New features: multi-room ConferenceServer, IpServer/IpClient byte order detection, MediaGate raw streaming and more.

11 Feb 2008. Multi-room conference server

ConferenceServer supports a number of separate voice chat rooms now. When you create a room on the server side, you set the room name and password. Specifying a room name/password on the client side connects a client to the corresponding server room.

There is no need in assigning a separate TCP/UDP port for each room. ConferenceServer uses a single TCP/UPD port for all the rooms.

26 Sep 2007. MediaGate component raw streaming

MediaGate.StreamingMode property has been added. Set StreamingMode = RAW if you stream audio to a Barix device.

This is extremely useful if you develop a web page which sends audio to Barix Anuncicom (read more about web to Barix streaming).

14 Aug 2007. Packet drop-out bug is fixed

Packet drop-out bug caused by packet mix-up is fixed.

09 Aug 2007. Byte order detection

We have recently discovered that you may experience the byte-order problem with Barix Annuncicom device when you stream audio in PCM format. There is no problem with other codecs (aLwa, uLaw, MPEG) though, so the text below applies to the uncompressed format only.

(Read the article about VCX library + Barix Annuncicom)

In order to overcome this problem, you can now use StreamByteOrderInput IpServer component property which let you always swap bytes, auto-detect the byte order once and swap bytes accordingly, or auto-detect the byte order and swap bytes constantly.

Try the "auto-detect once" option and then "auto-detect constantly" one.

StreamByteOrderInput and StreamByteOrderOutput properties have been added to IpServer and IpClient components.

18 Jul 2007. Deploy over the web more easily

You don't need to put the .lpk file on the server any more in order to successfully license the VCX library in your user's web browser. It's enough now to install the VCProWebX.ocx via the "Object" tag.

11 Jul 2007. VCProX.lic registration file location

Enterprise license only.

You can copy the VCProX.lic file containing your registration key and VCProX.ocx file to the same directory. Windows/system32 directory is no longer required for VCProX.lic. It's essential if you use Visual Studio 2005 ClickOnce technology to deploy your solution.
