similar to: IAX2 how to disable VAD ?

Hi Marc, Thanks for your quick response. So if VAD is enabled then VBR will be enable although it's a special VBR. How about take out the VAD code from the VBR and remove the code else?

As I understand it, there are two separate ways to get VAD information from Speex: 1) Using the encoder. 2) Using speex_preprocess(). I present the following observations from an application developer's perspective. They may be wrong, in which case I would appreciate corrections. - The two VAD systems are implemented differently. - speex_preprocess()'s VAD provides more accurate

Hello, I'm try to run speex on some ARM processor. I'd like to cut away some speex features including VBR, ABR and preprocessor while still supporting VAD/DTX. But I've found some puzzles in the source code regarding VAD as below, 1) there are VAD related codes in the source file preprocess.c. Will VAD still work If I don't use the source file preprocess.c? 2)The speex manual

Jesus, Unfortunately, FFT and magic algorithms don't work (yet?). You might want to try this if you're not satisfied with Speex VAD: http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2008-August/006860.html It won't perform any miracles, but I think it works pretty well and is easy to tweak.

My data is speech sampled as pcm mono 32khz. I want to use vad for regulating the agc gain mechanism. So... if voice is not detected I just reduce the agc value in order to not amplify the 'silence' otherwise we just increase the agc value if it is below the minimum.

Hi, I had the same experience. The VAD done in the encoder does not seem to work very well at all. However, the VAD done by speex_preprocess() works much better. You will also get better results if you enable the denoiser, I think. peex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess, SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_DENOISE, &denoise_enabled); speex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess, SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_VAD,

Hello all: I am interested in using Speex for an application that streams audio from a (noisy) source, so I am interested in VAD and DTX operation. However, after browsing the archives of this list, I note that a number of people have not been satisfied with the operation of the VAD algorithm in Speex. This leads me to a few questions: - Is there a reference somewhere (other than the source

you can use the marker bit on the RTP. - farhan On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 12:04 PM, Fabio Pietrosanti (naif) <lists at infosecurity.ch> wrote: > Hi all, > > supposing to have speex working at 3.95, when VAD/CNG is employed, which > is the size of those "silence" samples respect to voice samples? > > I am wondering if it could be possible to lower even the

Thank you, but I am thinking about trying to move VAD implementation from 1.1.12 to 1.2. I'm not sure about how difficult it could be (maybe impossible due to Jean Marc has disappear).

Hello, I am trying to use the preprocessor VAD to encode at lower bitrate during silence periods. I am able to run the preprocessor and get the VAD flag for each frame, and I am quite happy with it's performance. I would like to know how to pass the preprocessor VAD flag to speex encoder -- basically, i want to force the encoder to generate comfort noise when preprocessor detects silence.

Hi Jean-Marc, We're exposing the opus_internal_flags data structure so that we can access the value assigned to prevSignalType. Here's a snippet of our code: error = opus_encoder_get_internal_flags(vad->opus, &internalflags); if (error != OPUS_OK) { return OPUSVAD_OPUS_ERROR; } cur_signal_type = internalflags.prevSignalType; if

Hi List, i've set up a cisco 7912 for my asterisk box. I've had problems with VAD and CNG. After googling a bit, i've found an article about asterisk not supporting these two protocols, therefore it's better to turn them off. Since then i did not found answer to my two questions, maybe somebody here could help me: a) am i even able to turn off vad/cng on cisco 7912? SIP

Hello. I have generated a dll out of speex-1.1.4 using VC++6. I did not want all the ogg/wave header in the encoded stream. So I have replaced to codes of speexenc/dec with that of sampleenc/dec from the manual. Thus now the dll accepts the raw input, encodes it and returns the encoded data. I also pass on nbBytes for each frame encoded to the decoder and no other information. I intialise the

Sorry, VAD is still float, but if you're using the built-in one, float emulation should work (it's not very compute-intensive).

Hi there, I'm having a problem turning VAD off in Speex. I'm using version 1.2rc1, and I'm passing --disable-vbr at configure-time, which `configure --help` says should also disable VAD. I'm testing with a 1 kHz tone from a test set at either 0 or -10 dBm. Before I disabled VBR at configure-time, both tones would become very distorted after a couple of seconds, but become clear

For what it's worth, I've had significantly better luck with the WebRtc VAD. It's pretty good. http://code.google.com/p/webrtc/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc%2Fcommon_audio%2Fvad%2Fmain%2Fsource In general, the WebRTC voice engine seems to be more sophisticated and mature than the Speex preprocessor (as opposed to the Speex codec, which is pretty good). Ken Smith Cell:

This works well. Thanks for the link. However I am curious about something. Speex requires a VAD for the VBR mode and the comfort noise preservation. Is the Speex portion for this different than the VAD result returned from the preprocessor call?

Hello, in my project im using speex 1.2rc1 and the preprocessor VAD seems to only separate complete silence from not complete silence frames. The Speex Manual, you can read "The voice activity detector (VAD) provided by the preprocessor is more advanced than the one directly provided in the codec." but if you go to the source code in preprocess.c line 995 "/* FIXME: This VAD
