Clive Alexander 1009686 Posted March 4, 2019 at 10:05 AM Posted March 4, 2019 at 10:05 AM Hello I have not used VATSIM for many years but as I am now retired I am interested in using VATSIM again. Other than time constraints I have not used VATSIM as I have a slight speech impediment which at times can be very difficult and stressful for me. I am aware that I am able to use text-based communication but I prefer the real experience. The reason for this message is to inquire about progress on the development and use of the new CODEC. The new codec, improving audio speech quality, will [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist me in being more confident using VATSIM as the present poor quality of audio communication from controllers makes it more difficult for me to cope with, not only do I have to contend with controlling my own speech impediment but I have to contend with sometimes very poor quality audio from controllers.

Daniel Morris 1132365 Posted March 6, 2019 at 03:36 PM Posted March 6, 2019 at 03:36 PM I'd also love to hear about any updates, I'm glad the upcoming changes may [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist you and those with similar difficulties. I can hardly understand what controllers are saying at present anyway! I'd love to rejoin the network too Most projects make a lot of progress at the start and tail off drastically, hence a lot of shouting about it at the start and for a while now we've heard nothing, however with transparency comes community support, almost cheering on the end product (see airportCEO's weekly devblog) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Fuchs Posted March 6, 2019 at 04:25 PM Posted March 6, 2019 at 04:25 PM From what I can observe online, the new codec is being tested on a regular basis. In conclusion they must be working on it. It will come.

Matt Mamuzich Posted March 8, 2019 at 05:19 AM Posted March 8, 2019 at 05:19 AM Im sure I am wishing for too much, but does anyone know what kind of VHF simulation would be available when this comes out? Mainly thinking how cool it'd be to simulate fighter/oxygen mask along with VHF. Just dreamin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
