similar to: problems with echo cancellation filter

Hi! I want to use speex for echo cancellation in my program, but I have bad results. I will explain what my program does. it is a client-server application. I run a server in room A and a client in room B. the client sends some voice to the server and the server plays it on loudspeakers. I run another server in room B and connects to it from room A using the same application that runs

I am using 'portaudio' and 'speex' to implement a speech audio capture/playback. Preprocess works fine but not the echo canceller (associated with preprocessor). I have read 'testecho.c' but it didn't help me. What I am doing bad? This is my implementation: One thread to capture and playback, both are different functions called in different times directly from

Hi Jim, I've just been made aware of these problems (look for the thread "speex echo cancellation limitations").

I ran some further tests on mdf and here are the results: 1. reduced tail length to 100ms, aligned mic and speaker signals to within 10ms - almost no echo attenuation 2. aligned mic and speaker signals to within 5 samples - still almost no echo attenuation 3. ran testecho using the same file for mic and speaker - very good echo cancellation (of course this is expected, but I needed to do a sanity

I'm pretty much sure of it. When I test inverting the inputs, my output is pretty much the same as my speaker signal. Whereas the way that I normally test the output is my mic signal with very little attenuation. If you are interested I can send my test files; they are about 94KB each. -Jason --- Jean-Marc Valin <jean-marc.valin@usherbrooke.ca> wrote: > Are you sure you're

Just tried your files and I'm not running into any infinite loops and the cancellation works fine. Unless the C6x has the same problem, I suspect a 16-bit problem. I'll check and see if I find something. About the r=0 problem, I can't find where it ends up in a denominator, so I suspect is not (directly) the problem.

I am trying to use the speex echo canceler and preprocessor with sipXtapi to develop a sip user agent. the sipXmedialib call flow graph uses 10ms frames and I am not sure what the implications are if I try to change this. The documentation seemed to indicate that a 20ms frame was recomended, but it didn't go into the consquences of using other frame sizes. We are going to use headsets

Had a try. The reason why a simple delay is not that good is mainly due to the initialization of the filter parameter that still takes a few seconds (if they are perfectly in sync, you sort of get lucky). Otherwise, you real recording seems to have something odd in it. Are you sampling from a different card then the one that's playing the sound? or maybe the mic (or something else) in the room

Hi, For my VoIP application machine A sends speex encoded audio of to machine B and vice versa at. Data is captured in PCM 8Khz, 16 bit and then encoded using speex 1.1.12 The packet A played and the packet A captured through mic are the input to speex echo canceller. So I am trying to remove traces of packet A played from the captured data. I have followed example testecho.c All I hear is some

Hi, Indeed I too have troubles implementing echo removal, I like ask kindly to Jean-Marc (or any other) if him can put a source code demo to show us how to use effectively echo removal API and parameters in real case scenario.

Hi, If I pass the same ref and the echo data to the echo cancellation API, I am expecting silence as output. I get back the original audio data. Is this correct?

Hi Jean-Marc, I tried with both testecho and my test program, and for some reason it just doesn't cancel any echoes with the 1.2-rc1. The testecho from beta3 binaries works fine, and also if I replaced mdf.c in 1.2-rc1 with mdf.c from beta3 and use my test program, it will work again. This happens for both 8KHz and 16KHz. Any ideas? I could upload the test samples and results if needed.

Jean-Marc, I have traced the second infinite loop further. When st->adapted becomes true (mdf.c line 623), the first Yf[i] value is 4, the leak_estimate is 0xd4e, the resulting r is 3. The first value in st->Rf is 0, so e is 1, and r is set to e>>1, or 0. A little later there is a divide by r, and there is the hang. It seems that the 0 in Rf[0] is the problem, but I am not

Hello Jean-Marc, I solved the variable delay problem, but I still have trouble with speex_echo_cancel(). When i try testecho.c with clean speech for far-end input and same speech with attenuation, a bit of reverb and 50-150 ms delay, all this done in sound editor, for mic input, i get 5-8 db attenuation. But when i use the same speech played and recorded for mic input, i see about 5 db of

Hello, Need some help using the speex_echo_cancel. I've read the documentation about the speex_echo_cancellation function: speex_echo_cancellation(echo_state, input_frame, echo_frame, output_frame); (in) echo_state => speex internal state. (in) input_frame => audio captured by mic. (in) echo_frame => the signal that was played in the speaker. (out) output_frame => the

Isn't this the same problem described starting at the bottom of this page? http://www.embeddedstar.com/articles/2003/7/article20030720-11.html Jean-Marc Valin <jean-marc.valin@usherbrooke.ca> wrote: > > > As it says in 5.4.1 of the good book "Using a different soundcard to do > > the capture and playback will *not* work, regardless of what you may > > think.
