Hi,

I have currently a few ideas spinning around my head
involving Python/Twisted and VoIP and thought I give
shtoom a try to get some things clearer.

I made a pretty standard netinstall of Debian sarge
and apt-ed asterisk-1.0.7. Got that up and running
with dialin and out plus three X-Lite phones working.

Now I wanted to connect shtoom to this and checked
out the current trunk - shtoominfo below.

1) when calling an extension unavailable I'm getting
   the voicemail hello audio completly disturbed. Like a
   cat /dev/urandom > /dev/audio  ;-)
   2005-07-03T14:58:49.583568 [shtoom.rtp.protocol.RTPProtocol (UDP)]
   ALSA overrun
   you get a lot of these if you listen longer
   --> 1.log

2) when calling an available extension it is ringing there,
   but we have some authorization problem and an exception.
   --> 2.log
   The reason for the authorization I don't understand.
   Why is there a Reinvitation?

3) when getting called there is an exception:
   exceptions.AssertionError: close device ALSAAudioDevice
   open before calling selectDefaultFormat()
   --> 3.log

4) putting nat=none and stun_policy=never in the [network]
   context isn't honored. I had to change this in the source.

Perhaps I'm missing something, and the audio problems
are the result of some other (configuration) errors.
(With madplay/mpg321/xmms/mplayer audio is working fine.)
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Btw. I checked it with python2.4 too, with only
minor differences in the results.

And, any hint on how to get an rtp audio stream into
shtoom as audio in (or directly into *) and audio out
via TCP too would be great!  ;-)
What's the intention behind tcpaudio.py?
