Hello all, I am trying to leave a video voicemail but am unable to do so. I am using Ekiga (formerly Gnomemeeting) to make a SIP connection to Asterisk 1.2.4. Ekiga supports h261 for video. The call connects and negotiation seems okay. When I leave a message, however, only the audio is recorded. Looking in the log file afterwards I see many messages like this: Mar 21 22:02:34 WARNING[2418] translate.c: No translator path from unknown to unknown Mar 21 22:02:34 WARNING[2418] file.c: Unable to translate to format h263, source format unknown For some reason, Asterisk seems to want to use h263, but that's not what is configured. Asterisk is also aware that the phone is using h261 because if I disallow that in sip.conf then video is stopped completely. After the voicemail message has been left, the normal audio files will exist in the inbox. There is also this file: INBOX/msg0000.h263 which has a length of 0 bytes. My sip.conf file contains: videosupport=yes disallow=all allow=gsm allow=h261 I was hoping that these settings would force the issue since Asterisk and the phone would have only one choice. It doesn't seem to have made any difference. I found that tracker issue 0004825 seems to discuss some of these problems regarding video, but I'm not sure this problem is the same. That tracker issue is about codec negotiation. In my setup I have essentially enforced, I think, the exact codecs I want to use in sip.conf. Can anybody offer any suggestions as to what the problem may be? Or maybe how to fix it? -- --John Gruenenfelder Research Assistant, UMass Amherst student Systems Manager, MKS Imaging Technology, LLC.
