As far as I know there is no code patch to be applied. The question comes basically when the recordings go off the PSTN. In the uncompressed WAV format, the audio is downshifted for playback. This means it is played at the same volume as any of the compressed formats. The question then I guess is maybe we need to be able to specify a gain setting and deal with it before we route the audio to the audio writers. But then again, my memory about the internals is fuzzy and not up to date right now as to whether that is doable. Maybe the gain setting in the uncompressed wav format should be removed. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
