I too am using WAV files because of the volume issue: WAV files are shifted two bits louder than any other format. (slight details here: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2005-September/124570.html) That means I'm getting 1MB voicemail files e-mailed to me. It's not that big of a deal, but it's kind of stupid.

Any word on if the shifted-bits nature of the WAV format is present (or even better: selectable) on any of the other formats in 1.2? Or might this be a post-1.2 feature worth considering?

I haven't programmed in C in a good 10 years or so. But this one motivates me. I'm pretty sure I can hack a simple x = x << 2; in there, but making it selectable from within the voicemail configuration file (or wherever else it should go) would be much tougher for me. Might there be a similar selectable feature that I could examine and get an idea of how to do it? Any voicemail experts out there?


Have you tried the new gain (g) option for the voicemail application? From 'show application voicemail':

g(#) - Use the specified amount of gain when recording the voicemail
          message. The units are whole-number decibels (dB).

I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but I hope it works. Incoming voicemail messages from analog ports are extremely quiet.

Cheers,
Kevin
