[asterisk-dev] Question about AMD/WaitforSilence errors on EC2

[Jamuel Starkey]

This is a question mostly for asterisk-users list. But take a look at the latest dahdi-linux as there is no need for compiling dahdi/zt-dummy drivers for timing.

Subject: [asterisk-dev] Question about AMD/WaitforSilence errors on EC2

Hello,

I have two asterisk systems both on 1.6.2.6. One is on a server at my
home, the other is on Amazon EC2. They both have the same code, same
SIP provider, they both use the same account on the SIP provider.

AMD and WaitforSilence on the server work fine. AMD detects
machine/human in a second or two. WaitForSilence waits as long as I
ask.

AMD and WaitForSIlence don't work on EC2. AMD always returns NOTSURE
and takes less than a half second. WaitForSIlence waits less than half
a second no matter what input I give it and no matter what sound is on
the other end.

Looking through the source code, it seems to me that on EC2 I get:

f->frametype == AST_FRAME_NULL

or something like that. I'm not too familiar with the internals, but
clearly, something is wrong.

Anyway, here's what I see from the console on EC2:

-- AMD: SIP/xxxxxxx 5555555555 (null) (Fmt: 64)
-- AMD: initialSilence [2500] greeting [1500] afterGreetingSilence
[800] totalAnalysisTime [5000] minimumWordLength [100]
betweenWordsSilence [50] maximumNumberOfWords [3] silenceThreshold [0]
maximumWordLength [5000]
-- AMD: Channel [SIP/xxxxxxx]. Changed state to STATE_IN_SILENCE
-- AMD: Channel [SIP/xxxxxxx]. Too long...
-- AMD: Channel [SIP/xxxxxxx]. Too long...

After further investigation, it seems it might be a timing issue
related to ztdummy.  Unfortunately, I can't seem to compile ztdummy on
EC2.  Can anyone help with the error or otherwise with a binary of
ztdummy that would work on EC2?

Thanks in advance,

Jimmy
