I grabbed a voxware phone prgram recently from Voxware Inc. Though I couldn't connect to a server - what is a voxware server? - it shows the direction where things are evolving. Back to vat: How come that I hear my own voice with a 3 to 5 seconds delay in the audio stream again? Is it because my oppenent was using free room speakers (SGI) while I was using a headset assembly. Would it disappear, when my opponent would use headsets as well ? Or is it an inherent problem with full duplex? (BTW, the fact that the GUS card feeds back the mic to the left earphone channel doesn't seem a bug, it seems being a feature, it gives a good phone impression when talking through the mike). --Chris Christoph P.
