Hi Majdi, It is good to know that once the audio stream is in the right 'format', Freeswitch is able to decode the DTMF's to digits. (as best it can given the potential jitter and lossy quality of the signal) I'm sure someone on the list has the answer and it will quite simple. So here we go: How do we convert the audio stream from mod_skypiax into to a suitable format that <action application="start_dtmf" /> can attempt to decode the 'Inband' DTMF tones into digits? At present it seems that the decoder will not work on a 16Kbps stream. Perhaps this has been explained and not understood? Ideally Skype would decode the DTMF tones ingress to the Skype network at the PSTN-Skype gateway and pass on as out of band signaling. Either through bad design or intentionally they do not. It seems though at some locations (New Zealand) they did, then did not? Perhaps on their paid for (approx $9 AUD per month) SIP trunks they do? Or is this just as hit and miss as well? Does any body have any experience with those? -Scott On Wed, 03 Feb 2010 20:42 -0600, "BSOUL Majdi" <Majdi.Bsoul@alcatel-lucent.com> wrote:

I just saw your JIRA, so definitely by your comment date so close you might still blocked on that resolution.

I used SiptoSis with a single channel and because it passes the stream to Freeswitch as PCMU, it allows FS to detect correctly. And this proves that the inband DTMF quality coming from Skype is good enough.

I am trying to see if I can use stsTrunkBuilder to support multiple interfaces, but looks that it requires different skype account for each instance, rather than allowing me to use single instance for all instances as skypiax does.

Hello Scott,

I thought I catch up with you and see if you had found a solution for the skypiax dtmf detection in FS issue that you reported in Dec?

I am running with the same issue.

Thanks,
