[speex-dev] embed speex into speak freely?

[Dave Marti]

Speak Freely supports 16-bit full duplex and has come a long way.
It supports RTP and VAT protocols and its own proprietary protocol.
It seems to work as good or better than Microsoft netmeeting.
And I dont have a complicated firewall setup to use it.

LinPhone is not ported to win32 as far as I can tell.
And I need a windows solution for talking to a majority of
the people I know.

H323 may be a standard, but its firewall requirements make it very useless
to most.  I have never worked for a company willing to open up practically
all
incoming UDP ports of their firewall.  And I am also not willing to open so
many ports
incoming at home either.  Nor do I need/want to install a separate machine
to act as a gateway for
H323.

My main purpose for posting to the group was to see if anyone was working on
or
willing to put Speex into a windows internet phone application.
Apparently, I am the only
person interested?

I really like the sound quality of speex wideband.  I'd like to see all
internet voice applications
support it.
