    Default Java Voice chat over the internet.

    I want to create a voice chat application in pure java socket programming.
    I used UDP protocol to transfer recorded voice from one client to another but when i test it over the internet voice is not comming continuously.
    As i am new to this voice chat application, someone may suggest what should i do for getting continuous voice.

    The Scenario is like this.
    Flow of voice chat as this shows only one way communication-
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    FLOW of data
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Client1------------------------------>> Server ------------------------------------>>Client2

    Client1:
    Reading 1KB voice buffer from TargateDataLine then create a voice packet and sent to server.

    Server: Receive from client1 and then send to client2.

    Client2: Receive the UDP packet and get voice data then play.


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Also facing the bandwidth up and down problem.
    What should be the minimum bandwidth to use voice chat. Ex- skype required 30KBPS udloading/downloading speed.


    Thanks in advance.

    This I would say is a fairly complex problem.

    But there are already standards in place for Real-Time Conversational Applications, like RTP
    and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) for establishing multimedia connections.
    And I do believe implementing these protocols will make your life a lot easier than trying to do this from scratch (if that's what you're trying to).

    So unless you're already using RTP, I would at least start there:
    RTP: About RTP and the Audio-Video Transport Working Group
    https://java.net/projects/jrtp

    And some info on SIP:
    SIP - voip-info.org
    https://jsip.java.net/

    Not sure if this is what you were hoping for, and I might have misunderstood the problem, but it looks to me to be such a monumental task that this is the best I can do

    Unless you want to discuss the specific underlying problems of packet ordering, playback synchronization, network jittering (++) when implementing real-time audio over UDP.
    But I believe you would have to specify in more detail to get the help you want...

    Cheers,
    Martin

    You should try looking into JMF studio, I think you gain access to your webcam from there.
