It sounds like you are releasing the control key too quickly.

Try holding down the control key until you have said the entire voice command, and the command action is completed.

You can copy the text of your slides from Powerpoint to Text Speaker, then generate MP3 or WAV audio clips.

Next, embed each audio file into the appropriate slide in your PowerPoint presentation. Now, when you playback the presentation, each slide will be read aloud.

Yes, that will work using Auto FTP Manager.

You will require 2 automated profiles. The first will download and keep a backup on your local PC and the second profile will upload from your PC to your mirror site. You can use the action rules to transfer new or changed files. Here is more information on setting action rules:

Use the scheduler to execute each transfer profile separately and with enough time in between schedules so that there is no overlap of transfers.

When My Screen Recorder Pro is hidden during recording, it's icon is removed from the task bar.

The icon is still visible in the icon system tray and you can double click it to restore My Screen Recorder Pro to your screen. Using the shortcut key for stop recording will also restore it to the screen.

You can change the 'hide' function by clicking Tools >> Settings >> General. De-select the check box for 'Hide Application from Task Bar'

My Screen Recorder Pro can capture the screen continuously for a day. The size of the recording at the default settings is 540MB per hour, or 13GB per day.

While there is no function to delete older recordings, you can schedule a simple command line to delete older files. Here is a batch command to delete files on a Windows PC.

Forfiles -pC:\backup -s -m*.* -d-5 -c "cmd /c del /q @path"

This will delete all files in my backup directory older than 5 days. To test it first, use this:

Forfiles -pC:\backup -s -m*.* -d-5 -c "cmd /C Echo 0x22@Path@File0x22"

This will print out each file that the command will be deleting.

You can detach the preview windows from Security Monitor Pro and arrange them on the screen, or on separate monitors, as you like.

Right click on the preview window and select 'Detach Window', then drag the detached camera preview on to the screen you want. Your arrangement should be in the same position each time you start the software.

My Screen Recorder Pro can be controlled using the command line.

The command line functions can stop and start recording as needed from your application. More information about the command line controls are available here:

Auto FTP Manager will transfer any files on your PC, including your MySQL database files.

Transferring databases that are in use is not recommended, I suggest creating a snapshot or backup using the mysqldump utility. You can then transfer the snapshot of your database to your other PC.

Security Monitor Pro can broadcast live video from your cameras. You can view the live video from a remote PC.

To use broadcasting click Actions >> Start Broadcasting. You will receive a link in the log window that you can use to view the broadcast. This link will work from another PC on your local network. To view the broadcast from outside your network, please see the following article:

In Auto FTP Manager you can select just the files you want using the filter function.

For this case, edit your Automated Transfer profile, click 'Configure' next to Transfer Rules, and 'Configure' again next to Filters. Select the File Name filter, and choose 'I would like to Include' files having names 'Ending With'. Then in the text box, enter '_20.jpg,_21.jpg,_30.jpg,_31.jpg,' and so on to _35.jpg. The same can be done for the filename '_34_d.jpg'. Only files ending with these entries will be selected for transfer.

My Screen Recorder Pro can save in AVI, WMV, MP4 and WebM format. To create a DVD, I suggest saving in WMV format and using our free software DVD Author Plus to burn the recording to a video DVD. The video DVD will play in any home DVD player.

Auto FTP Manager can email the transfer log to you, save it on your PC or network, or FTP the log file to a server. You can also choose to email the log on every transfer - or only when an error occurs.

You can find information on the available transfer log settings settings here:

If you contact the manufacturer of the camera, you may be able to get the URL of the video stream. If this is available, you can use the Generic IP Camera profile in WebCam Monitor. More information about using the generic camera profile can be found here.

Since you mentioned that the camera looks similar to a Foscam, you can try our other surveillance software, Security Monitor Pro, it supports the full line of Foscam cameras.

I also suggest trying the Trendnet and Shenzen camera profiles. One of these may work with your camera.

When you start broadcasting Security Monitor Pro will start listening for a connection.

Data is only transferred when you view a broadcast from a remote PC. If there is no client connected to the broadcast stream, there is no data usage.

If you make a purchase of version 4, you will get free updates to all releases numbered 4.xx. When version 5 is released you will be able to upgrade at a low cost.

Dictation Pro works with better with a high quality microphone.

If you have changed microphones, please make sure to select the new microphone. Do this by clicking Speech >> Test Microphone. Once it is selected, I suggest performing the voice training again to get the best recognition rate.

View this link for information about correctly configuring your microphone.

Directly connecting the USB cameras to the PC will allow Security Monitor Pro to see them individually. Viewing through a USB DVR device will show all the cameras in a single image.

Any masked area you use does not appear in your recording. Nothing will be obstructed from view in the recorded video. More information about masking is available here.

To get the maximum quality in the recording, click Camera >> Manage Cameras, select your camera, click the 'Edit Camera' button. Choose 'Actions' and click on the 'Configure' button. In the Video Recording Options move the slider for Video Quality to the highest level.

During recording My Screen Recorder Pro uses space in a temporary folder.

It sounds like you may be low on disk space on your temporary drive. Change the temporary recording folder by clicking Tools >> Settings >> General. Under the Temporary Working Folder heading choose a drive and folder with adequate space.

Auto FTP Manager does not use date parameters in the command line, you can specify them directly in the profile.

Create your filter in your automated transfer profile, enter the modification date for 'Today' or 'Within the past x days' and save the profile. From the command line you will pass the name of the profile you would like to execute, it will use the filter you set.

The WebCam Monitor bit rate of 248kbps is the same for scheduled recording and for manual video recording.

Security Monitor Pro will record at a higher bit rate. Contact tech support for the upgrade pricing from WebCam Monitor to Security Monitor Pro.

Yes, broadcasting will work when you have multiple IP addresses.

Turning on broadcasting in WebCam Monitor will make the video stream available on all IP addresses. You can view it remotely on any of the internal IP addresses 192.168.x.x or your public IP address 71.94.x.x

More information on IP addresses and broadcasting is available here:
