Thanks for the answer! So far I've seen lots of Web references to how Viewer 2 does NOT work with Freeswitch, and no one specifically saying that they've succeeded. Apparently the Vivox module changed somehow. In fact if you log into OpenSim+Freeswitch with Viewer 2 having voice enabled, you swamp the sim with console error messages until you disable voice chat in the viewer:

It'd be nice if someone figured out what went south here; it's a major pain in the (^&(*& if you want both voice and MOAP. I do have Freeswitch working with both 0.6.8 and the current git head (proto-0.7.1, 0.7.1RC1, whatever you want to call it)...but only with Hippo or some other 1.X viewer. I read Melanie's _cri du coeur_ about wanting to get Freeswitch to talk properly to a grid (apparently it works in grid mode only by accident, and if the "magic sim" goes down, that's it for Freeswitch in all regions), but I'm not in a position to help as I'm not a C# programmer, nor a Windows programmer. I'm just glad mono works on a Mac.

Sadly, we have a mix of platforms and can't depend on Mumble. If it were cross-platform it'd be great; I'm on a Mac, meself, and doubt mono would handle the task. Absent positive word on that, I lack courage to try.

I know Freeswitch is currently a pain to set up, but I would be a little surprised if it's not working with Viewer 2 as well. Austin - have you used it with Viewer 2?

Alternatively, you might want to look at Whisper if all your clients are on Windows and you don't mind replacing the SLVoice.exe.

I'm sorry I wasn't clear. Sumimasen, dog demon. I'm behind a firewall that I do not control. If you have control over your own firewall, presumably you can open whatever ports are necessary to get Vivox to work with the servers at Vivox.com. I can't. Our entire solution has to live behind our firewall, voice servers and all.

If I can't get Viewer 2 to work with any flavor of in-world chat with OpenSim, our own best solution will probably be to turn OFF all in-world chat, and run a separate Teamspeak or other voice chat server among the participants. Directional voice and distance fading would probably be detrimental to our purposes anyway.

So far as I understand it, the following things are true:

1) In order to use Media on a Prim (i.e. llSetPrimMediaParams()), it's necessary to use Viewer 2, specifically 2.5.1.

2) In order to use Freeswitch, it's necessary to use anything OTHER than Viewer 2 (Hippo, etc.).

My grid is behind a firewall, so I can't use a vivox.com account.

Is there any way I can have BOTH llSetPrimMediaParams, AND voice, working on a grid behind a firewall at present? Is
there some other voice solution that works with Viewer 2?

I have another one along these lines, I can't seem to use viewer 2.0+ and keep my attachments in place because opensim don't use something called attachment staking, without ruining my clothing attachments, so I have to stick with Hippo. Plus, I was only recently told after trying for way to long to use Freeswitch, only to be told that I must set up freeswitch using IP numbers, because it won't work using an IP DNS server like DYNDNS for an external IP. I can't afford a business account at my ISP, so my IP is dynamic. I am also behind a firewall, but have acces to opening my
ports..

So, now you are telling me with your list, that I can't use one of my last choises to add voice to my grid, because I can't have a firewall at all with Vivox? Do I have any other choises to add voice that I can look up and try to get
running?

It just seems as I go along, I get more disapointed.
I hope there is a little light at the end of this tunnel.
Help is so very appreciated.

InuYasha..
