FreeSWITCH Week in Review (Master Branch) November 28th – December 5th

Our features this week include: improvements to the auto bitrate features in mod_conference, the addition of the Debian install script for the verto communicator, and separate controls for gain and volume for verto. Join us Wednesdays at 12:00 CT for some more FreeSWITCH fun! This week we have Tsahi Levent-Levi talking about WebRTC! And head over to freeswitch.com to learn more about FreeSWITCH support.

New features that were added:

• FS-8595 [mod_conference] Improve auto bitrate in personal canvas mode and do not let auto bitrate exceed native picture size

Improvements in build system, cross platform support, and packaging:

• FS-8614 [verto_communicator] Add Debian developers install script and update README.md to reference it

The following bugs were squashed:

• FS-8585 [mod_commands] Expanded {} and <> to [] for each dial string in group_call to allow for multiple device registrations for the same user
• FS-8589 [mod_conference] Fixed using conference playback with full-screen=true not working correctly
• FS-8354 [mod_conference] Fixed G722 audio issues with mod_conference caused by previous commit fab43547

• FS-8599 [verto] Removed a workaround for Mozilla that is no longer needed for video size
• FS-8590 [verto_communicator] Fixed sending malformed vid-res-id command when changing layouts by treating no res-id the same as clear
• FS-8612 [core] Fixed a rare IVR originated calls crash due to read codec leak
• FS-8619 [mod_rayo] Reply with conflict stanza error if bind is attempted with duplicate JID. Improve error handling when ‘ready’ callback fails.

The FreeSWITCH 1.4 branch had a couple of bug fixes back ported. And again, keep in mind that 1.4 is quickly moving toward end of life and won’t be supported any longer except for high level security issues.

The following bugs were squashed:
