GStreamer for massive real-time voice chat
 
|
Greetings,
for a large network that makes massive use of voice communication I'm currently doing some research for a new system that replaces the current one, namely a set of TeamSpeak servers. What I need are basically clients that transmit voice and a server that routes that data to other clients. TeamSpeak is too restrictive here and doesn't allow us to extend it (closed). Mumble/Murmur could be an alternative, but we need so many new features that we decided to go from scratch. So my question is basically if GStreamer would be the library that could make things easier. I'm not looking for finished client/server software, just to make that clear. Is RTP useful for such areas? Sorry if this mail is maybe not specific enough, but I hope you get the idea. ;) If anyone has tips or questions, I'd love to hear them. Best regards, Stefan Schindler. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Stefan,
If I understood your requirement you looking for a VOIP (voice over IP) solution , that would go through a server ? IMHO , it should be fairly possible using gstreamer. Best Kapil

> solution , that would go through a server ? That's true. However, not just through a proxy, but also between multiple clients. It should be possible to: - switch between "channels", - listen to multiple channels and - transmit to multiple channels. This is -- I at least think so -- not really the responsibility of a library like GStreamer, but I'm thinking of using GStreamer for the multimedia part, which means: Capture audio from whatever input device (microphone for example), do some filtering on it, send it to an own-written server that also uses GStreamer to maybe apply some other filters on it or route it to other output streams which are then sent to the target clients. The question here is how far can I go with GStreamer? I know that P2P connections are without a doubt no problem, but does that also count for client/server architectures with multiple (any maybe really a lot of) clients? Thanks for your reply so far, Stefan Schindler. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Sure you can utilize gstreamer for both your client as well as server.
The best part of using gstreamer would be already existing rtp stack & flexibility to add more features in future much easily. Althought based on your description its not very clear what is that you are not sure of gstreamer ? Best Kapil On Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 6:28 PM, Stefan Schindler <[hidden email]> wrote:

Okay this sounds great, but is it also possible to have a listener server only? Else clients would get NAT problems through their router configuration.
However, GStreamer is getting more and more interesting. Thanks for your replies so far. Greetings from the extremely hot Germany, Stefan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Just out of curiosity Stefan, where to you plan to plug in gstreamer?
Are you guys planning to write your own framework from scratch ? -- Raseel On 11-Jul-2010, at 9:50 PM, Stefan Schindler <[hidden email]> wrote: > Okay this sounds great, but is it also possible to have a listener server only?

Not a framework, but a voice server/client software. Can be compared to TeamSpeak, but embedded in our target software with more tranparent use.
We're enhancing an already established virtual flying network and want to replace TeamSpeak with something that we can use as we want, because we need a lot of features that TS or Mumble do not provide. So Gstreamer would act as the input/output component and (if possible) also network transport layer, so that pilots and air traffic controllers can communicate. Thank you for your replies, any help is greatly appreciated. :) Stefan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Hi Stefan,
You should look at the farsight stack. It's built on GStreamer, and is what Empathy uses for VoiP calling, including multi-way conference calls both direct and through a proxy. - Jan.
