JackenIAX with multiple lines support

Jacken — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 14:16:41 +0000

I finally completed a new version of JackenIAX. It now has up to four lines support. I also added a searchable call log. Lot’s of other small improvements as well.

JackenIAX and multiple lines

Jacken — Sun, 19 Mar 2006 18:12:19 +0000

I finally have a version of JackenIAX that supports multiple lines. I have added so you can choose to output background music for the calls on hold. There’s a lot of testing, and I also have to rethink the user interface to be able to handle multiple calls. But i think it’s going to be cool.

Adding new features

Every time I answer the phone (yes, I’m using JackenIAX), I have to pause iTunes before answering. So today I added an option so when you answer or dial, iTunes pauses automatically. It will be in the next release (within a couple of days) I had to rewrite a large section of code for some other features that I have planned. I’m getting a bit more comfortable with Cocoa programming, and discovers old code full of brain farts. And the code is getting smaller with more features. A step in the right direction…

New version of JackenIAX

I just put up a new version of JackenIAX. Added Applescript support, URL dialing (currently only via Applescript), DTMF tones when dialing etc.

Test number for JackenIAX

I have put up a test FWD number to dial to try out JackenIAX. Dial 748502 to try it out.

Looks like it works on Intel Mac

I just received a mail from a user of JackenIAX. He’s running a patched version of Mac OS X on a generic PC, and now the program works on his machine. Cool! So now I guess JackenIAX is working on Intel Macs as well. Debugging via proxy (I don’t have an Intel Mac) is not the way to go. You could press the Donate button on this page, and I promise to buy a Intel Mac for debugging. Nudge Nudge…

New features in JackenIAX

Jacken — Thu, 23 Feb 2006 19:41:31 +0000

I’ve added a couple of new features in JackenIAX.

Added a symbol to indicate when you got new voice messages in your Asterisk server. Rewrote all of the code for the indicator symbols. Nothing you will notice, but I feel good about it. Now the codec selection actually work. Input validation of all preferences.

Problems on the other end

As you may know I recently released my new program for VoIP for the mac. I have written instructions on the home-page how to get a free account at FWD Free World Dialup to test. It seems they have a lot of downtime, so I get a lot of bug reports. I really need another free IAX provider to recommend. Anyone knows about one?

First beta of JackenIAX released

Jacken — Sat, 18 Feb 2006 01:38:58 +0000

So it’s finally time to release my IAX softphone for Macintosh. It’s still very much in beta, but I need feedback on how everything works. There’s a lot of stuff that I’m adding that didn’t make it into this release. Have a look here.

The release of the first beta of JackenIAX SoftPhone for Mac OS 10.4 is imminent

I just need to write rudimentary install instructions, finish the simple homepage for downloading and I’m in business. So any day now…

If you are in a hurry, mail me at info@jackenhack.com and ask if you can join the beta team.
