Newbi to VC first post
« on: February 23, 2014, 10:41:39 PM »
I am studying VC with great interest. There is a lot to digest here but I do have a general question to ask....

I have an extensive HA system in my home. I use a Vera as my HA controller.

For using VC, I would like to know if it is possible to have both Chinese and English languages in a single install of VC. My wife is Chinese and I am American, so it would be good to have VC respond and understand both languages.

I would set up VC on my laptop (Win 7) to be running in my server room.

Thanks

Hi bucko. VC can only use one speech recognition language at a time.

You could create side by side installations on the same PC with two different configurations.  Kalle has done this with English and German. Generally you will need a way to let the programs know which one you are talking to to avoid false positives.  This can be done with a voice command, or using other methods.

Using VC in Chinese is possible but is also somewhat uncharted territory so I hope you will give it a try and let us know how it goes.  :)
