Hello, If purchase the codec from GIPS, how difficult it is to implant it in Asterisk? What the cost will be? Our company has two Asterisk, one in headquarter and the other in branch office. We only need the communication between them. We are not satisfied with current codec either in bandwidth usage or voice quality. Since Skype really impress us in voice quality, so this kind of idea is generated. BR, Dominic -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

My friends usually say sound quality in asterisk is better than Skype one, i've heard that Skype use a modified version of ILBC ?????????????????????? Adri? Vidal .......................

Therefore, I assume you are talking about the wideband GIPS codec (wideband iLBC) which must be purchased, and which Skype uses. The key issue is that right now Asterisk is rather narrowband oriented. So far, I don't think any work has been done to make it work with wideband codecs. Regards, Steve
