Hello.

Using Freepbx 15.0.29 / Asterisk 16.21.1

Checking logs into my Freepbx, I can see that there are lost frames

    -- Channel PJSIP/1009-00000001 joined 'simple_bridge' basic-bridge <9717e7e6-f720-46f1-909e-cc9f9cdef9ec>

The line is

If I check the stats…

In this particular case, the phone link was good.

Why are there lost frames ?

Thanks in advance.

Furthermore, this message seems to be associated with chan_dongle, which is third party code, and, to the best of my knowledge, no longer supported.

Asterisk 16 no longer receives bug fixes.

Hum… I tested this in the past to play with 2G voice calls.
Interesting…

But strange that this comes here while I do not use it anymore.

Anyway, I’m building new system based on old XIVO hardware where I installed last Freepbx version.
Will not have chan_dongle anymore.

Many thanks for your help.

Regards,
Laurent.

It is possible that it isn’t just chan_dongle, although that is the context in which others have reported it. I think it has to be RPi though, given that the message isn’t in the official code.
