German Speech Recognition
Mon, 31 Mar 2008 07:33:54 -070
Hi,

I had an application working well with the English recognizers and
getting almost 100% accuracy. We needed it to work in the German
language so we had the appropriate phrases translated and set the
langid to 407 but accuracy seems very low even with a native German
speaker. Is there any other setting that need adjusting, and can you
confirm 407 is correct.

Thanks in advance,

Mike,

407 is the correct language code for German.  You should be able to get 
comparable accuracy with the German recognizer.  For testing did you have 
the German spekar use a new profile or reuse yours?  I recommend:

    o Creating a new profile
    o Going through the microphone wizard
    o Going through the tutorial

  If you do, or have done, these things and are still getting noticable 
worse recognition with your application for German, then I suggest reviewing 
your grammar.
