Is transcoding a wav file something that I should try to avoid? I have my files encoded as 16kbit, 8000hz, mono files, yet still in the logs I see: 2009-05-27 11:55:18 [DEBUG] switch_ivr_play_say.c:1084 switch_ivr_play_file() Codec Activated L16@8000hz 1 channels 20ms 2009-05-27 11:55:18 [DEBUG] switch_core_io.c:649 switch_core_session_write_frame() sofia/internal/ 5853297721@64.24.35.78 receive message [TRANSCODING_NECESSARY] I have to think that not transcoding would be easier on the server, yet I don't know why it needs to transcode the audio file if it is, I think, already in the correct format for that codec... -- Greg Thoen, Vice President CGI Communications, Inc. 1-585-427-0020 x260 http://www.cgicommunications.com/ http://www.elocallink.com/
Chances are those wav files are L16 either way its not an issue to transcode those... now if you were transcoding 48k to 8k all day long then I would worry but I think you're looking for savings in places where it doesn't matter in FreeSWITCH. /b On May 27, 2009, at 11:25 AM, Greg Thoen wrote:
