Re: [Freeswitch-users] Help needing translating Asterisk syntax to Freeswitch
by Bob Smith 13 Jan '12

Problem is Michael that I don't have an Asterisk box, that config line was from some instructions on their website where they document an Asterisk setup. I'd rather not download Asterisk and try to get to grips with something that I'll never have a need to use again, since getting to grips with FreeSwitch is keeping me busy enough ! >I would do is get a siptrace from it working on your Asterisk box and compare that with the sip trace from the freeswitch box.

MP3 playback sounds bad in Chrome, encoding issue?
by Eli Finkelman 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

Hi There, Whenever we playback an MP3 recording using the native Chrome MP3 player, it sounds really horrible, it jumps and crackles. When listening to it in Firefox/Safari it sounds just fine. Could there be an issue with the way FS is encoding the files? Is this just an issue with Chrome? We're using the native record_session method to record the MP3. switch_event.c:1521 Parsing variable [execute_on_answer]=[record_session /tmp/recordings/RE91fec223f65143e2aa5246b1f3a071a8.mp3] Here's a sample of what the audio sounds like, try playing this in Chrome in Firefox http://recordings.telapi.com/RB1cd90a0383114455830be5755c1891e6/RE91fec223f… Best Regards Eli

Does Freeswitch support Debian 6.0 (squeeze version) Linux on the PowerPC (AMCC Power PC 440EP Embedded 533 MHz Processor)?
by Andrew Keil 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

To Freeswitch Users, I am looking into purchasing a PIKA WARP Appliance (which currently ships with Asterisk) and try to get Freeswitch to run on it. Quick question, does Freeswitch support Debian 6.0 (squeeze version) Linux on the PowerPC (AMCC Power PC 440EP Embedded 533 MHz Processor)? If the answer is yes, can you provide a link to what I should download in order for me to build the latest Freeswitch and get it running on this platform. Any comments are also welcome. Thanks in advance for your response. Andrew Keil

Re: [Freeswitch-users] script vs scripts directories, what's the difference ?
by Bob Smith 13 Jan '12

Seems weird, as "script" has a creation date/time exactly the same as my grammar,htdocs,recordings directories (Dec 16 23:04) Either way it's empty.... so the only thing I can think of is it might have been something to that specific checkout. Seeing as it's empty I might as well rm' it then. Thanks Bob >I'm pretty sure that "script" is not created by the freeswitch install >process. I know for a fact that "scripts" is and it's the default path for >lua, perl, js, etc. scripts called from the cmd line or dialplan.

valet_park timeout
by Bob Smith 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

Hello All, I found an old thread from October 2010 entitled "valet_park timeout and spot announcement" (http://lists.freeswitch.org/pipermail/freeswitch-users/2010-October/064143.…) I also found this tread from March 2011 entitled "valet parking improvements" (http://lists.freeswitch.org/pipermail/freeswitch-dev/2011-March/004778.html) Could anyone tell me whether : 1/ Timeouts have made it into the tree ? As far as I can tell they have not ? 2/ Are there perhaps now better way to achieve the same goal ? (e.g. looking at the console, I see a variable generated called valet_ticket ?) Basically I don't want to run into the same problems Jeremy did, i.e : "If the call is transferred somewhere else first or picked up from the first park on a different extension and then parked again, it doesn't recall the second parker." Thanks Bob

Dial by IP
by Brian Foster 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

I have some phones on my network that are capable of dialing a SIP URI. It seems by default FreeSWITCH doesn't allow this, as it just picks up everything before the @ and puts it as the destination number. Is there a way to allow this? What would be needed in the dialplan?

Improving mod_conference for H.264 video // bounty?
by Roland Hänel 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Dear all, We're looking for a way to improve the user experience with FreeSwitch's mod_conference when video (H.264) is involved. After some investigation in mod_26x's source code it seems that the creator actually had the idea to switch video (based on who has the floor) only on H.26x keyframes, but this was not fully implemented (i.e. it doesn't really work well). Maybe someone from the FreeSwitch guys could advise me about the way how to put up a bounty for improvements in this area. I found some boundy lists in the wiki, other things in Jira, and I'm not sure where to post my whishes (and maybe also a hint what amount of $'s seems appropriate here). Basically, that's what we need: - switch video source only on H.264 keyframes to avoid artifacts when the stream switches to a new floor member - feature to throttle floor changes in conference (i.e. floor is only changed after some time of activity, to prevent very frequent video stream changes) - investigation whether the codec parameter negotiation can be influenced/improved for H.264 passthru, e.g. to allow for specific profiles in SDP a=fmtp parameters Greetings, Roland

Conference Anonymous BBB
by Torstein Knutsen 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hi I am thinkering with FreeSWITCH and BigBlueButton conferences. I have on server running FS, and the BBB server is connected via EventSocket. Now, my challenge is regarding to Private numbers. I can't seem to get the conference to respect privacy. I set (in dialplan) <action application="set" data="caller_id_number=0000"/> <action application="conference" data="11111111@webconf"/> BUT : While monitoring the Event socket on the CUSTOM Actoin:add-member, the caller_id number is back to the original. This cases my setup to leak Privacy marked numbers. I'm not running (FreeSWITCH Version 1.0.head (git-8fde25c 2011-10-20 13-15-58 -0500)) Is there any way around this ? Thank you ! Torstein

script vs scripts directories, what's the difference ?
by Bob Smith 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

My freeswitch base directory contains the following directories : bin conf db grammar htdocs include lib log mod recordin run script scripts sounds storage What's the difference between "script" and "scripts" ? Seems a bit silly to me to have such confusingly similar names in the same parent directory !
