Hi, I have a problem where some PRI channels get stuck in a "Call" mode. If I do a zap show channel XX, it shows as "PRI Flags: Call". However there is no calls on that channel. Trying to force a hangup does not work: [root@neil1 Dialer]# asterisk -r -x "soft hangup zap/27-1" -- Remote UNIX connection zap/27-1 is not a known channel Any ideas?

I tested vorbis. I sounds good, but when I play something in mono, trebles are much stronger. Perhaps is stereo phase of hi bands removed to improve compression ? I't a good idea (it's not audible in most music), but it should also provide an option to preserve them. Is there docs that explains how dows vorbis compress sound ? oggenc (yearstday's cvs) cre...

...lly, I'm looking in mapping0.c, dumping out the debugging information that's already there. One of the most promising places seemed to be just before floor1_fit, but it seems a bit odd: http://home.samfundet.no/~sesse/vorbis_floor3.png In particular, there's a _lot_ of energy in the treble, where I'd expect there to be almost none. I don't know very much about the internals of Vorbis (nor psychoacoustics in general, I'm afraid), but it seems to be as if the floor is a rough copy of the FFT _plus_ the tone masking stuff, whereas I'd probably want it to be a rough copy...

I've learned that I can make a tag with vorbisgain that tells the player at what volume a track is to be played to achieve a certain level of loudness. Is it possible that there will be a tag that tells the player for instance to add more bass when it plays a track? Ore more treble? With such tags it would be possible to customize the sound of a track according to my wishes - without changing the track itself. Is that possible? Does such a thing exist already? Thanks! Tom.

...der quality 9 means you start to hear "computerish" ess sounds. as for the speex VS windows media encoder issue, compare speex quality 2 with the wma file. they are equally sized and should therefore be of equal quality, but in my ears the wma file is quite a lot better. it may have less treble, but the spx file sounds very synthetic. note: if i have used speexenc incorrectly please let me know. the wav file was 2MB so i didn't want to include that, but simply use lameenc etc to decode the mp3 file into wav if you want to do testing. i hope to hear from you soon. i find this issue...

...equency response problems, AAC had background noise, and WMA lacked impulse response. So I don't think I should be concerned about my hearing... At 128kbps, however, most of the frequency response problems were gone -- except this time, I picked Ogg as the worst, based on an overly exacerbated treble. Others were still noisy and lacked impulse detail, but Ogg/Vorbis was the one I decided first was definitely not close to the original. Listening to it again, I can confirm the difference I heard, although maybe I wouldn't put it in last place this time. The passage I based the Ogg/Vorbis 12...

...oder, but newer versions should be able to achieve that quality with a lower bitrate." I would disagree with this. I think the developers have made some poor choices of late and the latest encoders are worse than earlier ones. Basically they allocate much more of bandwidth to the very high treble than they used to which shortchanges the midrange - even at the highest bitrates they never allocate very much bandwidth to the midrange. Yes the highs are a little crisper, but I don't think it was worth losing definition in the midrange where our hearing is more accute. Unfortunately it...

Hi Guys, I have a problem with IE6. Using any version of prototype and any version of scriptaculous IE loses the ability to select text by dragging the text cursor over it. You can double/treble click text, or use shift and the arrow keys but you cannot use the mouse. This applies to text in both input and fixed elements. Has anyone else got this, or knows how to fix it? Cheers Paul Shannon Web Applications Developer Codeweavers Limited Tel: 0870 443 0888 Fax: 0870 443 0889 Pau...

...Anyway, I've set up a mono AAC+ stream at 32kb/s for. It's strange that Winamp reports it as stereo but the selection in the the shoutcast DSP is mono. Vorbis q -2 http://soulfm.stationplaylist.com/listen.m3u AAC+ 32kb/s http://stream.gottabelieve.org:9000/soulfm.aac.m3u I think the treble is much more natural with AAC. Happy comparisons.

...ch was the original wav when blind-testing. The original had some distortion that perhaps does somehting with my cheapo soundcard) but here's a description of what i've found: When doing some sample encoding with rc2 (rebuilt rpm with latest redhat 7.1 gcc errata) I got some extremely loud treble distortion sounds in the left channel (only). Please listen to the samples at low level to avoid hurting your ears. My guess is that the bug is related to the channel coupling mode used in 128bit and 80bit mode because that's the only modes that exposes this behaviour. A 6 second sample of th...

I would very much like a lowpass option because for FM radio broadcasting I don't want to encode frequencies above 15khz. I'm waiting for this option before switching to ogg from mp3(lame).

...s inferior. All other input plugins do not have their own EQ code so they utilize the PCM EQ. A common complaint until v3.0 and v2.90 was that Ogg Vorbis files sounded flat and lifeless compared to MP3 in Winamp when using the EQ. This was quite obvious on my LPFM station which had a fairly high treble boost and a mixture of MP3 and OGG. When v2.90 was released, Nullsoft switched the MPEG plugin to default to the new PCM EQ. Now all files are equalized the same. Regards, Ross Levis. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/...

I should have provided a link to my low bitrate vorbis stream. It's a mostly easy listening world music format: http://soulfm.stationplaylist.com/listen.m3u Regards, Ross.

...are that is giving me problems is Finale 97, a music notation program. Finale installs Truetype (.ttf) fonts for the special music notation characters. The display on the screen is fine. When I print, the characters are clipped off at the top. For instance, at the beginning of each measure is a treble clef sign, which looks sort of like a cursive letter G. The top loop is allways cut off. It also appears that text is clipped, such as the titles at the top of the page. This happens not only when I use the physical printer, but also if I print it to a PDF file. If I had to guess, I'd say...

Just curious: has anyone seen or heard about a USB-based T1/E1 interface device? I've seen some serious T1/E1 testing equipment that is USB-based, but I was wondering if there was something more generic, like a Zaptel-ish T1/E1 that used USB instead of PCI/PCIx. Thanks! -MC -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi, in a PRI setup, the receiving side is changing the B channel at proceeding. It seems this sometimes breaks some logic (pri_fixup_principle) and then the hangup kind of breaks, release is not answered and a restart cycle is triggered (by remote side). Anyone can help me debug this ? I've seen many posts with simmilar issues but no answer/solution. This is happening on Asterisk 1.2.16 +

...works fairly well, and would probably deserve a 4 on the app database. Except for the fonts, which kind of defies the purpose of a typesetting software! Here are the symptoms and some log activities : * No musical symbols are displayed (except the ones commonly found in default charsets, e.g. treble/bass clefs, sharps...) * Sibelius' standard font for notation is Opus (ttf), which registry is 'microsoft-symbol'. I have installed Opus.ttf along with other Sibelius-related fonts so that X can see them, and they are perfectly displayed by xfd / xlsfonts / xfontsel * I have trie...

Just a (I hope) quick question: Are there any advantages (related to sound quality and file size, not to encode/decode speed or segfaults) of using 1.0 instead of RC3? I as it because I'm a Debian user, and I track the stable branch, which means I'm stuck with the vorbis tools version RC3, unless I want to use unofficial apt sources (don't like it that much), or compile my own
