back recorded messages.<BR>They sound clear..but there are lots of breaks during
playback (like its<BR>losing packets). I got top-end hardware and I'm on a
killer network so its<BR>not that. I've talked over my SIP line using a
regular telephone and it<BR>sounds great, so its not the VOIP provider.
Asterisk is working great with<BR>no other problems. So I'm thinking one
of two things:<BR><BR>More Obvious: The other thing I noticed is I get a
warning on asterisk when<BR>I start the console saying the chan_oss it requested
8000 Hz but got 48000<BR>Hz -- sound may be choppy. I am using the onboard
sound card. Does<BR>Asterisk use a sound card to play the audio over VOIP
or is sound card only<BR>needed if I have a physical phone hooked up to the
computer?<BR><BR>Less Obvious: Will the size and quality of a GSM audio
file effect the<BR>playback? all my files were converted from wav files
(22k 16bit stereo) to<BR>8k mono GSM....the sound quality is fine, its just
playback is choppy and<BR>wondering if playing with the actual GSM file format
would change anything.<BR><BR>Gabe</FONT><BR></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
