-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've have installed a new Asterisk 1.4.15 system after having previously used a 1.2 CVS head (from 10 Sep 2005). Both systems are pentiums though the newer one is actually a slower processor. On the new system, playback of gsm files is noticeably poorer (voice quality is flakely) on any connected phone (sip or isdn, internal or external). Prompts recorded in sln are very clear quality as are voicemail recorded in wav. Call quality is also good. "core show translation" show "gsm=>other format" times are similar to old system. what could be the reason for the poor performance of gsm? How could I investigate it? Only other things to note are that I am using mISDN and ztdummy (as before) though last time I had also installed libpri - but never used it so did not install this time. thanks John new system Translation times between formats (in milliseconds) for one second of data Source Format (Rows) Destination Format (Columns) g723 gsm ulaw alaw g726aal2 adpcm slin lpc10 g729 speex ilbc g726 g722 g723 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - gsm - - 2 2 2 2 1 5 - - 19 2 - ulaw - 4 - 1 2 2 1 5 - - 19 2 - alaw - 4 1 - 2 2 1 5 - - 19 2 - g726aal2 - 4 2 2 - 2 1 5 - - 19 1 - adpcm - 4 2 2 2 - 1 5 - - 19 2 - slin - 3 1 1 1 1 - 4 - - 18 1 - lpc10 - 5 3 3 3 3 2 - - - 20 3 - g729 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - speex - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ilbc - 6 4 4 4 4 3 7 - - - - 4 - g726 - 4 2 2 1 2 1 5 - - 19 - - g722 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - old system g723 gsm ulaw alaw g726 adpcm slin lpc10 g729 speex ilbc g723 - - - - - - - - - - - gsm - - 2 2 2 2 1 5 - - 17 ulaw - 4 - 1 2 2 1 5 - - 17 alaw - 4 1 - 2 2 1 5 - - 17 g726 - 4 2 2 - 2 1 5 - - 17 adpcm - 4 2 2 2 - 1 5 - - 17 slin - 3 1 1 1 1 - 4 - - 16 lpc10 - 5 3 3 3 3 2 - - - 18 g729 - - - - - - - - - - - speex - - - - - - - - - - - ilbc - 5 3 3 3 3 2 6 - - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4-svn0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHYiWNd4I3jTtt9EIRAmEgAKCAUcvaqvqNF415bw7RSTBi+hq3QQCfZpap eT65bxwPEZob+j31UkwMuFc=2JNt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

There are two workarounds for this problem: either use gcc 4.1 or enable the DONT_OPTIMIZE compiler option in 'make menuselect'. -- Tilghman
