["Mesar Hameed" <forza_mesar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,


I have installed the viavoice out loud rtk and sdk but when i run the sample
programs that comes with it, i get a segmentation error, from the email
below, it looks like some of you got around this problem, could any one
please advise me on how to do this?

  Best regards
