hey everyone. just wondering if anyone has tested recording conferences at 48000h celt to a shoutcast stream or wav file.
we are able to have cd quality conferences with 3 members each using the celt codec with little or no noise disturbances or skipping.
but when we try to record the conference either to a wav file or to a shoutcast stream, the quality significantly decreases due to skipping or popping noises.
im not sure but maybe we are having this problem because our server doesnt have the CPU power to handle reencoding on the fly like that.
we are using a 2.8ghz amd64 dual core, 4gig ddr 800 as our freeswitch server.
im thinking if there is a way to record the conference as a celt audio file (instead of reencoding to mp3) that may reduce the CPU power needed and therefore solve the problem or we just need a more powerful server.
could anyone recommended what kind of server we would need to handle such instances as i described above? thank you.

You forgot to tell us what revision of the code you're on?

"latest" isn't a number... Can you provide the exact SVN rev you're on?

the conferences were recorded as wav files, i then converted them to mp3, both sound the same to me

You're doing distributed radio right? So callers are calling in with CELT from all over the place? Can you contact us on IRC because we are very interested in debugging this issue.

You can get us on IRC #freeswitch on irc.freenode.net


Thanks,

We are attempting distributed radio. We plan on having the hosts of the shows join the conference using CELT. But callers to the show would be joining using regular phones therefore using lower end codecs. I will be in the IRC shortly.

I changed the code in tree that probably fixed it in both cases. It should be good now.
