As I understand it, if you are using MeetMe, or if there is any codec translation, or having to listen to DTMF (it should only have to decode the audio to listen to INBAND DTMF, I don't know if it does), or other sorts of things that requires Asterisk to listen to or manage audio the audio will be decoded into SLN format.

I believe for MeetMe all the audio channels are decoded into the SLN format then that audio in SLN format is handed to the Zaptel driver to use some sort of voodoo magic to mix the audio.

Asterisk does not touch the actual audio except for after it has been converted to SLN format.

Asterisk isn't an RTP mixer in the sense you are thinking of. Asterisk mixes/exchanges audio frames in a protocol independent fashion. The mixed frame then gets sent into the RTP core where it gets turned into an RTP packet that is sent out.

Does Asterisk really follow 3550 for CSRC. I am confused.

Hi

Does asterisk uses CSRC. I was trying to create a situation with 4 simultaneous users talking and executed ethereal to capture logs, studies RTP but never found CSRC count to be more than 0.

Can somebody explain me.
