Before I got an log a ticket, can I just check I'm not doing anything wrong?
In 15.2, to install Opus:
1) run `make menuselect`
2) Highlight "Codec Translators" and press enter.
3) Scroll down to "codec_opus" in the section labeled "External"
4) Press enter to select the codec if it is not already selected.
... at this point, I see
XXX codec_opus
and a message to download codec opus from Digium, using this link:
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_opus/README
(note: same as http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_opus/asterisk-15.0/x86-64/
)
The link says:
The preferred way of installing the Opus codec is to use menuselect in
Asterisk to automatically download and install the codec. From the Asterisk
top-level source directory, run
1) run `make menuselect`
2) Highlight "Codec Translators" and press enter.
3) Scroll down to "codec_opus" in the section labeled "External"
4) Press enter to select the codec if it is not already selected.
... well, you've guessed it, I'm in a loop now!
There's another way:
" The alternative way to install codec_opus is to download a tarball
directly from digium.com. Once the tarball is downloaded and untarred,
perform the following steps:
1) Copy the codec_opus.so file into the Asterisk module directory (by default,
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules/).
2) Copy the codec_opus_config-en_US.xml file into the Asterisk external
documentation directory (by default,"
But there are two files:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 354000 Dec 11 23:16 codec_opus.so*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 226576 Dec 11 23:16 format_ogg_opus.so*
Not saying this latter part is beyond my comprehension, just that
neither route matches the instructions :)
So... is it me being stupid, or should I log a ticket?
