Re: [asterisk-users] Maximum retries exceeded on transmission
I've encountered a similar problem with Cisco equipment. The Cisco proxy was not replying to Asterisk with an ACK after * sent an OK. Since version 1.2.14, * was changed so that not receiving an ACK to an OK is considered a FATAL error. The specific change that causes this problem is in sip_answer() in chan_sip.c: res = transmit_response_with_sdp(p, 200 OK, p-initreq, 2); Changing the 2 to a 1 will probably fix it. Note that this is NOT a bug in * but improper implementations--either caused by latency, or a software bug (not sending an ACK). Perhaps it might be beneficial to have an option in sip.conf to change how * handles not receiving an ACK? I know... it's someone else's problem, but might help those of us stuck with buggy implementations in production environments. :) Brian.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Predictive Dialers
On 9-Jul-04, at 3:29 PM, mattf wrote: Golly, are you thinking about building a predictive dialer with Asterisk? Detecting voicemail and answering machines over 50% of the time is pretty darn tough, and the way that several commercial churn-dialing systems do it is to detect silence or other typical audio patterns (like clicks or quite static) by analyzeing tiny samples(recordings) of the first couple seconds of the phone call(this is one of the reasons we usually hear a couple-second-long quiet pause before a telemarketer comes on the line). This kind of signal processing is very processor intensive for a predictive dialer system and usually occurs through a dedicated DSP on the board(like on a Dialog board) like the kind that us Asterisk users don't have to work with. This makes TRUE predictive dialing on a large scale(more than 6 agents per server) very difficult on an Asterisk system(many say GOOD to this). Thanks for the info Matt. This was exactly what I wanted. :) I am looking at the possibility of developing some type of predictive dialing system, or customize a pre-existing solution. I might try doing some experiments designing an audio processor to detect silence at the beginning of a call. We'll see what I can come up with. Brian. There are a couple dialer projects going on right now with Asterisk that have released code: - Shady-dial (http://shadydial.sourceforge.net/) Lead by some nice Europeans, they have a beta of it up and running supposedly handling up to 10 agents per server, although I'm not sure of exactly what level of 'Predictive' the dialer is(whether it detects voicemail/answering machines and such). This dialer alters the code of Asterisk and is dependant upon PostgreSQL as a database backend. There is some documentation on installation and usage and it is released mostly under the GPL. This dialer does not restrict what kind of phones you can use with it(I'd love to hear more from them or people using this system on the specifics of their project) - VICIDIAL (http://astguiclient.sf.net/) Lead by my company, we are currently developing our 6th production release of a one-call-at-a-time dialer(this is NOT predictive). We have placed over one million calls through this system in the last 12 months mostly to the UK and Australia. It has complete installation instructions, full web-based administration as well as a cross-platform GUI client. It is mostly written in perl, runs on top of an unaltered Asterisk codebase, is dependant on a MySQL as it's backend database and is released under the GPL. If you use this you are limited to SIP clients and Zaptel channels. There are currently 6 companies that are using this system in production envoronments that I know about.(I'd love to hear from other companies using this system too.)
