We could probably combine pieces of the vr and gd code to get something working. A peer of mine suggested using FFT with a neural network, but I honestly think that backend is going to take way too much processing, too much effort, and beat the purpose. I'm sure we can get something that works well enough and that fits in the 20ms frames.<br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br>Justin<br><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Jeff LaCoursiere <jeff@jeff.net><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial
