Speech Recognition Could Not Start Because The Language Configuration Is Not Supported

[Walda Caesar]

SpeechRecognition could not start because the language configuration is not supported.The recognizer language must match the language of the user interface. Please change the recognizer language in the Speech Recognition control panel under Advanced Options.

Speech recognition enables features like voice-to-text, text-to-speech, and even voice access on your computer. However, issues sometimes arise when speech recognition fails to work, which leads to your computer displaying a popup saying, "speech recognition could not start."

One of the most common causes of the "speech recognition could not start" error is a faulty or improperly set up microphone. To fix this, check your microphone for any physical damage and ensure it is selected as the default device.

If your microphone is connected but not visible in the device's settings, see how to fix Windows not detecting a microphone. On the other hand, If your microphone is connected properly, follow our microphone troubleshooting guide for more help.

To fix this problem, we recommend setting up speech recognition again on your device. You can type Windows Speech Recognition in Windows search and open it. This will open the Speech Recognition Set Up screen.

Follow the setup prompts one after the other, and once done, reconnect your microphone. This should quickly fix your speech recognition-related issues. If you cannot open the setup, access it from Control Panel > Ease of Access > Speech Recognition > Set up microphone.

But once you fix the error, there's so much to do with speech recognition features. For instance, you can use it to dictate your emails or control your computer with only your voice, to name a few possibilities.

Windows provides both a device-based speech recognition feature (available through the Windows Speech Recognition Desktop app), and a cloud-based speech recognition service in those markets and regions where Cortana is available. In this article, we will see how to change the language for the speech recognition feature in Windows 10.

Windows Speech Recognition lets you control your PC with your voice alone, without needing a keyboard or mouse. There's a special wizard to help you get started. You need to plug in your microphone, and then configure Windows Speech Recognition. Speech Recognition is a nice addition to the dictation feature of Windows 10.

Speech Recognition is only available for the following languages: English (United States, United Kingdom, Canada, India, and Australia), French, German, Japanese, Mandarin (Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional), and Spanish.

Note: The selected speech language must match the display language of the user interface for your user account in Windows 10. Otherwise, you will get a 'Speech Recognition could not start because the language configuration is not supported' error message. In this situation, you must change either your speech recognition language or your display language.

If this is the first time you are using the selected language for the Speech Recognition, Windows will open the 'Set up Speech Recognition' wizard. You need to configure its basic properties before proceeding.

That's interesting. But the error you get is from Windows/Microsoft Speech Recognition. Not VAICOM. In the VA Discord, I've seen people with similar issues. Can't remember from the top of my head the fix, as it seems that your setup is correct. Except I'm not sure what "TELE" language is. I run US everything. I've set VA to system default. What happens if you do that? If you can't solve it easily, I suggest you got to VA Discord, they will sort you out.

Turns out I had chosen the option "use installed speech platform speech engines" under the VA "system/Advanced" options tab. This is I guess because back when I installed VA for the first time, having a french version of Windows, I had no built-in engine in english.

If that doesn't help you, if you Google "Windows 10 speech recognition won't work", there appear to be a fair few people that have had what look like similar issues and there are quite a few suggested and apparently successful fixes.

Well I just discovered that it does... as I perform the check-in call to the SuperCarrier, as soon as I say "marking moms" I hear the beep sound in the background and the command is sent to DCS. Indeed the SC responds when I am still talking (fuel state)

Language Identification APIs are simplified with the Speech SDK version 1.25 and later. The SpeechServiceConnection_SingleLanguageIdPriority and SpeechServiceConnection_ContinuousLanguageIdPriority properties have been removed. A single property SpeechServiceConnection_LanguageIdMode replaces them. You no longer need to prioritize between low latency and high accuracy. For continuous speech recognition or translation, you only need to select whether to run at-start or continuous Language Identification.

You provide candidate languages with the AutoDetectSourceLanguageConfig object. You expect that at least one of the candidates is in the audio. You can include up to four languages for at-start LID or up to 10 languages for continuous LID. The Speech service returns one of the candidate languages provided even if those languages weren't in the audio. For example, if fr-FR (French) and en-US (English) are provided as candidates, but German is spoken, the service returns either fr-FR or en-US.

You must provide the full locale with dash (-) separator, but language identification only uses one locale per base language. Don't include multiple locales for the same language, for example, en-US and en-GB.

The SpeechServiceConnection_LanguageIdMode property is only required for continuous LID. Without it, the Speech service defaults to at-start LID. The supported values are AtStart for at-start LID or Continuous for continuous LID.

Currently for speech to text recognition with continuous language identification, you must create a SpeechConfig from the wss://region.stt.speech.microsoft.com/speech/universal/v2 endpoint string, as shown in code examples. In a future SDK release you won't need to set it.

This sample shows how to use language detection with a custom endpoint. If the detected language is en-US, the example uses the default model. If the detected language is fr-FR, the example uses the custom model endpoint. For more information, see Deploy a custom speech model.

Speech translation with language identification is only supported with Speech SDKs in C#, C++, JavaScript, and Python.Currently for speech translation with language identification, you must create a SpeechConfig from the wss://region.stt.speech.microsoft.com/speech/universal/v2 endpoint string, as shown in code examples. In a future SDK release you won't need to set it.

Speech containers provide websocket-based query endpoint APIs that are accessed through the Speech SDK and Speech CLI. By default, the Speech SDK and Speech CLI use the public Speech service. To use the container, you need to change the initialization method. Use a container host URL instead of key and region.

Batch transcription only supports language identification for default base models. If both language identification and a custom model are specified in the transcription request, the service falls back to use the base models for the specified candidate languages. This might result in unexpected recognition results.

I've just installed Pilot2ATC and everything is working as I would expect, but the speech recognition could do with a bit more training. I tried the process described in pages 66-67 of the manual, but clicking the "train" button does nothing. I do see that the current version has some more options than the manual, I have tried each one. I've gone through 2.5, 2.5.0.1 and just now 2.5.0.2 with the same effect. I have done the 2 standard windows speech training sessions and in those cases the "Welcome to speech recognition voice training" window popped up and the following traingin windows did their usual thing of working through the phrases.
