Cosmetic issues PTLib v2.0.1 with VS2008-SP1
by Marcos Fábio Jardini 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hello Reporting some cosmetic issues during compiling PTLib on VS2008-SP1. The files: vsdl.cxx pvfiledev.cxx pstun.cxx Have the macro '#define P_FORCE_STATIC_PLUGIN', the VS compiler outputs: 1>..\..\ptclib\{one of above} : warning C4603: 'P_FORCE_STATIC_PLUGIN' : macro is not defined or definition is different after precompiled header use 1> Add macro to precompiled header instead of defining here 1> ..\..\ptclib\{one of above} : use of precompiled header But the <ptlib/pluginmgr.h> includes <ptlib/plugin.h>, the later already define 'P_FORCE_STATIC_PLUGIN' when compiling under _WIN32. So remove or comment the #define P_FORCE_STATIC_PLUGIN from: vsdl.cxx pvfiledev.cxx pstun.cxx //============================ sockets.cxx The '#include <ptlib.h>' is the pre-compiled header and MUST come 1st so, changing '#include <ptlib.h>' to come before '#ifdef __NUCLEUS_PLUS__' >>>before: #ifdef __NUCLEUS_PLUS__ #include <ConfigurationClass.h> #endif #include <ptlib.h> >>>after: #include <ptlib.h> #ifdef __NUCLEUS_PLUS__ #include <ConfigurationClass.h> #endif //============================ Error: sphelper.h(1170) GetUserDefaultUILanguage(): identifier not found Configure is using c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.0a\ for Located Speech API compile without speech support. -- ----- Jogue RPG, alimente o lado criativo!

Registering with the GnuGK - continued

Hard coding the authenticator.Enable (as shown bellow) solves the registration problem. Obviously this is not good - any ideas why authenticator.IsCapability returns the wrong result in the "simple" sample application ? BOOL H323Gatekeeper::OnReceiveGatekeeperConfirm(const H225_GatekeeperConfirm & gcf) { if (!H225_RAS::OnReceiveGatekeeperConfirm(gcf)) return FALSE; PINDEX i; for (i = 0; i < authenticators.GetSize(); i++) { H235Authenticator & authenticator = authenticators[i]; if (authenticator.UseGkAndEpIdentifiers()) authenticator.SetRemoteId(gatekeeperIdentifier); } if (gcf.HasOptionalField(H225_GatekeeperConfirm::e_authenticationMode) && gcf.HasOptionalField(H225_GatekeeperConfirm::e_algorithmOID)) { for (i = 0; i < authenticators.GetSize(); i++) { H235Authenticator & authenticator = authenticators[i]; authenticator.Enable( TRUE /*authenticator.IsCapability(gcf.m_authenticationMode, // <<<< This makes it work gcf.m_algorithmOID)*/); PTRACE(4,"RAS\tAuthenticator " << authenticator.GetName() << (authenticator.IsActive() ? " ACTIVATED" : " disabled")); } }

Re: [h323plus] Multicast

Thanks for your input Marcos. I have already looked at OpenMCU but it seems to be too different from what is required for a decentralised conference. As I recall, the signalling involved in OpenMCU is the default behaviour of the base classes for the most part. It wasn't clear to me how to change the signalling to identify distributed multicast but I'm still researching this. But the biggest question I have is how difficult it will be to add multicast capability to the library. Is it as simple as joining a multicast group if the network address is a multicast address and having everything else basically just work (same code to send/receive on an established multicast socket as for a UDP unicast socket) or is there more to it than that... maybe some additional management associated with H.323/H.245/H225.0/???? under this circumstance? So nobody else can provide any pointers/opinions? Troy.

Has anyone ever managed to register with the GNU Gatekeeper using the "simple" sample application ? Whichever method I try, I get a SecurityDenial from the Gatekeeper Will appreciate any help on this -Amnon

Multicast
by Junk-Mail Wastebasket 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

Greetings H323Plus devs. I have need of an ability to support a conference where each end-point can/will manipulate the audio stream coming from every other end-point based on some data associated with each end-point. To me, it seems like each end-point should multicast the audio stream and possibly the data that each other end-point will use to modify the audio stream. Each end-point should listen for multicasts associated with the conference and modify and mix the streams as required based on the data. From my internet searches, this seems to be more or less the classic decentralised/distributed multipoint conference. I have attempted to search the mailing list archives and code for how to do this with H323 Plus and have found that the capability appears to be lacking. Although I am willing to work on developing this capability, I am far from expert on H323 (Plus or otherwise) or VoIP and would need some strong pointers from those of you who are expert. I would appreciate some input on how best to proceed to get the functionality for which I'm looking. Your suggestions would be most welcome, Troy.

Bitrate Fluctuations
by Adrien Rudulier 19 Aug '08

19 Aug '08

When I am connected to OpenMCU using PVX, I notice that the bitrate coming from OpenMCU varies quite a bit. I have the bitrate set to 1920 Mbps but actual call rate is 1856 and the actual bitrate bounces sporadically never hitting the maximum bitrate consistently. Sometimes it goes above the call rate and then back down. Is this something that H323+ handles or is this handled by the codec? __________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Shutting down a call manually in OpenMCU
by Adrien Rudulier 06 Aug '08

06 Aug '08

I am trying to manually remove members from a conference from the status web page but I am having troubles closing down the connection properly. I have access to the conference manager and the conference connection. When I call H323Connection::ClearCall(), it severs the connection to the endpoint and the member is removed after ConferenceManager::RemoveMember is called but there is a segmentation fault because the logical channel threads are still running. I keep getting the following assertion failure: 2008/08/06 15:26:39.089 HTTP Service:0xb50f9b90 Message Assertion fail: Transport thread did not terminate, file transports.cxx, line 1355, Error=107 I was wondering if anyone knows how to close down a call properly. __________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Noticeable Audio Delay
by Adrien Rudulier 29 Jul '08

29 Jul '08

When I connect to OpenMCU, there is a noticeable audio delay of about 1 second after the video. I was wondering if either OpenMCU or H323plus have a syncronization mechanism. __________________________________________________________________ Instant Messaging, free SMS, sharing photos and more...
