Unsolved Playing Wav over modem.
-
Hello, no way to play it.
Have you seen a paper which talk about the method to send data correctly?
I think i need to temporize the data with the number "frame". I don't find the command like sleep in Qt 's documentation.
do you have any idea?
Thanks for reading. -
Hi
From the link you listed.
"this shouldn't be required any longer since an update to the interface means you can send your audio as fast as you like and we will buffer it our end."So are you sure you need to send in slices ?
-
My purpose is to make an answering machine with a 56k PCIe modem.
I don't think the caller has the capability to store the wav data.
So, perhaps the command AT+VTX or AT+VSM=16,8000 will be necessary.Cmd-AT+VSM=?;

OKObviously, i need to send a 16 bits per sample with a 8000hz audio sampling rate.
The propriety of my wav is 128kb/s. In 16b, 128kb/s is equivalent 128k/16 = 8000Hz...Wikipedia say
" The modem re-raises the signal in time for the computer to resume sending audio data before the playback buffer becomes completely empty."I don't really understand what this really means.

An idea, but Qfile as private gives some trouble to be declared.
Testing a QTextStream but no way at now.the header:
private: QFile *wavFile; QTextStream *flux; qint64 fileSize; QTimer *timer;
the void :
wavFile= new QFile ("msg2.wav"); if(wavFile->open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)){ timer = new QTimer(this); fileSize = wavFile.size(); //usefull when try wavFile as pointor to the Slot connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(sendWave())); flux= new QTextStream (wavFile); timer->start(200); //1000 =>1s qDebug() <<"Send Data"; } else { qDebug() << "no way to open wav file"; }
the slot:
void MainWindow::sendWave(){ if (!flux->atEnd()) { m_serial.write(flux->readLine()); } else { qDebug() <<"End Send Data"; timer->stop(); } // }
This always loops...
flux->realNumberPrecision() give the same number before and after flux->readLine().Thanks for reading.
-
void MainWindow::sendWave(){ if (!flux->atEnd()) { const char *tmp= flux->read(1024).toStdString().c_str(); m_serial->write(tmp); m_serial->flush(); flux->seek(flux->pos()+1024); } else { qDebug() <<"End Send Data"; timer->stop(); } }
Need to use pos and seek
But wav dont play soundPerhaps the timer is so slow.
With a wav coding in 16 bit 8000hz , 1024b corresponds to 8ms.
My calcul seem to be true. My wave during 1m56s for 1814 loops. So, one loop is during 8.5ms.
In fact, the program don't send data during more the 1 minute...
So surprise.Try with 5 and try to see it the modem <DTE> send full buffer ...
Not easy to go blind.
Need more help. -
const char *tmp= flux->read(1024).toStdString().c_str();
put this because compilator sends an error.
as we can see, it is not look like some hexadecimal blocks.
Different lengths and hexabits are traduced to arabic words..1-P��(С�%WAVEfmt [.. and after..] 1-ض�( [.. and after..] 1-ض�(ض�(

@An-other-french said in Playing Wav over modem.:
void MainWindow::sendWave(){
if (!flux->atEnd()) {const char *tmp= flux->read(1024).toStdString().c_str(); m_serial->write(tmp); m_serial->flush(); flux->seek(flux->pos()+1024); } else { qDebug() <<"End Send Data"; timer->stop(); }
}
This code looks odd. How about:
if (!flux->atEnd()) { const QByteArray data = flux->read(1024); m_serial->write(data); m_serial->flush(); }
Need to use pos and seek
If you read a file sequentially, no. Every
read(1024)
puts the read pointer 1024 byte further. You may need to check if you have read less then 1024 byte at the end. Note:readLine()
does not work well for binary files like wave. -

const QByteArray data = flux->read(1024);Ah, you read from a
QTextStream
. Citing the documentation: "The QTextStream class provides a convenient interface for reading and writing text." This class converts your file data to QString, which is not what you want!Well, you don't want to write text! You want to write binary data. So either operate directly on
QFile
(as I would do) or dig into QDataStream.Regards.

Thanks for info.
I had probleme to follow the position in the QFile.
Perhaps made a mistake.
So i try again. -
Another tip: get yourself a serial port monitor to see what you actually write to the serial port. This makes also sure you get the timing right.
Good luck :)

QByteArray data = wavFile->read(1024);
Ok for a truncate data of 1024b , qDebug show this. I put a newline after "

this part is strong :

I except to read something like this:

Sure there is a conversion somewhere.
the last 16b line:

I can anderstand /x but $ or * is an other way.
Ps: My purpose is to play wave on the phone

@An-other-french to output binary data for debugging, I recommend you to use
QByteArray::toHex()
. -
No way to play any sound.
In the purpose to see modem response, i want to show Modem answer.
So, i need to connect the serial com to the text objectconnect (m_serial, &QSerialPort::readyRead, this, &MainWindow::readData);
void MainWindow::readData(){ QByteArray data = m_serial->readAll(); ... ui->textEdit->append("1-"+ data.left(data.size())); ... }
My function don't make difference between input or output(response).
Do you have a idea to show them distinctly?
-
@An-other-french said in Playing Wav over modem.:
Your connect and the readAll in the slot looks good so far.
data.left(data.size())
What do you expect from this construct? It should be the same as
data
alone.As suggested earlier, use a serial port monitor to see which commands you actually send to the modem and wheter it answers.
-
@aha_1980 said in Playing Wav over modem.:
data.left(data.size())
It's a tentative to cut the data. Just data is better.
As suggested earlier, use a serial port monitor to see which commands you actually send to the modem and wheter it answers.
I don t know how to distinct the write and the read.
m_serial->readAll();
give all of us. -
@An-other-french said in Playing Wav over modem.:
I don t know how to distinct the write and the read. m_serial->readAll(); give all of us.
Sorry, what do you mean?
serial->readAll()
returns everything that the modem has send to your program since the lastserial->readAll()
call.That's why I recommended to use a serial port monitor, which captures the data between your program and the modem so you can easier debug.

To put header into the blocks send to the comserial, I need to size sample.
Show bellow a wave file header.header "RIFF>\xC1\x1B\x00WAVEfmt \x10\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x02\x00@\x1F\x00\x00\x80>\x00\x00\x02\x00\b\x00""data\b\xC0\x1B\x00\x7F\x7F\x7F\x7F" header Hex data "52 49 46 46 3e c1 1b 00 57 41 56 45 66 6d 74 20 10 00 00 00 01 00 02 00 40 1f 00 00 80 3e 00 00 02 00 08 00 64 61 74 61 08 c0 1b 00 7f 7f 7f 7f"
I need to get the Bitspersample with an offet of 34 and 4 bits long.
QByteArray header = wavFile->read(48); // header of wave file (.... 00 **08 00** 64...) qint8 BitsPerSample =header.toHex().data()[34]; //And the [35] after anderstand how to do qDebug() << "header "<< header ; qDebug() << "header "<< header.toHex(' ') ; qDebug() << "Bits per sample" << BitsPerSample; // print out 48
Why debug print 48? I want 08.
In reading, in base 10, 48 gives 2048.
Thanks for reading.Whynot
BitsPerSample =qint8(header[34]);

See here a methode
It uses a data stream in little Endian.
I really don't understand the sens of chunkDataSize and if this makes trouble along the sample data sending. -
Where i am now...
I put a timer to prevent the modem buffer from being saturated
m_command = "AT+VTX;\r"; output = m_command.toStdString().c_str(); m_serial->write(output); m_serial->flush(); timer = new QTimer(this); connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(sendWave())); timer->start(Latence);
The first bugg is the time it takes for the Hayes command to respond before sending a wave sample data to the modem.
I don't know how to wait the answer.
I think about a boolean to stop timer.
But I saw the example talking about waitForReadyRead.I will not certain where i need to put this wait because of use
connect(m_serial, &QSerialPort::readyRead, this, &MainWindow::readData);
An idea.
Thanks for reading.
