[dba-Tech] Voice Recognition Software

Arthur,
Try a google search on exact term:  Miller's Crossing and script
It looks  like you can probably get it for free or for less than VR
software might cost.
Would try to get more info but we're monitored.

I haven't played with this stuff at all. So here is a question. I just
purchased one of my favorite movies of all time on DVD (Miller's
Crossing,
by the Coen Brothers, probably my fave writer/director combination of
all
time; this one starring Gabriel Byrne, Albert Finney and John Tarturro).

Question: assuming I install some sort of voice recognition software,
then
play said DVD while activating said VR software, will it copy all the
dialog
into a file? Or do I have to watch it scene by scene, hitting Pause
frequently while I catch up? Does the VR input have to come from a
microphone or can it come from any integrated device? Could it recognize
song lyrics? (I can imagine that would be VERY tough.) But at the moment
I
don't care about song lyrics; I just want to memorize the entire script
to
Miller's Crossing.

You's fancypants, allayas :-) (A quote from Scene 1, "Ethics", probably
my
fave Scene One of all time, including Touch of Evil's famous
border-crossing
Scene One).

Arthur
