Hi Jean Marc & List, So I have been fiddling with the denoiser (again). While poking around I noticed that nb_preprocess is basically a counter that is mod-ded with 100 (the default), which causes Smin[] to be re- seeded with the value in Stmp[] (min of the previous adaptation period). Smin[] is then used to update the noise probability, which is (probably) less likely when adaptation

Hi, I might have written to this mailing list previously about this but I've been experiencing some mailing problems so I write this again. First of all, thanks Jean-Marc Valin for your continued efforts on speex. I must say that I am very impressed with Speex and further more the innovative features recently added in 1.1. They have worked great for me. Question 1) What is the return value

CELP based coders perform poorly when you mix streams. Perhaps, we need a transform code or a subband code at somewhat higher rate 12-16 kbps that will retain the quality after transcoding and mixing. Is the speex ultra-wideband based on subband coding? -Devendra Jalihal <p>On Fri, 21 Nov 2003, Ulrich B. Staudinger wrote: > Hi, > been silent in this discussion for quite long ...

Anyone have any idea if the any of the Sharc or TigerSHARC DSPs are powerful enough to do realtime Speex? <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'speex-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Has it been a whole week since a question about VAD? :-) I am curious why the VAD algorithm described in G.729 Annex B is not used by Speex. Complexity, Patent, Quality, or what? -mjc

Hello, I am working with speex codec, especially its VAD part. I need to know what algorithm it is using for silence detection and where I can get some documentation for it. I will be very greatful for your help. -Abhishek

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

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?

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

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, Is there is some form of VAD on * for SIP channels, cause I have a problem with MOH. I made an extension which simply plays MOH, when I dial that extension with my ATA188 MOH sounds choppy if I talk on the phone the MOH keeps playing. I saw the sip channel (show channel SIP/*) and I see no packets going in/out when I talk then packets shows going in/out. I don?t have this kind of problem

Hi, I decide to write to the list because of a strange behaviour when updating from version 1.1.12 to 1.2rc1. My software was running fine with version 1.1.12, but now I want to benefit from advances on AEC. After updating the library to 1.2rc1 and do few changes on my sources, I run the application and discovered that VAD doesn't work so fine as in previous version 1.1.12 (3 years ago). I

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 transmission of VAD/CNG samples by specifying "outbound" in the communication channel only 1 bit instead of sending the whole VAD/CNG packet. I am doing the same for AMR

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

Hi Aymeric, > 2 questions: I count 4 :-) > * Do you "feel" that the current svn is enough stable Yes. I'm planning on releasing it as 1.2beta3 this week. Even in normal time, I try to keep svn in good shape so it is almost always better than the last release. And even when it breaks, Speex bugs tend to be very obvious and easy to reproduce (no segfaults that happen once a

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

There's no perfect solution to the multiple client problem. Each approach has advantages and drawbacks: 1) Mixing at the server - Allows a constant bandwidth for every client - Allows compatibility with regular VoIP prones - Requires transcoding, even when only on person is talking - Higher bit-rate required for the general case (one speaker is talking) 2) Sending multiple streams - Possible

speex_preprocess() isn't covered in the manual, is it? But, it's very easy to use. If it returns non-zero, voice was detected.
