FreeSWITCH

This week there was an improvement to mod_spandsp with a channel variable added to make spandsp_start_tone_detect easier to use from the dialplan or embedded scripts

Join us Wednesdays at 12:00 CT for some more FreeSWITCH fun! And, head over to freeswitch.com to learn more about FreeSWITCH support.

New features that were added:

• FS-9287 [mod_spandsp] Add channel variable to make spandsp_start_tone_detect easier to use from dialplan/embedded scripts.

The following bugs were squashed:

• FS-9283 [mod_hiredis] Fixed an issue with using hiredis_raw on channels without media such as an originate
• FS-9292 [core] Fixed a core dump while playing videos or showing images usually with a high number of callers
• FS-9296 [mod_httapi] Fixed video support
• FS-9297 [mod_sofia] Fixed multiple crashes from passing invalid null values in sofia.conf

This week we had a new feature in mod_sofia. A new parameter was added, renegotiate-codec-on-hold, for proxy hold when proxy media and proxy mode are disabled; its similar to proxy-refer.

Join us Wednesdays at 12:00 CT for some more FreeSWITCH fun! And, head over to freeswitch.com to learn more about FreeSWITCH support.

New features that were added:

• FS-9192 [mod_sofia] Added renegotiate-codec-on-hold parameter for proxy hold when proxy media and proxy mode are disabled; its similar to proxy-refer

Improvements in build system, cross platform support, and packaging:

• FS-9263 [build] Attempting to find the proper lua5.2 version on openbsd
• FS-9260 [build] Fixed make detection to not fail on openbsed,  fixed libtoolize detection to attempt to find libtoolize the same version as specified libtool, and added -ltermcap for openbsd so it can correctly link to libedit

The following bugs were squashed:

• FS-9244 [core] Fixed debug lines
• FS-9265 [core] Fixed an issue with receiving INCOMPATIBLE_DESTINATION when there is no RTCP
• FS-9271 [mod_conference] Fixed a segfault trying to record a canvas that does not exist
• FS-9267 [mod_cv] Fixed an issue where the VPX codec returns the same image to the core when doing repeated decoding. Updates to that image match the updates to the stream so if a media bug modifies the image between key frames it messes up the picture until the next key frame is received.

Bridging in Asterisk 13:
Over the past several years, major architectural changes have been
done in the core of Asterisk to facilitate better APIs and
functionality. Matt Jordan will talk about one of these core
improvements, the Bridging Framework, and how it evolved during the
development of Asterisk 13.

The FreeSWITCH 1.6.8 release is here!

With the release of FreeSWITCH 1.6.8 we see some major improvements in the .deb based packaging. Included in this release is a fix for the freeswitch-all package. Prior to this fix, if certain FreeSWITCH Extensions were not included in the -all package, and a user attempted to install that extension via its stand-alone freeswitch-mod-extension-name package, it was possible to leave the system in a broken state. This fix does make a substantial change to the freeswitch-all package and the number of dependencies included via this package. Due to this change, a bare “apt-get upgrade” will not upgrade the package automatically and you will need to either call ‘apt-get dist-upgrade’ or call ‘apt-get upgrade freeswitch-all’ explicitly. This also brings the freeswitch-all package in line with the freeswitch-meta-all package.

Additionally with these packaging changes, Packages are now available for Ubuntu 14.04. Please see https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Ubuntu+14.04+Trusty for Ubuntu installation instructions.

This is also a routine maintenance release. Change Log and source tarball information below.
