<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>For a new project, I
intend to use the speex processor, without the codec.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>The client would
like to have VAD.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>So I tested the
latest VAD, and as the comment suggests, it's pretty bad.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>It does not perform
better than an RMS detector on (signal - noise).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>I remember people
saying the VAD of version 1.1 was good.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>What can I expect
from it ?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>Was it able
to detect only voice ? at least don't detect very short noises
?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>What about the VAD
of the coder ?</FONT></SPAN></DIV></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=956452412-07102009><FONT face=Arial size=2>Did someone attempt
to port the VAD from version 1.1 into 1.2 ? Do you think it's do-able
?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
