[GnomeMeeting-list] speex codecs and netmeeting

[Stephan Bourgeois <strangelv lycos co uk>]

Hi everybody,
I am trying to find out why I can't get sound between Ekiga and 
Netmeeting with the speex codecs. I have installed the ACM speex codecs 
in Netmeeting from http://www.republika.pl/roed/speexw/ as I cannot get 
to the www.openacm.org website.

I have read 2 warnings about this:
1. on the www.republika.pl website: this version of ACM speex codecs is 
*not compatible* with the codecs from http://www.openacm.org
2. on the speex-dev list: "This is due to the fact that Netmeeting uses 
a custom RTP encapsulation if using third party codecs (like Speex is to 
Netmeeting)." Read the full post on 
http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2004-March/002307.html

What do you guys know about this? I can run ekiga -d 3 and I have 
recently learnt to trace H.323 calls with Ethereal, please tell me if 
you want more information. Btw, I am doing these tests on a LAN, and I 
get sound with the PCM codecs, so this is not a firewall / NAT issue.
Yours,
Stephan.
