[Asterisk-Users] Teliax - Codec Preference effective?
Has anyone had problems getting their preffered codecs on the Teliax web interface taking effect? I have two accounts, two separate yet similarly configured * servers. On one account the settings took right away - on another server I am getting no result. In fact, no matter what I change the settings to, only the old codecs are usable (otherwise * says it can't negotiate a codec). Teliax support says it is an * bug, but I think contrary... One * box works, one doesn't... Same config... Anyone else? Sincerely, Brent A.

I use Teliax for 2 different businesses; 1 uses ulaw and the other uses g729. I didn't set anything in the Teliax control panel, I just set everything on the Asterisk box; works great for me. Is there a reason you're setting it @ Teliax and not in the Asterisk box? (excuse this question if it's a dumb one) -ross -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Brent Torrenga Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2006 3:20 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Teliax - Codec Preference effective?

You can do a SIP debug and see what they are advertising as available codecs...and that should prove that they are not requesting the correct codec. -----Original Message----- From: Brent Torrenga [mailto:lists@torrenga.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2006 4:20 PM To: Asterisk User List Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Teliax - Codec Preference effective?

Brent, I had this same problem with Teliax (atleast it sounds the same). I had wanted to use g729 over IAX, so I set that on the Teliax website, but it would not connect. After weeks of asking for resolution, I just gave up and used g726 which was working. Then, about a month later, I moved my * box and while taking the time to set it up again I thought I'd try g729 with Teliax again... This time it worked?!? I was glad it worked, but couldn't figure out why. I explained the situation to Teliax, and never got a response. I still use Teliax, and have no problems, but I don't give them high marks for how this situation was handled.

I have found that it takes a certain amount of time for the codec preferences that I enter on Teliax's website to actually take effect. The amount of time has varied from 5 minutes to several hours in my experience, although I have not changed the settings in some time. I have also found that if Teliax does not know how to or does not wish to solve a problem, they will ignore you even when you explicitly bring the fact that they are ignoring you to their attention and request a response. (My experience with this behavior did not have anything to do with the codec selection delay but rather with some billing issues that still have not been resolved.) -Rusty On 1/31/06, Brent Torrenga <lists@torrenga.com> wrote:> Has anyone had problems getting their preffered codecs on the Teliax web > interface taking effect? > > I have two accounts, two separate yet similarly configured * servers.

Sorry to bring up this old topic, but I had the same issue. The solution, at least to my problem, was the realization the Teliax lets you set the codec settings for SIP and IAX independently and the default setting when you load the page is SIP. So if you make the changes there, but you're using an IAX trunk, it will never take effect. If you click on IAX, right above the codec selection, you will see the IAX settings. It does take between 1 and 12 hours for the new settings to take effect.

In the first packet you send you say CODEC_PREFS = g726 and FORMAT = 16 This means that you are _only_ prepared to do g726 (Thats a Six not a Nine by the way) They reject the call because they don't want to do 726 and you didn't offer anything else.
