Short: AmiTCP based voice chat program
Type: comm/net
Author: jfriesne@ucsd.edu (Jeremy Friesner)
Uploader: jfriesne@ucsd.edu (Jeremy Friesner)
Requires: Workbench 2.04+, AmiTCP3.0b+, audio digitizer
Replaces: comm/net/AmiPhone1.90.lha
Version: 1.91
----------------------------------------------------------------
AMIPHONE 1.91
(Released 6/29/96)
----------------------------------------------------------------
This is a public release of my TCP/IP based voice chat software.
With it and a digitizer and microphone, you can transmit your
voice over the Internet or a LAN to another Amiga or Amigas that
are running AmiPhone.
AmiPhone requires Workbench 2.04 or higher, AmiTCP 3.0b or higher,
and a sampler with a microphone. Also, a fast CPU and fast Internet
connection are highly recommended.
NOTE: AmiPhone is not compatible with I-Phone or any other
Internet-phone type program at this time.
New in version 1.91:
- If AmiPhone is queueing samples pending TCP transmission, the
number of seconds of audio queued will now be displayed in
the title bar.
- AmiPhone's main window is now an AppWindow. You can drop
sound files onto it to have them played and/or transmitted.
- AmiPhoned now displays the number of milliseconds of audio
currently queued for playback, as well as a plus or minus
symbol to represent whether the audio queue is filling or draining.
- AmiPhoned's window will now enlarge itself if it wants to
display a title bar message that is too large to fit.
- Rewrote AmiPhoned's queueing code to be simpler and more efficient.
- AmiPhone now supports the Delfina sound card, and even uses
the Delfina's DSP to do the ADPCM compression. Thanks to Teemu
Suikki for his programming & testing help with this!
- Added the "Start Client" option to AmiPhoned's Project menu.
- Added the "Startup Delay submenu" to AmiPhoned's GUI.
- Added the "STARTUPDELAY" ToolType.
- Rewrote much of the sampling and volume-detection code.
- Removed support for soft interrupts, and removed the SAMPLETECHNIQUE
startup argument.
- Split the MICGAIN startup argument into "MICGAIN" and "LINEGAIN".
- Changed the name of the "Input Gain" submenu to "Line Gain".
- Added the "Mic Gain" submenu.
* Changing the AmiPhone window title text is now asynchronous
to the rest of the program
* Default packet delay is now 200ms.
* Default "idle" sampling rate is now 500Hz.
