asterisk users - Sep 2003 - G729 experiences..

Hi,

I am still toying with the idea of going ahead with using the G.729..

Can those using it tell me about some of your experiences using G.729.. Things
like and problems you had running it, the voice quality and anything else you
can think of...

I have read in the archives that asterisk has to be run with -c.. Is this still
the case? and if so does this mean that * can't be run using the
safe_asterisk script? or started remotely via an SSH session??

I have also read that the voicemailmain app uses up licences.. Does this still
happen and how many does it use??

Thanks..

It's ok...  The voice sounds fine.  It's superior to most cell phone
calls, anyway.

I've used it with the Cisco 7960's without any trouble.

You can use asterisk in any way that uses it in console mode.  Safe
asterisk does so, so you can use it.  This may be otherwise fixed, but
I'm not sure.  As safe asterisk works, I don't worry about it.

Voicemail will use one license for each output stream it has to
transcode.  Therefore, it is preferable if you are using G729 to only
write out one format of voicemail recording.  I use WAV49, which is
small like GSM, but easier to play on default windows installs with any
kind of decent media player installed.  It *does* properly release the
license when done.  (At least now, on my system, it does.)
