similar to: Asterisk and Fax part 2

Thanks. I know that line quality is a factor, and I know I could get a 50$ fax with a PSTN line (that is what I have now). But I have my reasons to want to setup a fax over IP, and I want to keep going. Where do I find info on this debug mode? Is there a detaild log in Asterisk that show exactly what happens when the fax is trying to come in? Also, could this console output help? - Executing

Hello, Is there or can anyone provide a comprehensive guide (designed for Linux/Asterisk novices) to installing/setting up Asterisk in order to support Fax2Mail service? In my case, I would like Asterisk to receive fax calls to predefined numbers (ranges) and to associate each of these numbers to email addresses. Thank you in advance.

Hello All, I am looking to get asterisk to receive faxes but I really don't know where to go from here, any help pointing me in the right direction would be great. What I would really like is for this second line to answer faxes, but if a user typing in an extension it goes to that extension but I need to get the fax working first. Error I get when I turn on Fax conf... pbx.c:1945

Can anybody share information how to install NVBackgroundDetect? I have the app_nv_backgrounddetect.c but I'm missing: app_nv_backgrounddetect.o and app_nv_backgrounddetect.so and have no idea how to generate them. Wiki point to contact Newman Telecom but all I received was the app_nv_backgrounddetect.c and no instruction how how to install it. The installation instruction from wiki

I can't get a test T.38 fax between 2 1.6.2 machines, using app _fax and spandsp pre17 and 20100501.

I am having troubles with sending faxes. I hope someone can help me work out a better method. Basically we have a special address that our users can send to. It winds up on our Asterisk server which runs a Python script that parses the message for attachments and the phone number from the recipient address. The attachments are converted to TIFF and stored in a folder with various information

Does anyone know of any obscur reference for detecting an incoming fax. I currently have AMP running and everything else is working great. Installed the spandsp patches and software... using the default AMP extensions.conf, I start sending a fax, I hear it pick up and transfer to voicemail after 20s. Fax is set for system... Here is the detail from the extensions.conf [global] FAX_RX = system

Has anyone sucessfully implimented a fax or modem detection dial plan? I'm originating calls from asterisk using a list of numbers and dropping the destination into an IVR menu but need to do something different if a modem or fax answers. I tried to use the NVBackgroundDetect() application but i think that is for receiving faxes only. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

After a variety of connectivity problems, my itsp (Unlimitel.ca) blamed the problem on the IAX protocol. They told me that as of Asterisk 1.4 the IAX protocol went downhill and many carriers (like VoicePulse) are discontinuing support for IAX. Is this correct? We are all heading for SIP?

I'm trying to capture faxes on 1.6.1-beta4. AFAICT, app_fax is working OK. I'm then using fax2mail to send the fax. That wasn't working, so i posted for help using the System() cmd, since fax2mail did work from the command line. But now I realize it's fax2mail and mime-construct itself. I set up a fax-test context: [fax-test] exten=>666,1,NoOp( fax-test )
