[ANSWERED] VoIP phone actor possible?
-
Hi,
I have been using and teaching myself Isadora over the last couple of years.
I am beginning work on a new project next year where we will be building a PBX telephone network for an installation.
Has anyone implemented a VoIP phone actor into Isadora which can answer calls and be routed audio or trigger things when called? Would this be possible with the pythoner actor and pyVoIP?
I have close to zero coding ability and have only just started working with VoIP phones and PBXs, but find the concept of calling Isadora incredibly interesting.

I used to have an installation set up where you could Skype into it and interact with recorded video, I can't remember how i built it, but it must have been super simple because I made it myself ; ) -

I think so, you can use a specialized library like pjsua for Python if you're working with SIP-specific (the Session Initiation Protocol, commonly used for VoIP) operations, or the socket library for direct communication if your PBX system doesn't offer SIP support or is missing features.
Using pjsua would be the easier option, so it's probably worth ensuring your PBX system supports SIP. -
Thanks @dusx,
My PBX does support SIP so I will give pjsua a look.
