Documentation on audio devices

[aggerritsen]

Hi,

After spending ages on getting a softphone on Python3 working on a Raspian Bullseys 32-bit I accidentally found this outstanding work, build on deprecated PJSIP stuff, but it seems to work. I now have some basis end users questions, for starters: is there any documentation available on the softphone package? More specifically, I like to know how to use USB speaker/mic of other audio devices to actually perform a real conversation. Any help would be very welcome.

Cheers, Arjen

Hi.

Unfortunately I did not ever get around to writing any documentation on this since I lost interest in the project.

I would however recommend that you have a look at the get_sound_devices() function which will list all sound devices available on your system.

At the time of writing this library pjsip/pjsua did not have support for capturing audio which is why this was built on a deprecated fork. I believe the pjsip team discussed getting it implemented but it does not seem they ever got around to doing it.

If you are looking for a pure python implementation for SIP I would recommend that you take look at https://github.com/tayler6000/pyVoIP as well. I have some plans of rewriting everything in this project to use that instead at some point in the future.
