OK, that's good information in the right direction, but then what should be

voicemail recordings?  Is there a code patch to apply somewhere?


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.

It seems to me that the uncompressed file has it right here - if I playback the uncompressed file from winamp it is just a little low, but in the ballpark. If I do the same for the compressed files it is very low. I would think the goal would be for the volume in all of the files to be playable without cranking up the volume.

But something about all of this seems a little odd to me since I'm new
to Asterisk and I would assume if this is the cause that it would have
been brought up and solved a long time ago.

So I ask again - when live conversation is generally at a decent volume
is it common for voicemail recorded messages to be low(er) volume?  When
other users have Asterisk email the recording do they generally have to
raise the volume controls on their computers to hear it?

Thanks
Steve
