OpenMCU shutting down unexpectedly

02 Jun '09

Hello, I have OpenMCU compiled/installed from the latest cvs. When I get a third client connected, OpenMCU shuts down unexpectedly. It appears to get a shutdown signal from somewhere. I have attached an strace. Let me know if more info is needed. Also, in pursuing more info about this, I tried compiling OpenMCU with the debug option and got: ]# make debug make DEBUG=1 default_target make[1]: Entering directory `/root/openmcu-v2_2_4-src/applications/openmcu' g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c main.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/main.o g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c video.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/video.o video.cxx: In member function ‘PBoolean MCUSimpleVideoMixer::ReadSrcFrame(VideoFrameStoreList&, void*, int, int, PINDEX&)’: video.cxx:953: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions video.cxx:953: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c conference.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/conference.o g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c filemembers.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/filemembers.o g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c custom.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/custom.o g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c h323.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/h323.o h323.cxx: In member function ‘virtual PBoolean OpenMCUH323Connection::OnIncomingAudio(const void*, PINDEX)’: h323.cxx:926: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type g++ -I/root/pwlib/include -DPTRACING=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/kerberos/include -fno-exceptions -Wall -g3 -ggdb -O0 -D_DEBUG -DPTRACING -I/root/h323plus/include -felide-constructors -Wreorder -c mcu.cxx -o obj_linux_x86_d/mcu.o make -C /root/pwlib/src/ptlib/unix debug make[2]: Entering directory `/root/ptlib-2.6.2/src/ptlib/unix' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `debug'.

Leandro, Thanks! that resolved the problem with the certificate. And setting the PTLIBPLUGINDIR solved the video problem! I'm so close! But now it's not registering with GNU Gatekeeper. I think it's a password problem. I can see how to 'add' a password with addpasswd but addpasswd is giving me a floating point error. I'm compiling gnugk 2.2.8 now. And I'll let you know what happens. Thanks much for your help.

I have already used PVX 8 and some videconference endpoints from different brands/types. I've seen that it is possible to force openMCU to use 4CIF resolution by modifying the framesize parameter in mcu.cxx. So, I forced the value to 4cifMPI. However, when I start the connection, it shows me a "green - all messed up image" and when I try to connect two clients to the same MCU room the process exits display this error message: "Segmentation fault" When I change this setting to use cifMPI resolution only, it runs fine. Is there a patch to solve this problem? Can someone help me? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Leandro

Greg, I've copied the H323 Plus mailing list. I suspect somebody on there, either the H323 Plus or Opal team members, will be able to address your question.

Hi All, I would like to know the difference between FACILITY and EMPTY message. While doing TUNNELING I am getting OLC body through EMPTY header(H225). Can I use FACILITY method instead of EMPTY. Thanks, Prashant "Save Tree Save Humanity"

Cannot set codec video mode
by Zack Tidwell 24 Apr '09

24 Apr '09

Hello, I have video call application using h323plus v 1.20.1 and PTLIB v 2.0.1. I am using the Vic H.261 codec V 1.20.0. I am trying to set the codec video mode to either AdaptivePacketDelay or DynamicVideoQuality in the OpenVideoChannel callback when isEncoding is true. However, after I set it, codec.GetVideoMode always returns 0. Furthermore, as far as I can tell, I am unable to set any other codec options, such as max bitrate, TxQualityLevel, or TargetFrameTimeMS. This is the same place I was calling SetVideoMode back when the application used OpenH323. Furthermore, it is the same place these functions are called in the myphone2 application. I have tried using the ffmpeg h.263 codec to the same effect. I have also tried using the latest version from CVS, which didn't help. Can someone give me a hint as to why this is not working? -Zack
