Re: [Ekiga-devel-list] Ekiga-windows sound fails and is replaced by brp brp brp sound

[Dieter Rogiest <dieter rogiest telenet be>]

I changed the audio codec from SPEEX to PCMU but the sound still fails after a 
few minutes to a "brp brp brp..." sound.
I ran "ekiga.exe -d 5 1>x 2>x" on my sister's computer:
the only thing I can notice is that jitter buffer packets are thrown away. I 
think this is when the "brp brp brp" sound starts:
see extract from stderr.txt in attachment.

I increased the jitter buffer to 1000 ms (maximum) but the "brp brp brp" sound 
still appears.
Is there too much packet loss of the audio stream? Is it a bad internet 
connection (My computer in Belgium, my sister's in Spain)? But the video 
keeps playing fine. 
Is the audio packet loss happening on my computer or on my sister's computer?

I'll ask my next question on the users mailing list.

Regards,

Dieter
