Re: [ViaTalk] Partial fix for DTMF issue
The proper setting for DTMF of your device, is auto. If you are having issues once set to this setting, give our tech support staff a call and have them work with you on this. If you continue to have issues, submit a ticket and ask to have it sent to the attention of iain whom will be able to troubleshoot any issues you are having.

| I submitted a trouble ticket on July 14th in regards to my dmtf tones on my line not working properly. They were working fine until that time so I don't know what changed. Anyways, I received the following reply shortly after submitting the ticket:
"We are working on this issue and expect a resolution soon.
Karen L Harvey
ViaTalk Support"
The issues still exists and I submitted another follow up ticket with what VTBrendan said to do.
Let's see if it can get resolved! |

VTBrendan,
With all due respect, your DTMF is busted ... No if and or butts about it.
For us VT users, we stick with "inband" because that's what works with the untold millions of places we call. We have NO issues with using inband unless we use VT voice mail. It only works on without "Inband". Auto doesn't work with my clients Voice mail system and we have ten's of people who take the time to post about the double tones.
I have been a very positive supporter of VT, the service and your support have been great, but this issue hasn't made any progress, none, zip, nada ... The issue is not DTMF ( we all can use inband thankyou ), it is your inhouse voice mail needing anything but inband to work
I had assumed you knew it was still fubar'ed and were working inhouse to resolve.
If you still have doubts, or think I'm just a noisy or pushy VT user, use your own service, call a cell phone and listen for yourself on the double tones when Auto is selected.
For me, I just don't use your Voice Mail and have "in Band selected". When the day comes you have a perminate fix, I'll switch back to auto
I am sorry if this post is a bit rough. My intent was for you to understand it has NEVER worked and still doesn't. Most of us just give up. I for one have many other things to do than worry if all my features work.
Best Regards |

| I am a certified ViaTalk supporter. The features and price IMHO are the best. My only complaint is that the story I (we) get from VT tech support is not always consistent. Some tech's say "It's a known issue and we are working on it" Some act as if they have not heard of the issue and spend a lot of time trying to solve it for the customer. It would seem to me that AUTO is Viatalks preferred DTMF Xmit method. But we as users are finding that INBAND is what works (Except VT Voicemail). VTBrendan, why can't you setup VT's Voicemail to accept INBAND? The Codec that is used by VT is about the best (At the cost of high bandwidth) quality Codec and this is shown to be true by the use of INBAND as the method we the customers have found to work. What we need here is a quick poll. If you use the AUTO mode and it works, Please let us know. Maybe the problem is restricted to just a few users. IF so, then I am willing to be patient. If not, then lets get working on a fix and make sure all VT's tech support staff are on the same page.

I submitted a ticket over a week ago (IBU-59585) and haven't received any response yet. With the work-around I found for VM access though, I can leave my adaptor set to 'INBAND' and access all IVRs just fine.
This would be easier if VT Voicemail recognized inband DTMF without having to use a workaround. Either that, or figure out why the duplication is occuring and fix the root cause.
Like guppy_fish said, it's easy to replicate - just set the adaptor to 'auto' and call your cell phone and listen to the tones. The are obviously being duplicated. Or just call the number I listed as an example in my Ticket and listen to it read back the duplicate codes.
This duplication has gotten much more consistent since the system was adjusted a week or two ago. Inband solves the problem for every system I've tried with the single exception of VT VM. |
