  1. need amr to be supported in Speech to Text services

    I saw that currently only wav audio format is supported.
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech/getstarted/getstartedrest?tabs=Powershell

    However, my customer is using Cordova App and the default format in Android Cordova is AMR audio.
    We hope Azure Speech to Text can accept AMR as well.

    This cloud services accept various format of audio including AMR, so I think technically it is feasible for Azure.

      • Connector for PowerApps

        Please provide a connector which can be used in PowerApps.

        I have tried to use the service from the demo in an azure function, but this fails currently by an unknown error :(

        • improve the recognition of numbers

          The recognition of words like "tenthousend" is "10 1.000" but should be "10000" this is bad if you try to allow an Input of numbers bigger then 1000

          • captialization

            This service is not doing a good job of capitalizing the first word in sentences. I say "I ate lunch period it was good" and I get

            I ate lunch period it was good. This later becomes

            I ate lunch. it was good

            For some reason the recognition of a period in punctuation doesn't produce the capitalization of the next sentence.

            • confidence number value per word or per speech fragment

              I am doing a POC with speech recognition for long speeches.
              https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/azure/cognitive-services/speech/concepts#recognition-modes

              The recognition mode "conversation" with format "detailed" delivers message responses of type "SpeechPhrase" including confidence value.

              The recognition mode "dictation" with format "detailed" delivers message responses of type "SpeechFragment" and "SpeechPhrase" (including confidence value). But the fragments do not contain any information about confidence value.
              With the C# service library and the recognition mode "dictation" you'll get partial results with a confidence value (enum). But this is not our desired solution, because the confidence value seems to belong to the whole phrase (Confidence: Indicates the level of confidence…
