The unzipping/MP3 decoding must be done in realtime, on demand, and on the server. I agree with Tony's argument for MP3 when sent via e-mail or downloaded from the user portal. But even if sipX did MP3 encoding for this purpose, I'd suggest keeping the original linear files around for when users are retrieving messages via the telephone to avoid the need to decode in realtime. Is anyone out there running a 'large' sipX/SCS system willing to publish their voicemail usage specs? I'd love to see the average number of messages per mailbox, and the average length of each message, and the total disk space used by voicemail. Every system I've ever looked at was using a tiny fraction of the disk space for voicemail. Average message length was under 30 seconds. Logs were taking up WAY more space then voicemail ever did. And for the record, I think sipX should support MP3, but only when someone finds a way around the licensing issues. --Woof! _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
