Some problems with VM?

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Okay, there appears to be a problem with what the vm code understands
and perhaps with what the latest ROM version of the 1496 is capable of... ?


/usr/local/bin/pvftormd: Unsupported sample speed (11025)
/usr/local/bin/pvftormd: The ZyXEL 1496 only supports 9600 samples per second

vm.log has this:

01/03 22:25:32  opening voice modem device
01/03 22:25:32  opened voice modem device /dev/cuaa0
01/03 22:25:32  reading port cuaa0 configuration from config file
/usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/voice.conf
01/03 22:25:32  detecting voice modem type
01/03 22:25:32  ZyXEL 1496 detected
01/03 22:25:33  ROM release 6.19 detected
01/03 22:25:33  initializing ZyXEL 1496 voice modem
01/03 22:25:35  playing voice file file.rmd
01/03 22:25:35  vm: Wrong modem type found

Not sure what "Wrong modem type found" is trying to say here.

I guess I'm a bit confused.  I had been told that the 1496 was the best for
voice operations, but
here I am seeing that the 2864 is newer and supports the newer compression
algorithms.

Back when I had my first "digital answering machine" on an AT&T 3B1, I had
much better
luck with these things and the sound files that resulted sounded very nice.
 So, I'm
wondering just what I'm missing here :)
