Usage

Seldom used.

If your application repeatedly requests unavailable voice criteria, there's a chance of adversely affecting performance such that your customers notice delays. Use this parameter to avoid to avoid too much scanning. The timer interval works as follows:

  1. On the first occasion when an application requests voice criteria that doesn't exist in cache, Vocalizer scans the installation directories to detect any newly-installed voices that matches the criteria. If nothing is detected, Vocalizer continues with default behaviors.
  2. On the second occasion, Vocalizer consults the rescan interval and only initiates another scan if the timer is expired.
