On my PC, when I click on 'ReVoice Studio' in the DVD ROM menu, I just see a page describing ReVoice Studio. How do I start ReVoice Studio?

Try this:

  • Close the Interactual Player or any other DVD player you are using on your PC.
  • Click your Windows Start button, click Run, then in the Open window type: D:\common\win\bin\ReVoice.exe (where D: is the letter of your computer's DVD ROM drive), then click OK.

Why is the video corrupted with green, red, or black and white?

If you have a Hercules Prophet 4500 video card, or similar:

Right click your desktop and select 'properties'.
From the screen that appears, click 'settings' then 'advanced'.
The Hercules driver offers a box for 'performance', which when clicked on, brings up a slider bar for (video) hardware acceleration.
Reduce this to the second setting and restart the computer.
ReVoice Studio should work fine.

If you have an ATI Radeon card:

Go to http://support.ati.com/ and download and install the latest video driver for your ATI Radeon card and operating system. Let us know if this helps.

Others:

If you have another video card, make sure you have the latest drivers for your card (please check this with the video card manufacturer).
It is also worth checking whether your video card has a hardware acceleration performance slider in it's control panel similar to that described for the Hercules Prophet, above.
If so, try reducing this to see if the video corruption in ReVoice Studio disappears.
Please let us know how you get on.

How do I backup my recordings in ReVoice Studio?

Your voice recordings are stored in the folder called "ReVoice" in your "My Documents" folder. If you make a copy of this folder, you will be able to copy it back into your "My Documents" folder to restore any recordings that you made before you made the copy.

You may need to set your DVD drive to DMA mode. DMA mode allows the video to play without using the processor in your computer. See the Windows Help guide, accessed through the Windows Start Menu, and your DVD drive documentation.
