It was persistent over 2 calls when I tried it in FSO, but it certainly shouldn't do any harm. I used mickeyterm to enable and disable it mid call to check that call to call variability wasn't playing a part. It may also be worth trying some of the other settings. From the hardware list post: "0083" "Short AEC is active" "0283" "Long AEC is active" "028B" "Long AEC -6 dB is active" "0293" "Long AEC -12 dB is active" "029B" "Long AEC -18 dB is active" "0105" "Noise reduction is active" "0125" "Noise reduction -6 dB is active" "0145" "Noise reduction -12 dB is active" "0165" "Noise reduction -18 dB is active" "0187" "Both AEC and Noise reduction are active" "0001" "AEC and Noise reduction are unactivated" These are bitmasked. From LSB upward the usage appears to be: LSB - always true AEC (short or long) NR -6dB on AEC -12dB on AEC -6dB on NR -12dB on NR AEC (short or long) NR Long AEC So far AFAIK only 0001 (nothing) and 0187 (short AEC and NR) have been tried. What does Long AEC do? Or -XdB for AEC and NR? Do other combinations than those listed work? Does 0387 give us Long AEC and NR? _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
