rrk - - 1 comments @ Windows Vista/7 Phoneme Extractor 1.2

Ok, so Silwerfish posted youtube videos on how to get phoneme extraction working in vista/win 7. They can be found by going to youtube and searching for "SF's Hammer Tutorials - Face Poser 2: Setup" (or episode 3 search for: "SF's Hammer Tutorials - Face Poser 3: Lip Sync"). Episode 3 talks about how to fix the extraction issue that a bunch of you are having. I too had it until I did what he said:

To quote his episode 3:

Can't extract?
1. Go to your start menu (this is windows start menu) and open up the "Control Panel".
2. Make sure you have "View by" set to "Category" (not large/small icons).
3. Click on: "Ease of access", then "Speech recognition" and then "Text to Speech" (to the left).
4. A window should pop up, go to the "Speech Recognition" tab.
5. Set "Language" to "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - UK)", if you can't, then just set it to something else and pray that it works.
6. Click Ok and try again (no program restart should be necessary).

Note - on win 7, I found this in advanced speech settings, but it is also there in text to speech. So, change to uk from us and it worked for me.

Good luck.
