WhoDo,

You will find Psip 0.10 is a much better fit for small screens such as the EEEPC.

I can change the Reload to Refresh easy enough.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to delete a buddy from the list but it is easy to remove it from the config file. Maybe I can include it in the help file.

Peppyy. We are working on a way to display names instead of addresses via a look up list.

I wrote the help file using OO Write rather than Abiword. Abiword seems to have problems with reading the format. I have also tried saving the Help Doc in HTML format from OO Write and it's not great. I think the best solution will be to save it in PDF format and then it will be useful if people want to download it too.

Apparently the forums don't allow PDF files. I will send it to Lobster and he will make it available. Thanks Lob.

Yes, it is Psip 0.10 that I'm working from. It's fine until you change the icon set. Then you could lose the relationship between the buttons and the buddy list, especially if you're like me and need BIG icons. :D

I'm suggesting the buddy list still remain integrated but able to be docked or slid away behind after use, that's all.

Codecs

#83 Post by gazb »

Below is a quote from the gizmo project about codecs used.
Its a good idea to check which codec you are using during a call ,by clicking on debug in psip then click on Start Call Quality...the 4th line down in the terminal displays codec used. DURING A CALL ONLY!

What Codecs does Gizmo Project use?
Solution Gizmo Project uses the following codecs:

GSM -- fixed bit rate, not loss tolerant, narrow band (8khz sampling rate).
iSAC -- variable bit rate, loss tolerant, narrow and wideband (8 to 16khz). Varies based on Bandwidth, packet loss, delay
iLBC -- variable bit rate, loss tolerant, narrow
PCMA -- fixed bit rate (8kHz sampling rate)
PCMU -- fixed bit rate (8kHz sampling rate, high band width)
IPCMWB -- 16 kHz sampling rate
EG711 (enhanced g711) -- fixed bit rate, loss tolerant, narrowband
iPCM -- fixed bit rate, loss tolerant, wide band.

When a VoIP call is established, you will need to use a codec that both parties and the provider support.

Thanks Evil.

There are a number of typo's in the document but it was pretty late when I was constructing it.

I will make the changes when I get some time and upload it again.

Some great ideas here and good work on the documentation.
I'm not going to have time to work on this properly until the end of August. I might get involved in show stopping bugs but the main problems I anticipate are to do with audio and really I don't know much about it.

So, if anybody wants to take over and implement some of these great ideas that would be super.

I did experiment the other evening with trying to overide the gtk-theme icons to provide icons for buddy status. This would look nice and reduce the width of the buddy table. I could overide the icons for a tree with a static declaration such as

Code: Select all

<tree rules_hint="true" exported_column="1">
      <height>250</height><width>250</width>
      <label>Stock ID</label>
        <item stock="gtk-media-forward">forward</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-next">next</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-pause">pause</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-play">play</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-previous">previous</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-record">record</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-rewind">rewind</item>
        <item stock="gtk-media-stop">stop</item>
    </tree>
but not for one defined using dynamic input

Code: Select all

<tree  rules_hint="true" exported_column="1">
      <height>250</height><width>250</width>
      <label>Stock ID</label>
        <input icon_column="0">cat icon-list</input>
    </tree>
style of tree where icon-list contains

Code: Select all

gtk-media-forward|forward
gtk-media-next|next
gtk-media-pause|pause
gtk-media-play|play
gtk-media-previous|previous
gtk-media-record|record
gtk-media-rewind|rewind
gtk-media-stop|stop
In fact for the second example the pause, record and stop buttons are the only one to have any icon at all, the others are blank

Here is the snippet of the gtkrc I am using

Code: Select all

style "foo" {
stock["gtk-media-forward"] = {{"online.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-next"] = {{"busy.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-pause"] = {{"otp.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-play"] = {{"idle.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-previous"] = {{"away.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-record"] = {{"brb.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-rewind"] = {{"offline.png"}}
stock["gtk-media-stop"] = {{"unknown.png"}}
}
 
widget_class "*" style "foo"
The other loose end I need to tie up is releasing the source of the modified pjsua that I used. So here is a tarball, there is a readme-puppy.txt inside with a brief explanation (Lobster please can you add this file to your repository). Unless you want to modify which pjsua events psip can react to there is no need to hack this.

psip 0.10

#88 Post by gazb »

Just downloaded and installed 0.10, I do not use a eepc so I may be off track, but Just as a gui comment, I think we read information from left to right, when I first look at 0.10 there seems to be a strong up and down eye reading direction, causing your eyes to move all over looking for the correct info. I guess that I prefer the layout in 0.9.13. Enjoying the progress though! Great work!

For those who might like to try a different sip server here is a bit of a selection, compliments of gazb.

Just so you all know, I'm going to make that plain black and white look a bit better tonight and tomorrow morning. I'm adding links to each section of it as well as link to this forum topic, the Wikki, and the Puppy.org page. Since web design is my thing, that's what I will be contributing to the project.

I also corrected the Typo's in the original document. ;)


EDIT: Ok. Update finished. The PSIP Tutorialis now automated. Let me know if you see anything not working on it so I can fix it ASAP.

Looks good but you missed a few of my typo's. You actually introduced one on the heading, tutorial :oops: .

None of the index links worked either.

If you put this document into the community wiki then you can all work on it without having to pass it backwards and forwards. This also has the advantage that when one of you dies or is sent to prison (I don't know which is more likely). The community still has long term editorial access. This is important if the url is distributed in the official iso. You could also use lobsters wiki. There are merits to either option.

Death is more likely. Only some people go to prison. Everyone dies.

Nice work on the HTML Jonathan aka 'Evil'

Yes ALL PSIP documentation should go here as soon as possible . . .
http://puppylinux.org/home

Ask Tom who runs the site - should be in the list of buddies - so leave a voice message to help if unsure . . . :)

I tried to set up a PSIP page but it was rather confusing

Thanks Will.

Try and stay out of prison. Don't die, unless essential. 8)

Thanks for pointing that out. Making corrections now. Gazb pointed out that now the Anchors aren't holding on the page. I had forgotten to change the links to the correct page address when I moved it off my testing server. Thanks for the catch. I've updated the page, and links are now working.

I've added Grant's tutorial to the wikki HERE.

Question:

Is anyone else having the problem of their Gizmo Voicemail greetings not being played when someone calls? I just tried to leave Lobster a voicemail and got nothing but dead air where it's been working before. I got a voicemail from Grant this morning and he stated the same from mine.
