[Asterisk-Users] fax receive using TDM400P

[Anton Krall]

So, why/how is iaxmodem/hylafax more sucessful in receiveing faxes thru tdm
than rxfax? 

I havent been able to get faxes with rxfax, all faxes come in as garbage or
broken or just the first page.

Im hoping and placing my bet on iaxmodem.

|You're mixing thinks: iaxmodem+hylafax is equivalent to 
|rx_fax/tx_fax, both are based on spandsp which is the library.
