Hello, I've just caught a strange crash in speex_echo_state_init routine. It happened only on one WinXP machine, while on others using XP, Vista and 7 everything is fine. Crash occures in mdf.c line 434: st->spec_average = DIV32_16(SHL32(EXTEND32(st->frame_size), 15), st->sampling_rate); Got any ideas or should I provide more information of the OS? Thanks a lot!

Hi Anton Thanks for the info... What if I use this function do I still need to sync the playback and capture? Assuming that the captured voice (*rec) already contains the echo which I need to cancel out... -------------------------------- void speex_echo_capture (SpeexEchoState *st, const spx_int16_t *rec, spx_int16_t *out) Parameters: st Echo canceller state rec signal

If more than one speaker receives the *same* signal, it doesn't matter the number of speakers. It only gets tricky when the speakers are playing slightly different signals (e.g. from a stereo song).

Hello. I have the following situation. AEC is used in network chat software over DirectSound API. Echo and reference signals are almost aligned (delay is no more than 30ms). When echo is emulated in notebook (built-in speakers + mic) everything goes fine and echo is cancelled. But when configuration includes stand-alone speakers and mic no echo is removed. Audio is in 22050 hz at 16 bit

Hi So in your case if you don't want to use speex_echo_cancellation than you should do next way: Save the playback frames (clean echo) within separate playback thread with speex_echo_playback func. Then use speex_echo_capture - it will remove the clean echo frame (saved with speex_echo_playback func) from const spx_int16_t *rec buffer (saved with speex_echo_capture) and you will get

As for me - speex_echo_cancellation is a better choise. Try using it in capture thread instead of those speex_echo_capture and speex_echo_playback functions. And please, describe your problem in details. Cause the fact that you "didn get echo cancellation" doesn't mean you are doing smth wrong. Regards, Anton A.

Sorry, I've forgot to mention init params: Frame_size is 441 samples and filter_length is 4096. ..don't think it makes any sense though.. Regards, Anton A.

Hi Is it possible to use only the speex echo cancellation module w/o using the speex codec? Here's the scenario: 1. I have my voice recorded in PCM audio file format 2. I want to cleanup the recorded voice by removing any echo included in the audio file/buffer 3. can I just use the ff APIs? - SpeexEchoState* speex_echo_state_init() - int speex_echo_ctl() - void speex_echo_capture()

Well, I'm not a professional in AEC theory, but what I've mentioned is: speex_echo_state_init(20, 320*10) - frame size should correspond to 20ms. At your sampling rate (16000hz) is should be 16K*0.02 = 320. The same I can notice about echo tail. 100ms: 16000*0.3 = 4800, not 3200 as you has. But that's not crucial I think. Just wanna you get the point. "Internally,

One thing I can think of is if you are using two or more speakers. If the speakers are not at the exact same distance from the mic, you will get more than one echo. AEC can not handle that. Try disconnecting all but one speaker and see if it makes any difference. cheers Greger 2010/3/15 Anton A. Shpakovsky <saa at tomsksoft.com> > Hello. > > I have the following situation. AEC

Ok. Thanks J-M for clearing that up. What if you mix up the polarity on one speaker (180 degree phase change), would that matter? cheers Greger 2010/3/15 Jean-Marc Valin <Jean-Marc.Valin at usherbrooke.ca> > If more than one speaker receives the *same* signal, it doesn't matter the > number of speakers.

It's still all linear. You can even apply a different equalizer to each speaker and it'll still be linear. Jean-Marc > cheers > Greger > > 2010/3/15 Jean-Marc Valin

Yes. I guessed that too, however I am not sure why it keeps repeating every time the user stops / pauses and starts speaking again in a single session. I am using a laptop with standalone speakers. For echo cancellation to work one has to make sure that the ref and echo buffers are synchronized. I guess this is the most common problem. -Elston -----Original Message----- From: Anton A.

I usually use the cross-correlation between the speaker signal and the mic signal. It works pretty well. The problem is the you need enough data in order to get a good S/N. I compute the cross-correlation between 1.5 second data of each signals. In this way the application detection of any anomalies is quite slow. I am looking for something faster, but I fear it will be something very application

1) Everytime a participant speaks there is a echo for a short duration (maybe a word or two) but as the participant continues to speak without a any break the echo is 95% cancelled (i.e there is a feeble echo still present if observed very carefully). 2) The moment the participant stops / pauses speaking and start talking again, scenario 1 is repeated as if the echo state has been re-initialized

Hello, Hyee Wang. I'm currently working on project using AEC library. My colleague Paul Novodon already contacted you at http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2009-November/007550.html but you didn't answered. I'm starting to investigate this problem in a couple of days, and I really want to hear from you if you faced the described problem earlier and know the solution.

Hello guys, I want to make echo tail parameter in my app changeable during run-time. So my question is:f Should I use speex_echo_state_reset function for this? Just call speex_echo_state_init function with new values after that? Or perform a full de-initialization and initialize echo cancellation with new tail value? I'm also using preprocessor - does the same apply to it?
