You may also have to contact the computer manufacturer if you find that the steps to update the sound card driver do not work. For information about your hardware manufacturer, visit the following Web site:. This contact information may change without notice.

Windows computers come with a built-in utility called Device Manager which allows you to uninstall, install, and update device drivers.

Most audio and sound driver problems occur due to corrupt device driver files. You can fix such errors by uninstalling and reinstalling the concerned device driver. To fix your Drivers problems you will need to know the particular model of the Audio device you are having problems with.

Once you have the details you can search the Audio website for your drivers and, if available, download and install these drivers. Then given the correlation, the driver can map the keyword DSP timestamps to Windows performance counter timestamps.

The interface design attempts to keep the object implementation stateless. In other words, the implementation should require no state to be stored between method calls.

The set of supported keyword IDs returned by the GetCapabilities routine would depend on this data. Dynamic user dependent model - IStream provides a random access storage model. The content and structure of the data within this storage is defined by the OEM. The OS may call the interface methods with an empty IStream, particularly if the user has never trained a keyword. The OS creates a separate IStream storage for each user. In other words, a given IStream stores model data for one and only one user.

However, it shall never store user data anywhere outside the IStream. One possible OEM DLL design would internally switch between accessing the IStream and the static user independent data depending on the parameters of the current method.

An alternate design might check the IStream at the start of each method call and add the static user independent data to the IStream if not already present, allowing the rest of the method to access only the IStream for all model data. As described previously, the training UI flow results in full phonetically rich sentences being available in the audio stream.

Each sentence is individually passed to IKeywordDetectorOemAdapter::VerifyUserKeyword to verify it contains the expected keyword and has acceptable quality. Audio is processed in a unique way for voice activation training. The following table summarizes the differences between voice activation training and the regular voice recognition usage. As mentioned previously, the Windows speech platform is used to power all of the speech experiences in Windows 10 such as Cortana and dictation.

Miniport interfaces are defined to be implemented by WaveRT miniport drivers. These interfaces provide methods to either simplify the audio driver, improve OS audio pipeline performance and reliability, or support new scenarios.

A new PnP device interface property is defined allowing the driver to provide a static expressions of its buffer size constraints to the OS. A driver operates under various constraints when moving audio data between the OS, the driver, and the hardware. This property should remain valid and stable while the KS filter interface is enabled. The OS can read this value at any time without having to open a handle to the driver and call on the driver.

The driver sets this property before calling PcRegisterSubdevice or otherwise enabling its KS filter interface for its streaming pins. A driver implements this interface for better coordination of audio dataflow from the driver to OS. If this interface is available on a capture stream, the OS uses methods on this interface to access data in the WaveRT buffer. A WaveRT miniport optionally implements this interface to be advised of write progress from the OS and to return precise stream position.

Several of the driver routines return Windows performance counter timestamps reflecting the time at which samples are captured or presented by the device.

In devices that have complex DSP pipelines and signal processing, calculating an accurate timestamp may be challenging and should be done thoughtfully. The timestamps should not simply reflect the time at which samples were transferred to or from the OS to the DSP. This section describes the OS and driver interaction for burst reads. Two burst example read scenarios are discussed. The timestamps identify the sampling instant of the captured samples. The driver also returns the performance counter value that corresponds to the sampling instant of the first sample in the packet.

Note that this performance counter value might be relatively old, depending on how much capture data has been buffered within the hardware or driver outside of the WaveRT buffer. If there is more unread buffered data available the driver either: i. Immediately transfers that data into the available space of WaveRT buffer i. Or, ii.
