I'd like to switch from skype to ekiga, however there are some performance issues. With "skype out," for outbound calls, the sound quality is fine, however when I run the echo test with ekiga the voice is quite broken up. (Also, ekiga seems to pin the cpu and I never hear back from the echo test, although I expect those are separate issues from sound quality.)
Echo test is just an echo test, it has not good quality. It just allow to see that ekiga works on your machine.
The quality depends on audio and video codecs used, on your network connection and on ekiga code.
About using CPU a lot, this is a known issue, we need help to investigate it...
Is the better sound quality from skype due to compression, or a proprietary protocol? Not that skype is perfect, but the sound quality is acceptable.
Ekiga too uses compression (i.e. compressed codecs). -- Eugen _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
