Disable media one leg?
This is a funny question. I'm setting up a call-in line to listen to to streaming audio. On this particular setup, there's no options - no dtmf, nothing at all for the user to do other than listen or hang up. So can I disable the RTP on the leg from the caller to my server, to not waste bandwidth? (Although it's inbound, so I don't actually pay for that.) e.g. can I set MY inbound RTP ip/port to null? Even if FS supports this, will this possibly not play well with the carrier? Thanks! -Avi
I am trying to make sense of what you are trying to do with no luck. If FS is going to be streaming the audio the media path is obviously essential, especially if it's going to be doing some transcoding with mod_shout or something similar. How do you expect the audio to be carried if you drop the RTP? If the carrier is playing the stream and all it needs is a session to be acknowledged by FS (e.g.: early media music ringtone) try ring_ready from your dialplan. Please clarify further.

I want to drop HALF the RTP. FS -> endpoint should send media, but the other leg of the RTP inbound should just be dropped and not bother the interweb. -Avi On Sun, Dec 16, 2012 at 3:43 PM, Emrah <lists@kavun.ch> wrote:

This might not be the best way, but you could make a 2 person conference with the listener muted and the controls disabled. Then you could also use rtp vad <http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/VAD_and_CNG> to reduce the bandwidth. Again, I'm not sure if these would stack appropriately, but it seems feasible.

Ah ha! I get it now. VAD sounds like what you may be looking for. http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/VAD_and_CNG On Dec 16, 2012, at 9:25 AM, Nick Vines <jnvines@gmail.com> wrote:

If you look at mod conference there is the waste flag, if there is no media to send to a channel, mod_conference doesn't send media to it... You should start looking there On 12/16/12 10:34 AM, "Emrah" <lists@kavun.ch> wrote:

Hmm, it sounds like I want rtp_enable_vad_in - for incoming media to be reduced, if I understand it correctly .. Where do I set this? I presume silence threshold set on the opposite end, and I can't set something very high to ensure no audio at all comes to me. -Avi On Sun, Dec 16, 2012 at 6:34 PM, Emrah <lists@kavun.ch> wrote:
