Could someone please comment on the current state of chan_capi, chan_misdn and chan_modem channel drivers in terms of functionality and stability. Specifically, which channel driver would be best for a passive PCI HFC or W6692 ISDN card. The chan_misdn wiki claims that chan_capi distinguishes between junghanns and non-junghans cards, and that chan_misdn is better suited for general misdn compatibility. A second point I'd like some clarification on is the purpose of Junghann's BRIStuff patch. Is this patch only necessary for chan_capi or also for chan_misdn? Does this patch add functionality to asterisk or is it only intended to smooth chan_capi integration into asterisk? Thanks in advance!

I battled with chan_capi during the week, and it was not fun.

I also was thinking about an application for receiving fax over CAPI, but I'm not yet familiar with the current asterisk fax support, so I need to learn more here. Maybe some else can inlight me here... Armin

The Busy-Applicatzion does not work, there seems to be no was to singnal Busy to the caller is no SIP-Phone is ready to answer the call. 2. Dial-Application does not really detect the reason for Failings. As an Example you should have a look at the LCR script available at Telefonsparbuch.de: The script trys to do some Fallback but it does not work with chan_capi. Elmar
Had to jump through several hoops to get it to compile..but I really should have kept notes... -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Armin Schindler Sent: Friday, 13 May 2005 5:56 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] chan_capi, chan_misdn and chan_modem On Fri, 13 May 2005, Paul Hales wrote:> I battled with chan_capi during the week, and it was not fun.Since I'm working on chan_capi, I would like to know what problems exist.
