[Freeswitch-users] freeswitch, openzap, dahdi issues...

[Anthony Minessale]

Look at it this way.

The PRI signaling is a data channel, it's got nothing to do with echo
cancelers.  The echo can is for the audio legs.
The OSLEC is a kernel module and dahdi is Digiums driver also a kernel
module. OpenZAP only opens these devices and uses them as advertised.

Keep in mind, When we added support for digium cards it was when there was
still zaptel and every day they change things in their code which is mostly
kernel space and they have absolutely no interest in having it work on
FreeSWITCH, even though we are both open source applications they treat
FreeSWITCH like a threat.

You are trying to escape from asterisk but you are still using mostly their
technology.

So bottom line changing around which pri stack you use is not going to solve
audio problems.
All OpenZAP does with digium cards is open the device and read and write
from it.
If you are getting no audio the problem is happening in the kernel before
OpenZAP gets to see anything.


My suggestion is to look at /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/zt.conf
there is a line
echo_cancel_level => 64

try erasing or commenting it out with a leading ;

>From my recollection when you use OSLEC, you have to disable the
dahdi/zaptel echo canceler.

This is the only setting I can think of that allows OpenZAP to influence the
dahdi kernel mod.

BTW, you got that card for $100 because it really is worth that much, maybe
less ;)

Everyone who uses Sangoma cards with OpenZAP have no audio problems at all.
