I am trying to create a %100 g729 (with no transcoding) system (using a
Soekris, of course). I am running AstLinux with the native sounds, g729
is the only codec allowed, %100 SIP (g729 only allow=) - I think I am
covering all of my bases.
I have only "format=g729" in voicemail.conf. On an incoming call to
a
mailbox, everything goes well until recording the message. When the
message is supposed to be recorded, the voicemail app bombs and this is
displayed on the console:
-- Recording the message
-- x=0, open writing:
/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/105/INBOX/msg0001 format: g729,
0x8140f88
Jun 1 10:08:45 WARNING[15148]: channel.c:2326 set_format: Unable to
find a codec translation path from g729 to slin
Jun 1 10:08:45 WARNING[15148]: app.c:621 ast_play_and_record: Unable to
set to linear mode, giving up
Obviously I don't have codec_g729 installed. The real question is, why
does it need to convert to slinear?
Thanks!

The codec is not just for transcoding audio. It is required to read and write it as well. -- -- Steven http://www.glimasoutheast.org "Kristian Kielhofner" <kris@krisk.org> wrote in message news:447EF7A0.1080505@krisk.org...> I am trying to create a %100 g729 (with no transcoding) system (using a Soekris, of course).

That means converting to SLINEAR :-)

[Asterisk-Users] Re: G729, voicemail, no codec_g729
Sorry for the repost - forgot to put the proper subject last time.
Kevin,
since voicemail doesn't support saving in g729 format (as far as I have
seen last time I looked into the code), it would need to transcode the g729 to
wav or something else at this point to save the voicemail. Isn't that why it
is failing when it hits the voicemail system? (sure sounds like what the error
is complaining about).

Not true. It's possible to do playback of compressed files without
having that codec installed. It should also be possible to record them.
