Hi,

I got the following problem with speex. Could you please help me to resolve the  following issue.

Description: I am taking speech input from MIC storing in a buffer after that i will encode by using speex then decoding and sending to output(speakers).
it is small demo project of speech encoding/decoding in VC++.

I am reading the data from buffer in the following way where data is short[] type and buffer is char[].

        for(int j=0;j < 160;j++)
             data[j]= (buffer[i+j]<<8)^0x8000;


        speex_encode_int(state, data, &bits);
          nbBytes = speex_bits_write(&bits, cbits, 200);

            outbuffer[k]= (char) nbBytes;  // Storing length of encoded data first in outbuffer

            int writ= k+nbBytes,m=0;

         for(k=k+1;k<= writ; k++)        // storing the encoded data in outbuffer
                   outbuffer[k]= cbits[m++];


 I am repeatedly doing until the input buffer is over. The encoded data is storing in outbuffer[].

In decoding:

I am reading first byte stored in size variable then reading the data.
            
            psize = buffer[i];     //size of the encoded data frame
        
         j=0;
         for(int k=i+1; k <= i+psize;k++)
                 cbits[j++]= buffer[k];           //Reading encoded data

     speex_bits_read_from(&bits, cbits, psize);

         /*Decode the frame*/
          speex_decode_int(state, &bits, data);

         for(k=0;k< 160; k++)
              outbuffer[m++]= data[k];    //Storing the decoded frame in char outbuffer[]

After completion of all encoded data. If i play the outbuffer
i am getting full noise. I am hearing voice with very low sound, noise is dominating the speech.
I didn't talk also i am hearing lot of noise from speakers after decoding.  I used following preprocess functions also but no use.
int noise_sup=2; // from 2 to 40 and -ve numbers also no use
speex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess_state,SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_NOISE_SUPPRESS, &noise_sup);
int noise= 1;
speex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess_state,SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_NOISE_SUPPRESS, &noise);
int denoise=1;
speex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess_state, SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_DENOISE, &denoise);
int agc=1;
speex_preprocess_ctl(preprocess_state,SPEEX_PREPROCESS_SET_AGC,&agc);
speex_preprocess_run(preprocess_state,data);
           
Please help me. 


Thanks & regards,
Vijender
