[Freeswitch-users] t.38 Call Flow Information

Hi Anthony,
I got successful transmission working.  
I'm testing like this:
Fax Machine --> Linksys SPA-3102 --t.38-- > FS1 --audio --> FS2 (rxfax)
In analyzing the logs its seems FS2 was reporting the ECM was negotiated where the t38 side from was negotiating ECM off because the Linksys adapter doesn't do ECM.  By explicitly disabling ECM on the receiving end (FS2) everything is working.  Should it not negotiate ECM off all the way through?

Also, I'm still seeing late re-invites so I tried to do:
<action application="set" data="execute_on_answer=t38_gateway self nocng"/>

That fails with:
2012-12-21 17:00:19.617866 [WARNING] mod_spandsp_fax.c:1578 sofia/default/1002 at 10.59.1.195 Cannot locate channel with uuid f4b7afd8-4bd2-11e2-b9db-2fac9796034a

I took a look at mod_spandsp.c and can find any reason why that wouldn't work.  Am I missing something or should I file a jira?  The strange thing is that I use nocng with sip_execute_on_image and it works fine.

I'm struggling to understand the following call flow. I've excluded the audio portion for brevity but t38 is negotiated correctly by both endpoints (FS on our end and Acme on the other). Note the absence of a DIS message and the PPS prior to CFR. Can anyone shed any light on this?
