“Sanako License service has not responded to the license query”
2014/02/26

The dialogue popped up again after my restarting the study server (running on the same computer). After another “new license query”, the system seemed to operate normally (only that it became unresponsive and crashed (after doing heavy screen sharing and screen recording activities for a considerable time)
This is on a Dell Optiplex 760 – Might this be the root cause, and could running the server on a different computer help?.

Experiencing frequent crashes of Sanako student light recorder
2014/02/03

- The new weekly headset check by LRC assistants brought to light that the Sanako student recorder (updated to 7.1, but I did not observe this during a very brief test at start of term):
- Students provide us with large sets of photos like this:
- Need to investigate:
- what is the detail ?
- only on startup? what happens when the sanako is closed and restarted?
- collect the sanako log files before the (frozen) computer gets restarted

- This images is too low resolution, but I am trying to demonstrate that we still experience the same issue as in the fall: two users can be logged in simultaneously. In both cases ones was me. this can cause the language lab software to fail.
- If generally this is supposed to be prevented in our computing environment, what may be the root cause in these instances?
- I am pretty sure mstsc’ing has nothing to do with it. I do not remote into that PC usually.
- Is it possible for another user to log in when previous (administrative?) users got locked?

How to get started with the new text-to-speech support in Sanako 7
2014/01/31

- With the new text-to-speech feature, students can generate their own pronunciation help:
- Using the button:Advanced settings, you can even
- vary the speed of,
- insert bookmarks to use with Sanako player
- or insert thinking pauses for the learner into the audio – excellent ideas, I find
!
- Unfortunately, the LRC currently has voices only for English and Mandarin. Extra voices cost extra
. - Then there is Google translate text-to-speech, but that cannot be saved to file.
