The patch resolves a locking issue that may or may not be timing-source dependant. I've seen the issue occur after call transfers in scenario's where I used a few chan_local's. Do yourself a favour: - If you can, unload the ztdummy and test for a while. However, this may put the issue to sleep - but it won't solve it! - After that, load ztdummy again and apply the two lines in channel.c. Test again. Good chance the issue will be gone.

Would a faster digital to analogue audio converter > "fix" the the problem? Steve Underwood pointed out that most Telco equipment has a max delay of 3 samples. On your Sipura, you will have a initial packetization delay of 160 samples. And that is if there isn't any compression work time. You can bet that no matter what it never takes longer than half the time to receive the samples to compress them as it is likely a symmetrical codec and the other half of the time is decoding the incoming stream too. Next, if the hop from the Sipura to your PBX takes half a millisecond, you still add the equivalent of 4 samples of delay. If you have asterisk doing any work on the link, you add more delay dependent on speed of system and amount of work done. If you route very far, you add more delay. For example, on a point to point T1 link where it only traveled 20 miles or so and was not congested, I still saw another 3-4ms of delay for a ping. So figure 1.5-2 ms for each side of the hop. So figure another 12-16 samples of delay. Of course out my cable modem and up to my office asterisk machine is showing 46.9ms average round trips. So easily I am looking at a full voice packet in transit while the next one is being created. And I'm only 14 hops away all on the AT&T network. So if normal toll quality calls have no more than 3 samples delay, you are looking at a minimum of 164 samples delay on VoIP and possibly more than 330-340 samples. 110 times slower than what the telcos would use. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Why echo occurs
> 1. Is the echo (regardless of it's speed) a side effect of long > distance communications or is it there by design for some technical > purpose? Echo is not there by design (with one small exception noted below). Echo frequently is the result of imperfections in the two-wire to four- wire hybrid. All analog phones are two-wire devices, but most electronic central offices and long distance facilities are essentially four-wire. The Internet, ISDN, SIP and IAX protocols are essentially four-wire. Each point where that two-wire to four-wire conversion takes place, some amount of echo is likely to result. Commercial echo cancelling hardware usually does a good job of removing the echo. So, you might originate a call using a SIP phone, transport that call via ISDN, but if the called end is an analog phone then a hybrid exists at that point and could create some echo. You'll find more detail on the wiki. All phones (analog and digital) feed some of your transmit audio back into the earpiece, and that is called 'sidetone'. That is sort of an intended echo. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Searchable Mailing Lists & NooB Question
Looks like your numbers add the transmit and receive data rates together, which is not a realistic way to discuss bandwidth consumption. An IAX link consumes about 22kb/s (round it to 30kb/s, who cares) in the transmit direction, and another 22kb/s in the receive direction. (There's your 60kb/s.) When comparing my numbers to things like 256,000 bits/sec of DSL bandwidth, you truly are comparing apples to apples. So, if you could orchestrate all IAX calls to be just exactly perfect across the 256,000 bits/sec DSL bandwidth, that DSL circuit could supposedly handle about eight simultanous gsm calls (256,000 divided by 30,000). However, there are lots of other real world issues that would preclude it from actually supporting anything close to eight calls. Four to six might be realistic if nothing else is using the DSL circuit. > > > > > >Very rough numbers: iax-gsm consumes about 22kb/s, > > > > I see about 60kb/s > > > g711 about 80kb/s on > > > > > I see 155kb/s > > Is that normal?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Why echo occurs
Hi Eric, Before VoIP and digital cellular systems, audio samples passed down the communication path with little more delay than the pseed of light. A couple of samples delay might be incurred in switching equipment, but most operators demand a 3 sample maximum hardware delay down the line. Now audio samples are bundled (typically in 20-30ms chunks) for packetising, and to go through low bit rate codecs. Then the bundles get queued in IP routers, creating further latency. VoIP uses massive amounts of complexity in a struggle to offset the effects of these delays, and approach the quality older telephony achieved with simple equipment. In the end the simple equipment will always beat it. That said, in another 10 years there will probably be no traditional PSTN. Strange, huh?

[Asterisk-Users] asterisk as sip client behind nat
Hi, I am pretty new to all of this but was able to set up an asterisk server and have been able to succesfully connect to asterisk with x-lite as sip client. I have also connected asterisk to FWD (using iax2) and to voipjet (also using iax2). Now I am trying to connect asterisk to Stanaphone. It has to register as a SIP client but I am not being succesful at all. My asterisk server sits behind a Linksys WRT54GS router (latest linksys firmware) acting as DHCP and NAT for my home equipment. I have tried forwarding the SIP and RTP ports to the asterisk machine, and I have also tried putting the asterisk machine on the routers DMZ. No luck. I have tried every configuration recommended for stanaphone that I found on the web, including a couple I found on the asterisk wiki and a few I found on the stanaphone forums. I tried, explicitly defining the private and public ips, qualifying, using the same number as assigned in stanaphone for my local extension (a recommendation I found), etc. Then I found a message in a forum about a person with the same problem that claims it got fixed when asterisk was put with a public IP address. So my question is is it at all possible to connect asterisk as a SIP client when it sits behind a NAT?

Yeah, "standard" DSL, what a joke. With all the speeds listed around as being DSL, and the throw away gmail account, we couldn't determine if you where speaking about a deployment in the US or better developed countries where we needed to pay attention to the capitalization of your 'b' or if you where in a less developed area where DSL rollouts actually where of similar speed to dialup. BTW, bandwidth is pretty much always referred to in bits as it is a nice high number and make marketing people very happy. Add to that the fact that the encoding determines if it takes 8 or 10 bits to actually transmit a byte down the line. On my Comcast account back when we did VoIP in my home, we could squeeze 2 concurrent gsm encoded calls down the 128k upstream. At the moment the 3rd concurrent call came up, lag would start setting in and eventually all calls where useless. Of course you also couldn't browse the web very much if more than one call was in progress either. Once you get some time to start looking around you will find there has been several people write up nice little graphs showing what protocols using what codecs use what bandwidth. Then you can do the math on how much you think you want to get accomplished. You will probably find out that you still can't do much on the link outbound and have a call in place at the same time. So you probably want to still turn off the webserver and jabber server, they would be better off coloed anyways and there are a lot of cheap colo places for non critical hosting. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Voice Recognition
Has anyone out there had any success with any type of voice recognition? I would LOVE to see something work within Asterisk. I have tried for days and can't seem to get this right. Is it even possible? I have read everything I can find, but it's like the sphinx integration/documentation was dropped because of lack of interest. I tried this with Sphinx-2 because it contained the programs I read about. Sphinx-4 looks like a total rework in Java and was pretty confusing to me. Please share your experiences!! Thanks!

The $5 handset has just as much echo as a TDM400/Sipura or T100P, you just don't hear it as echo because you're hearing it "at the right time" and all you percieve it as is a sidetone. > I have heard it said it is because of some slowdown of the signal.

I have significant echo problems on my ISDN PRI, as do many others. Those without ISDN PRI echo problems have good echo cancellation hardware sitting on the physical T1. This isn't an asterisk-specific problem. Every single piece of VOIP (or cellular, for that matter) hardware that interfaces to the PSTN has to deal with this in one form or another. Some methods are just better than others. Googling will reveal a LOT of research into this problem. It's by no means trivial. -A. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Surely a $5 analog handset does not have an "echo canceller". Conventional wisdom says that it takes two things to get audible echo: 1. A 2-wire leg to the connection, such as a POTS line. 2. A substantial delay. If you don't have a 2-wire leg, then you won't generally get an echo. If you have a minor echo, but the delay is short, then you don't perceive it as an echo--your voice in the earpiece just sounds a little bit louder then normal. If you have both an echo and a delay, though, then you get a noticable echo, because the sound of your voice echos off the far end of the call and comes back late enough for your ears to hear it. So, you don't hear an echo with a POTS line because it's too fast to hear. You don't hear it with a pure VoIP call because the two ends of the call never get mixed together.

Does anyone has some ideas about this? Are you talking about an ISDN E1 or another form of E1? On isdn dialtone is an optional feature of the specification and there are many implementations of isdn. I think it is mandatory on EuroISDN. Since asterisk normally generates the dialtone itself there should be little nead for the dialtone from the pstn. We use the dialtone from the network ourselves, but asterisk could provide it as well. In band call progress is also a feature of the net on isdn. If the net does not provide it you will have to do so yourself. Just add the proper options to Dial to generate ringback and if the call fails you generate the matching sound (Busy etc).

When you talk on the PSTN with an analog phone, in fact you have echo, but it's coming back so fast, that you think that you just ear yourself while you are talking. No mix in the fact that you are talking on a VoIP phone, that takes the voice, encode it in the proper codec, send it on the network to your * box, * decode it, plays it on the PSTN line, takes what it ears, encode it back in VoIP, send it on the network to your phone that decodes it and play it back to you. Now, this adds a little delay, that'S why you ear yourself talking just after you actually said it. This delays make it so that you ear it in echo. While when you are directly on the PSTN, the echo comes back so fast that you ear it "almost" at the same time that you say it. When you are going only VoIP to VoIP, you don't have echo at all because there's no analog link (that's where the echo is) I hope I explained it well enough. Please correct me if I'm wrong > 1. It is not in the Asterisk box because IP to IP calls do not suffer > this malady Exactly > 2. It is not from the Central Office to my premesis because my $5 > analogue handset works without echo. Also PRI ISDN works without echo. Listen more closely, you'll see that there is echo. With echo cancellation, you ear the echo only for the first seconds of the call.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Round Robin Strategy doesn't seem to work
Let me consolidate a little to address the multiple responses that I've gotten to my question - Thanks to all who've replied so far. Essentially, I am setting up a small company's auto attendant, and they have people who cover each other's job functions as needed. So, there is a 'Sales' guy who should be first in line for each and every sales call. But, if he's unavailable (say on another call) then the sales call should go on to the Dedicated Support guy (and on and on). So, I have another queue, dedi-support, where the Dedicated Support agent should be first in line for every call, with the sales person's agent on down the list. I know that this is a fairly strange scenario, but if I set this all up as queues and agents now (versus contexts in extensions.conf, which I could easily configure to do what I'm looking for), it becomes much easier for this company to maintain their auto attendant as they grow. What I'm looking for is exactly a linear hunt group (so that they can collect queue statistics and change to a different strategy when the have more employees). I've been going off the descriptions of strategies at: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+call+queues I think I now understand the slight difference between roundrobin and rrmemory - rrmemory will place the next call first to the queue member after the one that answered the current call, while roundrobin will place the next call first to the member after the one that got the first crack at the current call. So is there a 'linear' method available? I've tried using penalties, but then I can't get the calls to ring past the first agent (the one with no penalty) if they are logged into the queue but don't answer. For example, when I have: [sales] music = default strategy = roundrobin timeout = 20 retry = 5 reportholdtime = yes announce = queue-sales member => Agent/9021 member => Agent/5901,1 member => Agent/9020,2 member => Agent/1114,3 And agent 9021 doesn't answer within the timeout, it will retry starting with agent 9021 again - we have the potential to get stuck in a loop here. I could use the autologout feature, but then a caller who reaches voicemail (the next step after Queue(sales|t|||120) in my auto attendant context) has effectively logged all agents out of the queue. So I'm a little stuck on how to handle this. Any suggestions or further insight (I'm probably overlooking a simple little solution).

The events you are describing are acting as though you had used "strategy = rrmemory" which is round robin + memory. Either your config file is wrong, or you haven't reload'ed the config file, or there be a bug. Please check the output of "show queues" and then post a bug to mantis if required.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP jitter?
To be totally honest: I wrote the thing. I don't think it's ready to go into HEAD, until the core people can at least agree on the overall structure of the implementation and integration.. There's at least one major fork that one could take with it's architecture (basically, whether it should be applied separately to each VoIP technology, or in common channel handling code), and there are pros and cons to be weighed there. If we choose to continue down with this fork (presenly, it's set up to apply to each technology separately, with a sample integration point for IAX2), we could make things configurable, so you can switch between the old and new jitterbuffers (perhaps with some limitations, like only at start-time, or for new calls, etc), get it applied, and work on perfecting it. It _is_ being used in iaxclient right now, so most of the up-to-date IAX softphones have it, BTW. But, in that case, the integration is much simpler, and I have more control over the project.. -SteveK ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Codec passthrough patch for IAX
Hi there, I had a problem, basically, I have 4 different types of end users (gsm, ilbc, g729, ulaw). However, I only have one user with my DID provider. My provider supports all 4 codecs. The issue is then: When an incoming call comes in, a codec is negotiated (usually ULAW), later on, when the extension is dialed, we'll see we're doing GSM, and thus transcode. Here's an example dialplan: [incoming] exten => 123,1,Dial(IAX2/gsmUser) exten => 456,2,Dial(IAX2/ilbcUser) exten => 789,3,Dial(IAX2/g729User) You're pretty much forced to accept ULAW, and then transcode. Not fun if your provider does it for you (that's what you pay them for, right?). So, with this patch, just add a new config file. codec_passthrough.conf: [iax_my-did-provider] 123=gsm 456=ilbc 789=g729 Now, when an incoming call comes in, the user/extension will be found, and your preferred codec changed. No more transcoding. http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0003553 My main question is: Can this be done without this patch? I've heard it's impossible, and it sure seems that way.

To Bryan, Brian, Daryl, David and others who have reported the same VoicePulse inbound problem I am experiencing: In my extreme efforts to debug this inbound call quality situation, it seems that if I disable the IAX2 registry and instead register a SIP channel against VoicePulse (gw5.voicepulse.com) for my inbound context, the call quality issue is completely fixed.

You have set up a ACD or UCD, which is what most people want, so that calls get distributed more or less equally across a group . Especially in a sales environment, commissioned sales people would raise the roof on what you want. They want equal shots at incoming calls. Can one person be taken out of the list on demand, in case they go to lunch or have to take a leak? What you really want is a circular hunt group ( of stations ) , but in a circular hunt, if all stations are busy, the caller will still hear ring until one ( station ) is free. A terminal hunt will ring up the list until all are busy, then you either need to return busy or perhaps go to a VM box? Sorry I don't have an answer for you.

>Extension 's'? I thought 's' meant Start, not an actual extension. If >there's something I'm not reading or need to read again, don't >hesitate to hit me with a clue stick. Sort of. 's' is used when there is no matching extension in the context. It's the fallback extension if there's no match. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+s+extension You don't list your extensions.conf, but taking a stab at it, you would put in something like: [from-pstn] exten => s,1,Dial(YourInternalExtension,15) 'Dial whatever your internal extension is for 15 seconds exten => s,2,Hangup() 'Hang up the line if nobody answers. You could put in a goto to fire the call to the [from-internal] context in extensions_additional.conf so it can have voicemail logic. I found that the best part of AMP is they have a really really good extensions.conf you can use as a template to make a customized dialplan. Starting from the base AMP extensions.conf and extensions_additional.conf, I have modified my dialplan *way* beyond what AMP can do, but it's AMP's template that got me started. I shudder to think of the hours I would have wasted creating all of the dialplan logic over again from scratch without AMP giving me a leg-up.

Had to change the host= in the sip.conf file to dynamic and added a defaultip= parameter pointing to the phone's IP and it registered immediately without a problem.

[Asterisk-Users] Play Voicemails in reverse order?
Are there any settings in the VoicemailMain handler that would cause it to play the voicemails in reverse order (i.e most recent voicemails first, then second most recent, etc.)? The reason is that we generally use email to get our voicemails, but occasionally it would be nice to get them over the phone instead. But since we don't normally call in for them there's always a great many new messages waiting. We really only care about the last ones in this case. An easy compromise between the manual and email systems would seem to be getting them newest first. Did I miss a setting for this though?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Wireless LANs and Asterisk
Hi Mike, This is interesting - it's something that I've been considering doing for the Asterisk rollout at my company. We don't have enough Ethernet ports and I'm not thrilled about the expense of re-wiring the place. Have you tried D-Link's dual-channel gear for even more bandwidth, or do you feel that bandwidth is not really a problem? How resilient is 802.11g against interference from other sources? Microwave ovens, gigarange phones, etc. Thanks for reporting your success here to the list, just proves I'm not alone with my funny ideas. ..jurgen On Thu, 10 Feb 2005 12:39:00 -0600, Mike Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Has anyone had any experience with wireless LANs and Asterisk? > > We have and here are my impressions. > > We configured an Asterisk in the office as a precaution to see how it > would work for our own retail customers.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP jitter?
So? That's what CVS-HEAD is there for. Adding in experimental patches willy-nilly, especially ones that have the potential to cause huge problems, confounds attempts to isolate bugs and test functionality. Mark does a pretty good job of keeping the HEAD version solid enough to use in production, as most of us running it on a daily basis can attest. huh? HEAD isn't for production. That's part of the game. HEAD is where new stuff goes, then comes the Feature freeze, and then comes the stabilization period. If not, HEAD should be split to not-so-HEAD and HEAD, IMHO. What stops you from applying the patches to your own copy, and then playing with it to your heart's content--like the rest of us? It would work just like it had really been put into CVS-HEAD. I thought it was agreed that the current jitter handling sucked, and a new one is needed. All people running anything apart from IAX, and also those who do, suffers from jitter now. This should go into HEAD. And if it's important to you, you can then *pretend* that it was in the original download. If this is put into HEAD, lots of people test and use it and it stabilizes a lot faster than me sitting in my office hacking it. That should be obvious. roy ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Yeah, there's the rub. Dunno if it's worth it, I'm willing to give it a try with a power reset thingy if that's the only thing I have to deal with. That's why I'm asking for opinions and strategies. I only have 1 shot to make this thing work. If the user is dissapointed, they will have lost all confidence in Asterisk.

Hi, My experience: A handfull of concurrent calls, all works fine on 54mbit. Dont try to go beyond that. Specially when your link is not totally 100%. We tried to do 10 calls on a dedicated Conceptronic AP and all fell down. even with the ulaw codec it was not doable for normal conversations. Even disabling web was not the answer, so we took the good old wires again. And another concern: privacy. As you know, WEP is not that strong.
