FreeSWITCH Week in Review (Master Branch) September 5th-11th

Hello, again. This past week in the FreeSWITCH master branch we had 35 commits. This week we had one feature: the handling of  a=sendonly, a=sendrecv, a=recvonly to change who is sending video during a call.

Join us on Wednesdays at 12:00 CT for some more FreeSWITCH fun! And head over to freeswitch.com to learn more about FreeSWITCH support.

New features that were added:

• FS-8053 Handle a=sendonly, a=sendrecv, a=recvonly to change who is sending video during a call

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

• FS-7168 [Debian] Update packages so that FS core libraries are setup as runtime dependencies
• FS-7697 Chown the /etc/freeswitch/tls directory so that the freeswitch user can have read/write for TLS certificate generation
• FS-7966 [Windows] Explore use of nuget for wix build dependency
• FS-7967 [build] SmartOS compatibility
• FS-1772 [mod_voicemail] Fixed a build error
• FS-8072 [Debian] Fixed a missed space

The following bugs were squashed:

• FS-8130  Port video buffer to also support audio and remove original STFU jitter buffer, add some more resilience to video packet loss, add codec control mechanism for both call-specific debug and codec/call specific parameters, make opus function better in packet loss and latent situations, use new codec control prams to make jitter buffer lookahead FEC optionally enabled or disabled mid-call, and add a parameter to allow jitter buffer lookahead to be enabled.
• FS-8131 [mod_voicemail] Fixed issues with allowing an empty password change and then locking out the user
• FS-8136 [mod_h26x] Do not load passthru video codecs by default
• FS-8140 [mod_sofia] Fixed a user_name typo in sofia_handle_sip_i_invite
• FS-8142 Fixed  a thread cache thread-safety and caching
• FS-8075 [mod_hiredis] Fix for failover when you pull power on redis, while redis clients under load test
• FS-8144 [mod_opus] Readability and code formatting cleanup
• FS-8126 [switch_core] Fixed the pruning of a media bug causing all media bugs on a session to be pruned
• FS-8143 [mod_rayo] Fixed a crash caused by client disconnecting from mod_rayo while a message is being delivered to that client. This is caused by the XMPP context’s JID -> XMPP stream mapping not being cleaned up on XMPP stream destruction.
• FS-8147 [event_handlers] Fixed the process spawning segfault
• FS-8149 [mod_xml_cdr] Fixed curl dependency in makefile

And, this past week in the FreeSWITCH 1.4 branch we had 9 new commits merged in from master. And the FreeSWITCH 1.4.21 release is here! Go check it out!

The following bugs were fixed:

• FS-8143 [mod_rayo] Fixed a crash caused by client disconnecting from mod_rayo while a message is being delivered to that client. This is caused by the XMPP context’s JID -> XMPP stream mapping not being cleaned up on XMPP stream destruction.
• FS-8127 [mod_conference] Fixed an audio issue caused by the codec not updating often enough when detecting rate change
• FS-8099 [mod_lua] Restored LUA dialplan ACTIONS functionality
• FS-8142 Fixed thread cache thread-safety and caching
