[Asterisk-Users] How do I install speex for asterisk?

[Matt Roth]

Jesus,

If you recompile Asterisk and still have problems, take a look in 
"/codecs/Makefile".  It'll tell you where Asterisk expects to find stuff 
in order to trigger the building of the speex-related objects.  If the 
build goes as planned, the "/codecs" directory will contain three 
speex-related files:

- codec_speex.c
- codec_speex.o
- codec_speex.so

On my box, a "yum install speex-devel" took care of everything for me.  
I only did this to ensure some changes that I made to codec_speex.c 
would compile, so I have no experience with using the actual codec.  
Nonetheless, I hope this information is helpful to you.

Good luck,
