 Just as an FYI, your 1.4.29.1 patch applies successfully against 1.4.30
 as well.  I've got a patched 1.4.30 system compiled and ready to install
 later tonight during off-hours and will begin having people test
 tomorrow.  People here are going to be quite thrilled about having T.38
 transparent gatewaying again.

Fine. I had not time yet to test the 1.4.29.1 patch.

FYI: For 1.6.2.6 there is also a patch available [1], based on spandsp.

Re: [asterisk-users] press release: Attrafax t.30 and t.38 alternative now released as gpl2 + commercial license

2010-03-12 Thread Noman Siddiqui
Hi Zoa,

Nice work. 

1. It would be nice to have the T30 libraries and include files being 
distributed to the root filesystem or externally defined DESTDIR.
2. Do you have any plans to put the libt30 integration automated via the 
configure script in Asterisk ?  

In addition, just playing around with the T.38 Gateway functionality shows that 
it works fine with ecm disabled and speed 9600. However, I noticed few things:

1. If it is the ingress side (sending gateway) then it doesn't negotiate the 
14400 even though originating fax device supports it, it always starts with 
9600 speed. 
2. ECM on capability seems to have an issue. If ecm is enabled on both the fax 
machines, then it gets disabled internally by the gateway. Changing the code to 
enable it all the time would fail the fax as well.
 
Kind Regards

 Thanks in advanced for any feedback.

CPU is the limiting factor, but on recent hardware you should be able to 
do 120 channels or more simultaneously, without it having to be really 
high end hardware.

We have a test tool in the lab, similar to the show codec translations 
on asterisk, to estimate how many channels you could do, i will have it 
added to the attrafax archive in the coming week so that you can 
estimate things easier.

To already give you some idea in the mean time, when we ran the test a 
long time ago on our very old single core p4 based xeon 3.06 ghz ( 
http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+3.06GHz ) we 
could do about 40 simultaneous channels.

Ratings on recent cpu's such as the core i7 have a rating on the same 
website that is about 15 times higher, so i would presume that 120 
channels would be handled easily.

Greetings,

Zoa

Awesome!

I was an Attrafax customer and was very disappointed when it vanished and
couldn;t get new modules for newer versions Asterisk with our paid license.

If anybody is working on t38 gatewaying code for 1.6, it would be worth a
look at this, as I can attest that Attrafax worked quite well at t38
gatewaying.

I just downloaded a copy of this, by any chances does Zoiper by any chance
have diff files available for a more recent 1.4.x release?  (I know 1.6 is
probably out of the question)

I'm sorry, we do not have anything more recent ourselves. We will make 
some when we have a little bit more time, we are quite busy at the moment.
