Hello folks. I understand this is the development email address, but I don't have any others to use, maybe you can help. I'm an engineer at XM Satellite Radio in Washington, DC. I'm scouting for other low bandwidth algorithms for some voice content. Speex looks pretty interesting. My goal is to find a promising codec for 2Kbps. I see the download links on the pages offer

Thanks Jim, that's understood. When I say AMBE isn't working well, I only mean from the audience acceptance point of view. Technically it is fine. It is exactly doing the job we had expected. It's the long standing wish that everyone wants... More for less. We are just seeking a bit of magic that just may not be there. Ideally finding a codec that can perform

Thanks for the reply. We are currently using AMBE (4Kbps) for our Traffic/Weather Channels. If you have ever had a chance to hear the service, you will know that AMBE does not do us well. I understand that 2Kbps is low quality, but any poorer than AMBE? If can get a decent quality for other low bandwidth talk channels, such as about 10-16Kbps and have it sound rather clean, then I would be
