Describe a program or two that you would like to have. I want to continue making programs but I have no ideas.
Please post some ideas you would like to see. Because I would like to make them for you and others. I will provide the source code upon request when I am finsihed.

Thanks

I've always wanted an artificial intelligence that I could talk to, like Andromeda or Cortana or Helios.

Are you serious or joking?

[Tom9729]

Well I don't expect you or anyone else to be able to program something like that. That point aside, I'm dead serious. Some people dream of being rich, I dream of artificial life.

-------------------------------------------------

FFMPEG is an excellent movie/audio encoder/decoder, but there are no good graphical user interfaces for it. If you could write a simple GUI frontend to that, I would definitely give you props.

The only (Open Source) one I can find is here. It's pretty good, but it supports a limited number of formats.

There is another encoder called MEncoder that can be used as an alternative to FFMPEG.

------------------------------------------------

That's the only realistic thing I can think of right now that really does not have (m)any Open Source implementations.

This is really off topic but...

I am currently working on a program using microsoft speech reco. With it, i can say things like "Open this", "Open that", "What time is it?" and it will respond. It isn't that hard, because speech reco is doing all the work for you. There is a tutorial (in vb.net) that shows you how you can do that. How about making something like that? It can be very useful.

You dont understand what I am saying or you dont understand why.

[jacobjordan]

I don't understand what your problem is.

I copied & pasted the code from the tutorial you suggested.

Works fine except for...

It does not record my words and / or phrases I am speaking.

First of all, make sure your microphone is turned on. If you don't know how to do that, right-click on the taskbar, go to Toolbars->Language Bar, and click on the little mic. Also, i used a different engine for my speech program that has more options and is easier to use, but i will explain more about that in another post.

Nevermind I found the problem.

I needed to configure my speech settings. I had to go through the tutorial.

Thanks for the help.

Just in case your still interested, the class i use for speech recognition is in a .NET dll called System.Speech. You can find it in

Dim Speech As New System.Speech.Recognition.SpeechRecognizer()

That engine offers customizable commands, which is essential for a macro program (and also makes it far, far more accurate).
