[Speex-dev] Proposed AGC additions

Steve,

You're right.  The AGC gain does not max out when using VAD
(via the preprocessor).  So instead of not transmitting when
the AGC max gain is reached, I now do this instead:

Start the call with VAD enabled and AGC disabled.  When speech
is detected, disable VAD (if 100% continuous transmission is
desired for the call) and enable AGC.  This seems to be working
reliably so far.

However, I forgot to mention before another reason why it's
good to be able to set the max AGC gain.  One of my users
reminded me of it tonight: he wanted to be able to limit the
max AGC gain so that when he's not speaking, the AGC doesn't
pick up on other sounds from the room.

Tom
