Blink Qt for Linux is now available in development branch with support for the new core using ultra-wideband and native ALSA support. To test it you need to have the development tree and build it locally on a Debian or Ubuntu system.

First install the latest debian packages for Blink Qt from the official repository:

http://projects.ag-projects.com/projects/documentation/wiki/Repositories

sudo apt-get install blink

Install building dependencies¶

sudo apt-get build-dep python-sipsimple

Fetch development tree¶

Fetch latest python-sipsimple SDK and blink-qt source code:

• darcs get http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/python-sipsimple
• darcs get http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/blink-qt

Use pull instead of get if you already had the trees download, in order to update them.

Build SIP SIMPLE Client SDK¶

Build the SDK in place without installing system-wide:

cd python-sipsimple
# make the scripts executable if your darcs configuration did not take care of it
chmod +x deps/pjsip/configure
chmod +x deps/pjsip/aconfigure
chmod +x build_inplace
./build_inplace

Run Blink¶

cd blink-qt
export PYTHONPATH=../python-sipsimple
# make the scripts executable if your darcs configuration did not take care of it
chmod +x ./run
chmod +x ./bin/blink
./run

We committed code into the development trunk that brings the core up to date with the developments from PJSIP 2.x project. An immediate and visible improvement is the availability of ultra-wideband audio support. OPUS codec full wideband at 48kHz sampling rate and Speex at 32kHz are now by default enabled. Portaudio has been removed and native ALSA is being used as audio backend in Linux. Other improvements will become soon visible like the possibility of adding video.

Installation Instructions
 
Installation¶

Sylkserver version 2.4.0 has now been released with a major milestone, namely VoIP translation between SIP and XMPP (Jingle). Complete interoperability for multimedia sessions including Presence, Session based Chat, wide-band Audio and multi-party conferencing for all supported media is now possible using user@domain addressing for both SIP and XMPP protocols. There is no configuration needed beyond the Internet domains for which the translation should take place. Blink on the SIP side and Jitsi on the XMPP side have been used to test the calls flows involved.

The software is GPL licensed, available as a free download and provided as a service by SIP2SIP. To test you can use SIP accounts from sip2sip.info and XMPP accounts from jit.si using the latest builds of the above mentioned clients.

Many thanks to AG Projects and NLNet foundation for funding and development and Blue Jimp team, the maker of Jitsi, for helping troubleshooting interoperability issues on the Jingle side.

Change log¶

• Added VoIP translation for SIP/XMPP gateway (Jingle)
• Added Presence to Bonjour conference rooms (XEP-0174)
• Added support for XMPP software version (XEP-0092)
• Added support for XMPP ping (XEP-0199)
• Reply with service-unavailable to unsupported XMPP IQ stanzas
• Improved XMPP service discovery support (XEP-0115)
• Fixed a race condition related to SIP subscriptions
• Improved description of XMPP related settings
