User settings, Display, View toggles, setup button next to AutoBriefs.

Laura, thank you so very much for your contribution!  That info about the Auto Brief was exactly what I was looking for.  I think I'll set the reminders to 1 also....sounds like a good idea.  And I hope the info on division interval helps others out there.

 

Amanda, I'm having empathy pains for your situation.

 

And, Christy, welcome to the group!  I hope someone here can help you!

I have had the same problem of my .wav file not uploading till the end of the job, which totally defeats the purpose of using division intervals so that a scopist can be working on it.  Can get the .ecl to dump in intervals without fail.  I've tried using the underscore, because that's what someone said worked for them, and have tried it without underscore.  Someone that gets this to work should tell us what their settings are, like a screenshot so we can compare. I don't understand why support can get this to work for one person and not the next.  Even if you're not sending to a scopist but just testing to see if the audio and job file will go over in the increments should work, no matter what the scopist's version is or how they're accessing Dropbox.

Thank you so much, Judy and Laura.  Starting on it again this morning.  Will keep posted for any more posts re and keep group posted of my findings.  This surely is not the pain I am experiencing it to be--something must be amiss.

Thanks for the welcome, Wynne. 

I've been using version 5 since it started in development almost two years ago.  I don't use Auto Magic, but I do have the info bar set to display auto-briefs so that the entire left side of my screen has auto-briefs in RT.  I keep my stats window down at the bottom of the auto-briefs list.  I set my minimum reminder to 1 so that if I have a shorter way of writing ANYTHING, I'll get a reminder of it.

It's helpful that the auto-briefs are different colors now, and you can customize the display colors for Requested, Reminder, and Normal briefs.  You can also change the font they display in and the number of each type that show in the list.

I use a macro to toggle the left pane on/off.  When I'm editing connected to my monitor at home, I actually prefer the left pane on even though there's nothing in it because my transcript text is then centered on the screen.  When I'm elsewhere editing on my notebook, I shut the left pane off because the screen isn't all that large.  When on jobs, it's on so I can see all my auto-briefs.

I don't have much to add to the division interval/DropBox discussion because I haven't tried setting that up and using it, though I would like to.  I have seen mentioned that the reporter and scopist must be on the exact same version of Eclipse, so probably not one on .14 and one on .16.  If what you've installed from the disc is .14, then you should probably update to .16, which has a few bug fixes, including these, which were in added in .15:

- Division interval feature should not attempt to auto-rename divisions
    
Division names must continue to match the original file name, even if it's an automatically generated one. The auto-rename feature will now be ignored if the user has a division interval set.      
     
     - Division interval feature could sometimes attempt to divide twice in the same interval
    
The feature will now only divide once per interval no matter the length or timing issues.

Amanda,

I've apparently successfully dumped my files into my scopist's DropBox folder (she's happy).  I'll contact you here in case anybody else is interested (although feel free to e-mail me at judyrunes@yahoo.com).

First of all, I did 90-minute intervals (I realize your 5-minutes were for test purps).

No, I had no underscores in my file name (my file names are 20111029 Smith v Jones Jim Jones:  date with the year first/month/day, then case name, them wit name) with no punctuation/dashes/underscores.

Since I'm new to v5 and was unsure whether it would dump the audio along with the ecl file, I also utilized my Total Recorder files (or at least I thought I did).  (There's always the possibility that I did not set that "dump" correctly (more than one step).)  And even if I did pull that one off correctly, there would not be wav files and not able to be merged with Eclipse (which makes me think I flubbed).

Renee, my scopist, was able to very easily read it into the prior file.  Just copied the new wav file into Eclipse and everything sync'd.

Maybe Renee will come in and tell you what she had to do on her end to achieve success.  Forewarning:  Renee is a newly retired reporter and is now scoping full-time, so is probably more Eclipse-savvy than most scopists (that was NOT a dig to scopists BTW).

Is anyone out there on Version 5 using division interval and Dropbox (reporter is on XP and the scopist on 7, if that matters)?  A big concern is that the scopist and I have come across (get ready for this one) is that when she merged all the five-minute segments together, in order of them coming to Dropbox, the order they came is out of order, even though the name is in order for the time--meaning when I go into the Eclipse file on my system, the word "Pete" comes AFTER "under those circumstances," for example; but when I go to her merged file in Dropbox, the "Pete" is now BEFORE the "under those circumstances."  Two files are jumbled (at least two).  And, no, she did not inadvertently merge the files out of order--she merged them in order of the time in the filename.

Are y'all using the underscore for the file name?  When I do that, the .wav file will not send to Dropbox, period.

For anyone using Dropbox (or a like service) on Version 5 and division intervals and all is well with sending the audio and the ecls, please contact me.  I would love to get your settings.  amandaleighcsr@gmail.com.

There is a feature that misspelled words are underline with a red line like you see in Word Perfect......not sure if that's why an untrans would be underlined.

Comment by Kelli Combs (admin) on October 29, 2011 at 16:03

Why are the untranslated words underlined in V5?

Spent all day yesterday with support--spent all afternoon.  Just spent 1.5 hours with a call between support, me, scopist.  No closer.
