Hi, all!!! What will Asterisk do in the following case: For example, we have 4 licenses, and have 4 simultaneous calls, using G729. Will asterisk allow incoming calls from peer, that can talk G729 and ulaw, and will it force it somehow to use ulaw in this case? All phones there in LAN behind Asterisk prefer GSM codec, so it does transcoding. So, what I mean is will Asterisk fall back to use

Hi people Just wondered what your thoughts are on Microsoft's RTAudio codec that they use in their Unified Communications stuff: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=5D79B584-79C9-42A8-90C4-4AB3F03D19C4&displaylang=en They let people license it to use in their own products. I couldn't find any sample clips of RTAudio encoded speech. Apart from being $35000 less

Let me think... - Because it's an open standard - Because it's not from Microsoft - Because you can do whatever you like with it - Because it's not from a convicted monopolist - Because it supports 8 rates in narrowband and 11 in wideband - Because it's not from a company that is known for killing compatibility every few years to force upgrade - Because it's very flexible - Because I wrote it, so it must be good :-) Cheers, Jean-Marc

Hello, I''m trying to upgrade to using the "boxed" xen supported on FC4 after having it working fine for a while on a manual installation on FC3. I upgraded the host operating system with the FC4 cdroms, and it went mostly fine (after I turned off SElinux...) Now, when I try to boot one of the provided xen kernels, namely: vmlinuz-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4xen0 I always get the warning

Hi all, I am building an Asterisk PBX with voicemail and music on hold functions. An ISDN BRI line will also be available and G.729 IP-phones will be used. Are there patents rights applicable to France? Which licence could I use and how many ones are required (only one per phone or also for voicemail and MOH)?

The company does run VoIP but does not use Asterisk (using VoIP to add additional local lines in different area codes). What I'm trying to accomplish is a

[Note to R. Wolff -- thanks for the pointers and the program. As I understand its workings, it would run as root and bind a listen port to a particular program -- with a list being supplied in /etc/portadmin or other file. Basically, a listen wrapper. Hopefully this message will address your cleanup concerns in my previous message. Thanks. Also, you may want to provide a moderator''s

After doing an informal (128k) listening test, I have concluded that I prefer Beta4 over RC2. The 16kHz low-pass on the RC2 encoder makes it sound like FM radio. Both encoders SEEM to have a couple of dB bump at 10kHz.

Hi, Not sure where to address this question ... but I guess this is a good start. I am a freelance Rails developer - and have been developing Rails apps professionally for about a year now. I just want to get an idea of what you other freelancers charge yourselves out at. I have been charging the equivalent of about $28/hour, but get a sense that I could/should charge a whole lot more. I am
