ADVANCED INTERFACE FOR EASY INTEGRATION WITH YOUR APPLICATION

1. File-association method: You associate the Start Stop executable with your desired media type (e.g., .WAV, VOX). Double-clicking then launches the Start Stop and optionally auto-plays the clip.
2. Command-line method: From a DOS or Windows Batch or Shell command, you enter the file name and path (local, or networked) of the media clip you want to play, and the Start Stop will load and/or play the clip.
3. VI Interface Method (the most versatile and advanced method): A simple .txt file contains a series of "instructions“ that command the Start Stop.... modes include PLAY, PAUSE, RECORD, STOP, "SAVE AS .WAV", and "SAVE AS TRUESPEECH .WAV". You can specify a local or remotely located media clip that you want to load/play. For example, you can create simple .txt files and embed them as hyperlinks in a web page (intranet, local, or over the internet), and when the user clicks on the link, it will launch and control the Start Stop interface and play the file under foot pedal control.

The user can click on another button and make his own dictation, save it to the hard drive or remote network, etc
