[Freeswitch-users] Error loading portaudio module

[Giovanni Maruzzelli]

Hi there,

you have to use the "default" ALSA audio device to share it, and to
have it automatically format and rate converted.

the "default" ALSA device is not the default portaudio device (not in
the portaudio version used currently by FS).

You have to find out what device id it has under portaudio.

But in this specific case, no device at all was found.

So, maybe portaudio was not commpiled with ALSA support (do you have the ALSA


Sincerely,

Giovanni Maruzzelli
