Re: [Asterisk-Users] Occasional quiet voicemails

Indeed I do - but I read bug 2023 before posting and thought it was to 
do with the system-wide problem, not with occasional occurrences. I'll 
go back and read it again. Has the problem been solved with the 411P?

 Has anyone else experienced something similar?

Yup. Bet you have an x100p or TDM card. See bug #2023 from a long
time ago.

I don't believe 2023 has anything to do with the 411P; it was basically
an digium analog card issue (eg, TDM04b  x100p).

Based on my tests and findings, the issue is the digium cards record
voicemail messages at a very low audio level (very different from
recording a voicemail from a sip phone). If the person leaving a VM
message called in via the digium card, and that user was located close
to their central office, the VM level is acceptable to poor. But, if
that same person is further from their central office (adding additional
transmission path loss), then that loss plus the digium analog card loss
makes the VM difficult if not impossible to hear.

So, thinking that statement through very carefully, you might have some
users complain and other not, and the problem will not track against
anything that you have control over (eg, where the remote user is calling
from and the transmission loss they incur).

If the digium analog cards passed audio through without any additional
loss, your user's probably would not be complaining. But that extra loss
is what I believe is the issue.

Sounds like there might be a workaround coming for this.

[Asterisk-Users] Occasional quiet voicemails

2005-09-06 Thread Anthony Rodgers

Greetings,

Having solved a system-wide problem on 1.0.7 with low volume on 
voicemail messages by using format=wav, some users are still 
complaining that the occasional voicemail message (no apparent pattern 
in terms of call origination) is still so quiet as to be barely 
audible. Normal conversations and the majority of voicemail messages 
are fine.


Has anyone else experienced something similar?

Regards,
