Hi all, I am not sure if tis is a bug but.. Was learning about VM etc to see how it all worked, and I noticed the following..
In the default install, the VM system leaves 3 different copies of the Voice message. Size filename 13kb Msg0000.gsm 13kb Msg0000.wav 122kb Msg0000.WAV <- under UNIX we have case sensitive file names of course. I wanted to have a look at these files so loaded them into SOUND FORGE 6. This first thing I noticed was that the LARGER file is of much HIGHER volume. Like it had been normalised to 100% The smaller was file, when loaded into sound forge, did not load properly, only the first 2 seconds loads. Can anyone explain these issues and why they exist? All in all, I was wondering what would be the best format for best quality but with still great compression. I want to archive all calls for a period of time with self expire. (For example dedicate 5 gig disk space to the last number of calls that can fit in the 5gig.) I want to store the best quality possible but also make best use of disk space, so I can store for even longer periods. I was considering ogg but then is occurred to me that GSM or other codecs designed for audio with this frequency response may be better. (But the GSM file above is not as clear as the WAV ones produced.) I was also wondering if the VM system when emailing the audio can be setup to use something like ogg or MP3?
