Tools

Himalayan Academy LiveCode Player

Note to Windows users: be sure when you unzip the program to unzip the entire package at once. You should end up with an application folder with a folder named "HA-Livecode-Player-Win-4-5" or "HA-Livecode-Player-Win84-64-4-5" inside of which you fill find "HA Livecode Player.exe" and another folder "Externals." These must stay together in the same location. You can make a short cut to the application executable (HA Livecode Player.exe) if you like. You will need to start this at every transcription session.

This program will run any LiveCode Stack document. You will need this software first. Current version is 4.5. Use the top link on the page when you get there and download the one for your platform: MacIntosh (OS X only) or Windows.

For Mac OSX and Windows those who are working on the GITA talks library by Gurudeva. Current version is 3.2; dated "ATRA 2019-11-27" in the title bar of the main window.

Upgrade instructions:

On some systems it will be automatically unzipped and you will have the file "Audio_Transcriber_3-5.livecode.zip" saved to your desktop or downloads folder. You can (and should) delete the zip files as they are no longer needed. i.e. put Audio_Transcriber_2-9.zip (or whatever the version number is) in your trash.
