Re: [h323plus] OpenMCU Virtual Machine working out-of-the-box
Hi All.
Here's my 5c worth.
I used Clonezilla to make a clone of the OpenMCU.ru virtual machine and then restored it onto a physical server.
This proved to be better than running it virtually (I guess physical resources gave it more oomph).
I was able to get video mixing to work ok, even up to 4CIF, but audio was was always broken.
I remember having to delete their compiled version of G.722 to make it fall back to G.711, but that was also broken.
I was using a combination of Radvision, Aethra, Polycom PVX and Spranto for the tests.
I'd say look at their audio codecs for issues. I am sure it will work 100% with some dedication.
I gave up after a while, I was seeing Russian code in my dreams ....and I am English speaking...
Hope this helps in some way.
Mike

Hi,
I ran the virtual machine using KVM and had to twiddle with the network config a bit to get it going within my local network, but their version of OpenMCU seems to be quite a bit improved indeed.
Its pretty picky about codecs, but I did get a 2 party conference with 2 Spranto clients going using H.263 in 4CIF. Its actually the first time I ever got OpenMCU to mix video for me. Kudos!
Do we have anybody on the list who speaks Russian and can get us in contact with the programmers ? I think it would be great if we could get their changes into the H323Plus CVS. The source is included in the torrent, but I think it would be best to talk with them first.
Regards, Jan

I sucessfully tested video-conference features with Ekiga and NetMeeting
software clients.
Can anyone test this with real endpoint cameras ? The zip file with the virtual machine is availble on this torrent.

Would be great if we could merge the openmcu.ru and openmcu forces to develop a better software. :)
