similar to: Meetme - is this statement from the Wiki still true?

I have found a site that list the following (no date in the post, so it may be old): "since all transcoding and calls still go through one core in asterisk, it doesn't make sense to buy a multi-core or hyperthreaded system that will only slow you down" Does that still applies in asterisk 1.2.14/1.4.x ? Or do we have to tweak source code to balance loads (transcoding,etc) between

As stated here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+MeetMe A Meetme room uses Ulaw as the audio codec, so if the other channels use different codecs, then * will transcode. Does the app_conference application works the same way? Or if i have SIP/g729 users and i create a conference with other users also at g729 asterisk will not transcode (when using app_conference)?

How do I set up an existing call to dial out to a new terminal which is included in a conference with the two existing legs of the call? When the dialplan executes the Dial(<terminal>) command, control does not return to the dialplan until the terminal disconnects, after which it's obviously too late to conference it. Is there a conference command or option that lets the dialplan dial

Are there any speakerphones or other conferencing HW phones that play the audio in stereo? Either their own speakers, or jacks for an amp with room speakers? Is there any way for Asterisk to deliver call legs with stereo channels in the RTP stream? If not, is it possible for Asterisk to keep 2 separate calls, or pairs of legs in a conference call, synced exactly enough (including traveling over

Hello Michael, you are referring to the following behavior - did I get it correctly?: outbound broken: asterisk offers g722 / g711 to provider (callee), callee answers g711. Asterisk now transcodes between caller and callee (g722 <-> g711). inbound works: call from provider: g711 -> asterisk drops g722 and passes g711 to internal callee -> no transcoding. As far as I know,

hello, I will do a server to do a lots of conferences (MeetMe). I want to know that if I dont use a digum card, the limit of simultaneous calls is harder without a card than with a card ?if, yes, how harder is the limit? thank you Cordialement, BERGANZ Fran?ois P Pensez ? l'Environnement, n'imprimez ce mail que si n?cessaire. -------------- next part --------------

Hi all, We have Xeon-based system with only 1 (hyperthreaded) CPU (in a HP DL360). We are seeing high load on multiple meetme session as well as g729 transcoding. My question is will putting an extra CPU help or does Asterisk just run on a single CPU. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi all. What is the best hardware configuration to handle this following scenario? - 4 IVR menu with conference applications for each option; - Only SIP/g711 user access - 3500 simultaneous users(800 at the beginning) - No ZAP channels Where is the most important point of failure? CPU? Ethernet? RAM? Im planning to separate in three servers: Server01: 01 Xeon 3Ghz getting the 1st level of

I've got an Asterisk (v1.2.11) installation running, but it doesn't seem to have the Meetme() app. At the CLI, I type Meetme , and it responds No such command 'Meetme'; meetme doesn't show up in CLI show modules . I'm running a SIP-only server at a datacenter where I can't add Digium (or any other) HW, and am running under CentOS. There is an /etc/asterisk/meetme.conf

I'm trying to use Asterisk (v1.2.11) make a callback that dials both legs of the call into a Meetme() room together, but I keep getting "conf-invalid" messages. I created a callfile (/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/out.call) that specifies a Local channel (extension) which contains a Dial() command to the "dialer", and an extension which contains a Dial() command to the

Hello What soundfile format, is the one that uses least transcoding during playback? As I can see, I can choose wav or gsm. What sucks least cpu power, during playback to example a Zap channel? I would guess wav, but is this correct? Kind Regards Jon Leren Sch?pzinsky -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.1.408 / Virus Database: 268.13.11/496 -

Can Meetme be made to work with G.729? (I gather not) If a call comes in (internally or externally), the call comes in as a G.729 call, which then re-negotiates to a G.711u call when if gets transferred to a MeetMe room. Is there a way to set up asterisk that will allow me to have internal phones renegotiate to G.711, with the external lines instead transcoding within asterisk. (runtime is more

I have a SIP carrier which accepts only G729 connections from my Asterisk server. If all the server does is Dial() (out) two legs of a call which are natively bridged, with no processing the media (and no DTMF detection, etc), do I need to install a G729 codec of my own? All the media from each leg connected to the other is already encoded into G729 by the SIP carrier from which it's coming

Hey folks, Using FreeBSD 5.2.1 and I've got the current zaptel driver installed from ports (0.8_1) and current ports asterisk (1.0.1). I've set options HZ=1000 in my kernel config, recompiled and rebooted and as far as I can tell, I've done everything right but when I try to use the conference, the audio is very delayed, choppy and segmented -- totally unusable. At the

I have Meetme conferencing compiled for Debian as per http://powerontech.com/freepbx-on-debian.htm . I drop a callfile in the outgoing dir, and it intitiates a call to a local extension as a channel, but the call seems to block on the Meetme() command. That extension completes the outgoing Dial(SIP) command to my phone, announcing that leg is the only member of the conference, and just waits. If I

Hi guys, I need to realize a sort of automatic call monitoring dialplan. This is exactly what I need: - A user originate a call - When the call is bridged (or just before) I need to invite automatically a third party to the conversation that should hear the audio channel but not speak (it's a monitoring application for a callcenter) The person in charge of monitoring cannot use ChanSpy or

Hi all, I have spent some time searching, but I haven't found a way to prevent * from concatenating two frames into one IAX packet. I have a situation where I make an IAX GSM call to *, which transcodes to an iLBC SIP call. Every second voice packet the IAX client receives contains 2x 20ms frames, the other containing only one. I presume this is related to the mismatch of 20ms GSM vs

Hi everyone. I am looking at providing a conference for up to 300 people and was wondering if anyone has scaled meetme to 300 people. Here are some points: 1) I am using an IAX2 gateway hosted on a VOIP service provider. 2) The machine is hosted at the providers site so one has to assume that bandwidth is not going to be an issue. 3) Everything is coming in as ULAW so we won't need to

Hi guys, i'm trying to use the "featuremap" of features.conf inside the app meetme, but it's no working. like: _5XXX => { Set(DYNAMIC_FEATURES=toca_macaco); MeetMe(${EXTEN},F); //F forces the meetme to pass DTMF Hangup(); }; in features.conf: toca_macaco => 123, peer, Playback,tt-monkeys But, if, inside the room, I press *123* the sound file

Hi, is there a way to use g729 in meetme? Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20070929/74f6e5d9/attachment.htm
