to have Windows Voicebot start automatically via the task scheduler, but it always comes up "the requested action requires elevated rights" even if the task is executed as a system. Even when I run Voicebot state in a batch file and execute this in the task scheduler , it doesn't work either. Voicebot only starts when the batch is executed manually. But that doesn't help me, this has to be done automatically via the task planning. Why is that not possible via task planning?

The account is a normal admin account that Windows 10 created. Do I have to activate the super admin account?

thank you, it works.

ok thanks for trying to solve the original problem As I said, the error occurs when there are indefinable loud noises.

is there something new? I have now tried the speech recognition without Voicebot. In addition to the speech recognition, I opened a text editor to see how it behaves when there are background noises. When the noises come, the speech recognition bar says "Like please" and no letters are written. These letters only appear when I turn on the music loudly. After the noises have subsided, however, my words are recognized again without restarting!
In the Microsoft forum it is also written that background noise is filtered out by the speech recognition. Why not Voicebot?
Does Voicebot change the mode of speech recognition as in "Enter" or "Press a key"? If so, can't you just leave Voicebot in dictation mode?

Is that the right thing?

I have had the program since last year and every version to date has this problem. That's why I think that the older ones also have this problem ...

Can this be due to the German implementation?

The problem only occurs after making your own loud noises.
The problem is most likely to occur when the volume is at 100%.

It seems to me that Voicebot is also very sensitive when the problem occurs, that is, the icon often looks blue even though there is no or only a very soft sound (the level in Windows does not show up either).

Should I send one or more logs again when this problem occurs?

Here I have the complete log where he understands me relatively poorly and letters appear in the log in the meantime.

Time: just before 2:26 pm

Yes, I use a webcam, the sound is extremely quiet at this point and the level of the microphone is only between 50 and 60%. In Voicebot no level is displayed at such a low volume but he still hears something? I have now made a screenshot where there was an ambient noise. Still the same problem, no level visible in Voicebot but the icon is blue! In addition, I created a log again (time see screenshot)

I am not familiar with it, is there a possibility that the speech recognition or Voicebot only reacts to certain frequencies?

Mouse clicks are also heard, although there is no level change in Voicebot or Windows, but the icon turns blue.

Unfortunately I don't have a headset. Sorry
The question is why Voicebot hears something even though no level is displayed. As if Voicebot automatically sets the level to 100% again, but doesn't see anything of it anywhere.

With Steam Voicechat, the level is also increased, only it is visible there

ok i did. I will test it and then get in touch.
I didn't know that Steam rules this if I don't have voice chat. In addition, shouldn't the level in Windows always be at 100%? I only see after an active voice chat that the level has changed to 100%.

even though I have now deactivated the automatic adjustment, Voicebot still listens although no level is displayed!

Voicebot always shows me the level when I speak loud enough, and therefore the level is also shown under the Windows settings.
But there is also the situation shown above, when there is little background noise, in which Voicebot (and Windows) does not show a level, but Voicebot is still listening !?
Actually, Voicebot should only react when the level is displayed (which is also the case when you speak louder!) And not when the level is not displayed.

Is there anything new in this regard? The same problem occurred with a headset.

No, under Windows the level is permanently at 64%. This was always the case with the webcam. The level was only visibly adjusted in Windows when I started a voice chat in Steam, but I turned this off according to the instructions you linked.

Even so, the sensitivity of the microphone in Voicebot increases after a while if there is loud and long background noise. Voicebot even hears more than the maximum setting of 100% that can be set in Windows ?! As if Voicebot not only listens to the microphone, but also to something else.
Yes, the problem occurs even when no programs are running.

Have you tried this: level below 70%, loud and long into the microphone (so that the level fully deflects) and then quiet noises (so that the level does not deflect). Voicebot also hears the quiet noises from me. The best way to test this is to play a quiet video.

edit: Is it not possible to check whether the level is deflected and only then execute Voicebot commands (i.e. everything that is executed in the program)? You could create a new variable under Settings where you can set the value of the level to be checked, whereby 0 is the default value and Voicebot works as it does now.
For example:
if (level >= 5 (variable)) {
# Voicebot program block
}

Um den Fehler wieder zu beheben, habe ich einen weiteren Screenshot gemacht. Hier können Sie sehen, dass der Pegel in Windows und Voicebot nicht abgelenkt ist, aber Voicebot immer noch zuhört! Hat Voicebot eine zweite Einstellung für das Level?

As already described above, my idea was to incorporate a test to determine whether the level was deflecting.

Thank you very much. I mean Voicebot just need to check if the level is shown below or not. If a level is only visible in Voicebot then the code that you are listening to must be run first.

Is there something new?
