One of my bosses uses ES, always has, and gets along fine with it. And, hey, it's free. I on the other hand have a very difficult time hearing a couple of docs on that. I've had GP for years, had to pay for it of course, but the tech support is great, and I've never had problems other than one, which tech corrected with a phone call, in the past 9 years.
I'd try express scribe if you can get the free version, but if it doesn't work for ya, then you may have to shell out some money for the better (in my opinion) Gear Player.

DSS Player Versus Express Scribe For Dragon SR Mar 19, 2012As much as I hate to do it, clients are requesting to use SR. I have Dragon and Express Scribe.

I've tried converting the files to wav but the distortion in sound quality is not good for SR. Any suggestions on which is the better way to go.

Gear Player Wont Convert Files? May 24, 2013Hey guys, I'm so frustrated because for some reason my Gear Player will not play my files. This is the second time this has happened. I don't know what I did the first time to make it work, it just sort of happened. When I get work, the files will automatically go into Gear Player, but then when I try to load to file it says "Converting File" and then it just never loads. It doesn't make any sense because it happens to files that I've already played too so I know they should ...
Transcription Buddy Vs. Express Scribe Jul 27, 2013Does anyone out there have pointers on how to get Transcription Buddy to work when we take online tests with companies?

TB lets you try it for free for 30 days. However, I tested today for a company and tried to use TB, without luck. Ended up having to install ES to take the tests.  ...

Hi. I've been using Express Scribe for years now and have never run into a situation where it couldn't play the files that I was working with.
