[Technical Support]

Downgrade your spandsp.  Do some reading on spandsp first!

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] txfax application problem

Nobody seems to use txfax or does nobody have any problems with it?
I have sent mails to most lists and get no reply.
I cannot get a fax to go through with txfax.
I use a call file as a test and all I get on the receiving fax is a bunch of
vertical lines.

my call file is:

Channel:Srx/gout/4658158
MaxRetries: 0
WaitTime: 20
Application:txfax
Data:/etc/asterisk/testfax.tif|caller|debug

FYI tiffinfo on file is:

TIFF Directory at offset 0x733e
  Image Width: 1728 Image Length: 1161
  Resolution: 77, 38.5 pixels/cm
  Bits/Sample: 1
  Compression Scheme: CCITT Group 3
  Photometric Interpretation: min-is-white
  FillOrder: lsb-to-msb
  Date & Time: "2006/01/11 18:06:14"
  Host Computer: "asterisk.equation.co.za"
  Orientation: row 0 top, col 0 lhs
  Samples/Pixel: 1
  Rows/Strip: (infinite)
  Planar Configuration: single image plane
  Page Number: 0-1
  Software: spandsp
  Group 3 Options: 2-d encoding+EOL padding (5 = 0x5)
  Fax Data: clean (0 = 0x0)
  Fax Receive Time: 29 secs

what is going on here?
I have used latest spandsp-0.0.3pre23 with it's app_txfax.c and tiff-3.7.1
from source I have also used just about every other spandsp and libtiff
combo but no joy with sending the faxes.

PLEASE HELP!!
