On EditScript-9, is there a setting that allows you to hear a "bong" at the end of the - audio (like DQS has)? Also, sm
Posted: Feb 01, 2010
Is there a keyboard command to get to the end of the audio, or do you have to manually slide the little bar with the mouse?
Thanks!
I use EditScript 9 and I don't hear anything at the end... - lka

You should know where it ends by looking at the dictation thingy, i.e. if report is 2:17 and it says 2:17 at the end you are done. Does that make sense? I never hear a sound when it is done. Those 2 things should be the same (forget what you actually call it), but it shows when you are typing along...
I have called for help for this, but have not resolved this problem. I keep hearing a loud gong gong noise while I am typing. Tech told me it is a system prompt telling me I am doing something that I should not be doing, but I'm not! I checked all the system sounds and alerrts and find nothing... Any ideas! TIA!! ...
Has anyone out there set up a server for your business? If so, how complicated was it, and is iit worth the investment? I have about 10 MTs (small business). I think this would save a lot of time and frustration if we had a server... Anyone who can share their opinions on this would be greatly appreciated. ...
I'm struggling with getting my "new" computer up and running. Of course, it isn't a new computer, because we have to have Windows XP. Grrrr.
I can't figure out how to get my windows to open to full screen - or maybe 2/3 size like my old, now deceased, computer. I get a small centered square no matter what program I open, and have to maximize every time I open a window.
I've done it before, but have absolutely no recollection of how. ...
Just read an article in the AARP Bulletin that 1 in 7 Medicare patients died or were harmed by their hospital care and the number of patients who die each year from preventable hospital errors is equal to 4 full jumbo jets crashing EACH WEEK. They can't figure out what to do about it.
Maybe auditing the employees like crazy and holding them to a 99% accuracy standard and cutting their pay 50% if they don't meet it like MMMMMModal/Q? Sure seems to work for me :) ...
I used to work there for approx. a year or so, before it really went down the toilet. I believe that sheer GREED set it and that's when it went downhill. Although I no longer work there, I have kept contact with some pretty reliable people. There are "100s" who are on the books to work; however, they work when they want, IF they want - there is absolutely no consistency to schedule or hours or days, nothing. Thus, the need to have that many people; the HOPE that someone will be working ...
20 years ago, like a lot of us, I worked at home typing dictations from cassettes on a typewriter! Recently I was asked by a health care provider if I can do her dictation notes on her own program, using her own templates, send them to her printer from my computer, like is done with the national company I work for. How do I do set this up in this day and age? Can I download her program onto a thumb drive and put in my own computer? How do I get her templates into my ...
I did transcription for a physician about 15 years ago (drove 20 miles to his office, picked up tapes and returned finished product 2-3 times a week). He is unhappy with his current transcription service and wants me to do it again. He uses a digital recorder now and I am not sure how to set things up so I can do it online or through email. I would greatly appreciate any direction or advice in this area. ...
Hi
I am using Express Scribe 5.24 and need to have the pedals set for rewind timing.. I mean the center pedal that when you release it will self rewind say 3 to 5 seconds
Cant find that, where might that be? ...
I've always kept mine on 0.8 and thought it was perfect but turned it up yesterday to 1.0 and didn't really notice too much difference. I like it right around there because I am able to hear every nuance of what is dictated and rarely miss any of the small details. I read on a different thread that someone else kept theirs much faster so it got me curious what the "average" is. Is mine ridiculously slow or are some of you just ridiculously fast? :) ...
This patient has dupuytren disease and the doctor dictates the following:
His strength in the right is 50 and 50 by s/l j-mar 1 setting.
Any ideas??? ...
My account has capped and bolded headings. For some reason, VR NEVER bolds. I guess it isn't capable of doing so!
Is there any way to set up a macro to bold like maybe all headings or bold words in caps or anything like that? Even bold from the : to the beginning of the line maybe? I can't seem to figure out how to set this up. There used to be a webpage for help with macros and shortcuts but I don't recall what it was. Does anyone know what I am tal ...
I need to set up jump points in a document in Word 2003 but do not know how. In other words, I want to replace a jump point or marker like @@ with text in an Instant Text entry. Anyone know how to do this? ...
Could someone please tell me where to locate the foot pedal setting on my computer when I want to change what type of pedal I am using? I haven't done it in so long I can't remember where it is located. Have been looking all day for it!!!! Help, please. Thank you. ...
I am trying to do a transcription test and the company I used to work for changed my computer setup and I can no longer use Express Scribe to play voice files using my foot pedal. Does anyone know where the settings are to make it play voice files once they are on Express Scribe and where on my computer do I check to see what the foot pedal setting is? I have been trying to fix this so I can get through the transcription test and hopefully MAYBE ACTUALLY GET A JOB?&nbs ...
Does anyone know if there is any difference in EditScript MT 9 and EditScript MT 9.12? If there is, how can we update this?
It seems that my new place of employments line counting is not the same as my old place of employment. New employer has EditScript 9, while my old work had EditScript 9.12, and my line count was much more at my previous employer. Now it seems I can put out tons of work and see not much for lines... Very frustrating.
When questioning my employer now, they say t ...
Hi All....
I was just hired by an MT company that uses EditScript. This is a brand new experience for me as my previous MT job did not use this platform. I've been studying the user manual and specs, but am nervous about starting tonight. I'll be starting out with 10 reports. I know it will be "SLOW GOING" especially tonight. I want to do a good job, but worry about being too slow at first. Any words of advice or encouragement out there??? I could use some ...
I am going to be going to ES VR. I have been working on Dictaphone Extext straight typing and a little VR. I did not find VR in Dictaphone to be good. I have done ES before, and I believe it is better.
Considering the chump change we make to do VR, do you think you are paid enough to proof your work after you have edited the report, or do you do a once over and go on to the next one? I mean, really, with what we make, we really have to do a once over to make anythi ...
Offered a job with this company on EditScript platform. I still have job with major company. Should I make the switch. Pay is the same but run out of work a lot where I am now. ...
After 40 years on the job and getting tired of typing, when out of a job this last time (there have been so many times of late because of ...well most of you already know how goes it with our profession), I decided to just go for what seems to be taking over transcription anyway.
Thanks to this board and all the talk about the different platforms, I took a job with a company that uses EditScript, and I am thrilled. In those 40 years, I have had to do a lot of proofreading as a super ...
I have a VEC USB port. I cannot seem to get it to work in EditScript. I also have Express Scribe. Is there a way to get the foot pedal to work. Checked Belkin instructions, and there is no foot pedal listed in my ports. BTW, don't have Belkin so wont work anyway.
Any help would be appreciated. ...
I posted this on the company board but this might be a better place...I work at FocusInfomatics...QC..just started not that long ago. Many years of experience with editing, QA, MT, etc. I'm new to VR. I would love to hear what to expect for production as right now...it's not so good. I understand variables, etc. My work load is very low right now but that is supposedly going to change soon. With QCing everything to sound, can someone tell me what they ...
I recently upgraded to EditscriptMT 8 from verson 6 and now find I cannot look back at old records as I used to do and check for familiar phrases, medication lists or other information. Does anyone know how to look back at previously transcribed/edited patient records in EditscriptMT verson 8? Thank you in advance. ...
