Problem loading .wav when using .speak

[Roelie]

Hello!

I am completely new with Vizard, so I am working through the tutorials right now. When I load the .py file for simple lip-synching (created by you), I keep getting the same error: Failed to load wave file: jfk.wav
What is the problem here? Does it not recognize the file, is the file in the wrong folder, or did I forget to start a certain library necessary for these actions?
I hope you can help me out. Thanks!

Are you using version 3.00.2701 or later of Vizard? There was a bug in older versions where the speech action wouldn't be able to find wav files in the resource folder. If you do have the latest version, can you verify that you have the file jfk.wav in the [Vizard30]/resources directory?

Hi,
I have an earlier version than the one you mention: Version 3.00.2167
So what should I do next? Is there a way to solve this problem?
Thanks

The easiest solution is to download the latest version of Vizard. If you can't do that for some reason, then copy jfk.wav into the same directory as your script.
