Seren -- New CLI voice chat application (AUR)
Hi there!
I'm posting this message hoping to reach for all the users that prefer to work
from the terminal and appreciate simple, light and open programs.
I want to recommend an application that I've been using for some months now
and have some feedback from the community if possible. The application is called
Seren, and it is basically a small VoIP program that allows you to setup a voice
conference (with up to 10 people) from the terminal using a basic ncurses interface.
The project is quite new but I have to say that the audio quality is excellent
thanks to the Opus codec, there is basic support for sending text messages and
the whole traffic in encrypted to protect your privacy.
You can find more information about Seren, as well as the source code, in its
official webpage:
http://holdenc.altervista.org/seren/
Just yesterday the latest version was released
I've also created an AUR for Seren, here it is:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/seren/
Let me know what you think if you decide to give it a go!
For everything, be free to ask directly to #seren on irc.freenode.net, the seren community will be happy to answer!

Hey I'm looking for a specific voice chat application. I would like an app that would allow multiple users to join a chat room and talk via voice with each other on the iphone. I would like this app to also allow users on a PC to join into this voice chat with iphone users. I would also like to make the chat room private so only certain users can join the chat room. Is there an existing application that accomplishes this? I have searched around the internet and haven't found anything yet. Thanks.

Need help creating a voice chat application with java
Hi, all:
I'm currently using MSN messenger to talk to my friends online. However, the quality gets pretty low sometimes since MSN is a centralized service. So I was wondering if I know a friend well, and he gives me his IP, would it be better for me to just write a simple java app that captures audio from a microphone and send it over through a socket. Once the byte stream gets there, his side of the app can play it back. Of course, the packets I'm sending and receiving will just be normal TCP/IP packets, but we wouldn't have to go through a MSN messenger server, so would the audio quality be better in this case?Maybe, but there is probibly other software you can use for direct connections. I would try these first.

Multicast Voice Chat - Best Way To Handle (Multicast /w more than one broadcaster)
Hello. Currently I am working on a multicast voice chat application. I am a bit new to the multicast scene and I could really use some help with how to go about the next stage of coding.
The plan is to make an application that allows 5 (expandable later) users to connect to each other through stratus and communicate using voice chat streams. Right now, I have been able to accomplish a typical broadcaster to receiver application, but I am not sure what the best way to go about adding multiple broadcasters is.
I can currently see two real choices. Assign each member in the group a number (or use the ID's) and then create an additional receiving stream for each member that connects, or create 5 differen't group specifiers basically making 5 different instances of the application with one broadcaster and 4 receivers.
If anyone can help me think of a better way, that would be great.
Also, is there a way to find out the total number of users in a group or to access their ID's?
Thanks.Take a look at the 3 packages that start with "java.util.concurrent", and the methods of java.util.Collections that start "synchronized. . ." and you can probably find something that will work for your situation.

When i am sending voice from my server machine, and receiving on someother machine by application, its working fine.
But if i am using my applet from some other machine(Other then server) its creating problems. Its showing some errors.
Can you suggest some solutions??
Thanks in advance.

Dear Friends,
We are facing some problem in Voice Chat Application .
Kindly please send the code for this to the below ID,
[email protected]
Thanks in Advance.
With Regards,
Sarah Stepenson.The sender part runs ok, but the receiver freezes at the line: audioPlayer = Manager.createRealizedPlayer(url);The problem maybe because you are using same urls in Sender as well as Receiver.
Note:
Let:- address of sender = 192.168.1.100
& address of receiver = 192.168.1.101
Then:- in Sender class you use receiver's address i.e. rtp://192.168.1.101:22224/audio
and in Receiver class you use sender's address i.e. rtp://192.168.1.100:22224/audio
Thanks! -
Can i get help on how I can successfully install the new google voice video chat software. I keep having an install error. My google voice phone always worked until a week ago when suddenly google would not let me call out from any browser until I installed their new google voice and video chat (made by vidyo) software. I was told by genius bar to install Yosemite, which I did. But that did not solve the problem. I removed macKeeper, as well, since a techie friend told me that could be the cause. Nothing so far has worked. When the problem first happened, it seemed to only happen in Chrome. Google voice calling out worked fine in safari, for about a day or so. Now I cannot call out from any browser. I can, however receive calls, and make calls within the video hangout.
I can be contacted directly if questions at gary at couplewise dot followed by the usual extensinYou can only suspend service for 3 months at a time (with or without payment) and only twice a year.

USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat
=USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat?Windows 7, X-fi Fatalty Pro
I have a webcam with ?a built in microphone (Ps3 eye). ?It is connected by USB. ?The drivers are the CL-Eye drivers; a third party driver set since Sony does not directly support the eye for PC.
in the windows audio device management, the microphone appears as normal and is set as the default device. ?I can use the windows sound recorder to record me speaking just fine. ?However if I use any other applications it doesn't seem to work at all. ?I can select the device as the default recording device in Starcraft 2 as well as Teamspeak 3 but no sound is detected. ?The USB microphone does not show up as a selectable device in recording options in my Creative Control Panel. ?Disabling the default creative microphone does nothing.
I think the problem is in that windows can directly detect the microphone and so software that uses the windows audio device manager works fine, but anything that talks directly with my sound card software does not properly detect the microphone. ?Basically, I can select the device as a default device but it does not work.
Any thoughts on this or am I SOL and have to find myself a shiny new headset?I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.
In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.
Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;
Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.
The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.
Hope that helps. -
How to Voice Chat on Google Talk with IChat
I am a new mac user, started using just yesterday. I need some help to configure my IChat for Google talk. I managed to configure ichat to do normal text chat thru the settings in google's website. but i am unable to do voice chat. i need help coz google talk is one application that i use extensively..
Gizmo (http://www.gizmoproject.com) allows you to by using a proxy to convert SIP to Jingle. It also does the same thing for Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live/MSN Messenger users. I've no idea how well it works though.
We'll have to wait until Leopard's released before we know whether Apple has added Jingle support to iChat. If they have you'll be able to do audio (and possibly video) with Gtalk users natively. I wouldn't count on Apple doing this though. -
Voice chat with psi -- Google chat
Hello all,
I have been trying to find a linux IM app that can use voice chat with Google Talk. As far as I can tell, psi is supposed to support this.
I tried version 0.11 from pacman, which connects and everything but there does not seem to be any voice chat.
I used the AUR package and compiled the latest svn version, 0.12rc3 and it works ok, but I still can't find anything within the program to do with voice chatting.
I have been all over the psi wiki etc., and it all seems to suggest that voice chat is included and is working with google chat, but I sure can't find it. Some info dates back to late 2005 with the libjingle branch, but I believe libjingle is now in the main program.
Can someone tell me if voice chat is included in psi, and if so maybe a hint on what might be going wrong for me.
Cheers,
WittfellaI have been banging my head agaist this and am slowly getting somewhere now...
Psi does come with jingle, but its not enabled by default, because its still deemed 'experimental'.
To get the psi-svn AUR package to compile with voice chat support you have to do a number of things:
1. Use the 'configure-jingle' with '--enable-jingle' option instead of the regular 'configure' script.
./configure-jingle --prefix=/usr --enable-jingle
You can either modify the PKGBUILD or do it all manually.
2. You have to have a specific version of ortp installed otherwise it will not compile. This happens to be ortp-0.7.1 but our pacman version is up to 0.14.0 or so. Luckily you can find the sources for ortp-0.7.1 and it compiles and installs fine.
3. Now the biggest problem. When you try to compile you will get gazillions of errors. It turns out they are quite simple, and are caused by the incompatability problem with gcc-4.3. Most of the errors are solved by opening the offending header file and inserting.
#include <cstring>
So after all that, the good news is I have managed to create a working copy of psi with voice support, however:-
psi <--> google talk connects but there is no audio from either end
psi <--> psi voice chat seems to work fine
If anyone is interested I created packages for psi and ortp. Let me know if you have any more success with google talk.
psi-jingle-1166-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
ortp-0.7.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
