Hi Valentin,

Your patch looks good in general, however I think there is a problem in the way you generated it, because it also cancels a few recent commits that were done. See for example in mediastreamer2 the l16.c file that is removed, and the --disable-tests option that is also removed.
Can you check ?

Concerning the notify feature, I have a few remarks:
* Rather than having multiple #ifdef HAVE_NOTIFY, it would be clearer to have all the notification stuff related to call states into a single function. I mean that you could create a single call_state_changed_process_notifications() function to perform all the notifications related to call states changed. * Also I think it could be a more common practice to have notifications popping up _only_ when the GUI is hidden (linphone running in background or main window not visible). Otherwise it is somewhat redundant. What do you think ? I think that should be easy to know with gtk if a window is visible to the user.

Thank you,

Simon

Hi Simon

I tried putting notification windows via libnotify where they seemed useful : For incoming calls, you can chose to answer or decline the call and, on Ubuntu, it opens a (more intrusive) pop-up window instead of a simple notification bubble. For other notifications (call ending or transferred, errors, resuming, paused by remote), it should work as intended.

I also made a kind of "beep" signal for incoming calls when already in call.
It may need some tweaking, and perhaps doesn't really need two tones.

Cheers

Valentin

Hi Valentin,

I think it could be smart to have notification windows above the status
icon, when for example an incoming call is arriving.
The current behavior when an incoming call is to show up the linphone
window, but this grabs focus and keyboard input, which is annoying.
We could imagine to have to display instead a smart nofication bubble in
the notication area, saying that "someone is calling", and with two
buttons to decide to accept or decline the call.

From what I understand gnome's libnotify library can be used for that.

Another interesting feature would be that when linphone receives an
incoming call while already in call, it plays some small beeps to signal
the new call to the user.
The current behavior is just to display the new call next to the current
one in the tab of calls, but the user might not see it. The playing of
the tones should be done by using the MSDtmfGen object of the
AudioStream that belongs to the active call.

Best regards,

Simon

Hello

I'm interested in Linphone and have some time this month so I'm
willing to contribute.
I had thought of maybe improving the Gtk interface.

Do you have an idea of features to add (to the gui or elsewhere) ?

Valentin
