Re: Meteor caller id help

[Kevin Hawkins <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm curious - I must admit I use xAP TSS for my incoming call
announcements and not HomeSeer , and that works fine. What would be
useful is to look at the xAP messages in xAP Viewer and see if you are
getting a flood of those, if so which ones and which specific one
triggers the situation. I will also try this myself and see if I can
reproduce it, although I am currently running HS v2 . The interaction
with xAP Switchboard is quite 'stateful' as the call progress messages
go through a sequence and this might make it awkward to identify the
issue, it may also confuse xAP SB if the messages arrive out of order.

The install version of xAPTel is slightly out of date - I will send you
the latest offlist , although the changes are minor and I don't think
will have any bearing on this. I would also recommend disabling "Basic
CID Schema" in the configuration box (save and restart xAPTel). This
occasionally causes duplicated announcement messages as xAPTel is
sending two callerID schemas if this is enabled. However you would have
only got 2 and not continually repeating announcemnets. Which version of
the xAP HS plugin are you running BTW ? I need to also work out just how
that announcement happens - the ' incoming call from ....' bit - is that
generated in a script or is it an inbuilt aspect of HS. xAP SB can
generate very similar TTS messages but as the speech is hapening from
the HS server machine and you dont have xAP TTS it is curious .
