Hi Yossi, I agree it shouldn't be CPU intensive (and have nothing to suggest that it is!). I've been told now that the quality is acceptable, even if it sounds poor to me! ;-) Maybe will try with other codecs and see. Alex

Just started playing with call recording on Freeswitch
Saving as WAV and the sound quality is really poor - very muffled and possibly chunks of sound missing.
The actual call is using PCMA 8KHz. The recording is Wave PCM signed 16 bit, 8000 Hz, 256 kbps, stereo
Any idea what's going on? Are there any CPU constraints? When you use the recording functions, it will always transcode out to slinear 16 bit to the native rate of the channel (in this case a sample rate of 8000). The question that I have is this - when you select g711ulaw or another codec, do you end up with the same results as your test with g711alaw?
Converting from g711alaw to slin16 should not be a CPU intensive conversion.
