I'm sorry if this message is slightly off topic, but I'd like to know
an opinion from the speech compression experts reading this list.<br><br>
I'm using spheex to encode human voices at about 15kbps, with very good
results. I was wondering if this is the best situation for my setup
where I have all the voice pre compressed (not in real time) by very
powerful servers with (near) unlimited processing time and
computational resources and a client relatively slow (ARM4 processor at
about 70MHz). The encoding phase time lenght is not important, I can let it run even for days if it helps compressing the output. The client decodes the data from a static file. My hope
was to obtain something of the same quality I'm getting with at 15kbps
with a lower bitrate, using more computational time and power on the
encoding phase. The audio source are very clean and very high quality.<br><br>Any hint?<br><br>Thank you in advance,<br><br>Andrea<br><br><br>P.S.<br>Jean-Marc, I can never say thank you enough for this wonderful software
