asterisk users - Jan 2007 - force ulaw passthrough if call from modem extension?

I have Teliax trunk set to ulaw and g729 and I have a modem/fax extension
from a sipura forced to ulaw. When the call goes out through Teliax IAX
trunk, asterisk transcodes to g729. Is there a way to tell asterisk not to
transcode calls from/to a specific extension?

I'm running asterisk 1.2.4 and that extension is for my home alarm/dish
network and fax calls.

Thanks

Hi,
I've got an Asterisk setup including a TDM2400 for analog trunks &
extensions plus two IP501s & an IP601 (all firmware 1.6.7 as supplied).

The initial buddy / hint setup was fairly straightforward, but I have a
strange problem in that some extensions don't show any status indication.

Asterisk (V 1.2.13) CLI report for 'show hints' seems to indicate that
the
hints are set up correctly, but the phones are just not attempting to
monitor certain extensions:-

----------------

The (mac)-directory.xml files have all the extensions in, in identical
format, but the phones simply don't seem to be subscribing to certain
'buddys' to show the status.

I've tried deleting directory entries at both an IP501 and the IP601 and
re-creating them, with & without rebooting, but with no effect.
All entries have buddy watch enabled.
The list of working / not working indications is consistent across reboots
of both the phones and the Asterisk PC.

Any ideas appreciated,

Robert Jenkins.

try creating a separate (duplicate) entry in iax.conf for the teliax  
connection disallow 729 on that
trunk and use it for fax/alarm calls.
