Hello, I'm trying to find out if Asterisk will support plain G729 or G729b. I've read all over that it supports G729, but I can't seem to find any explicit remarks regarding the specific versions of the codec Asterisk will support. I noticed that Digium allows Asterisk users to register and download G729a, but refers to it as G729 on it's pages. I also noticed that on

Hello! I am wondering how the differences between G729, G729a, and G729b effect call bridging and server interoperability. For example, can one server use the G729 code with another server that uses the G729A codec? Also, which version is Asterisk set up to use? Thanks! Elliot

Hi all, i have purchased the g.729 codec from digium. The registration was successful. (with the "old" binary) But there're a few questions: - should not the codec listed in the codec list when i enter "show codecs" ? - the codec is named with g729b but if i enter show codecs there is a codec g729a listed also the g729b is not installed. what is the difference between

Hello all, I have a cisco AS5300 which is register with a gatekeeper and a Asterisk server also register with the gatekeeper. PSTN ---->AS5300 ---->Gatekeeper ---->Asterisk I set up a conference room on the Asterisk sever (Room No 1234). I try to call from PSTN to AS5300, The AS5300 will call the Asterisk server through the gatekeeper. I manage to get to the start of the conference

I am having some problems with g729 with SIP and ZAP channels. 1) I have two g729 licences. Very frequetnly (I don?t know what triggers the error) I get the following warnings and error when I try to place a call via SIP to my X100P. The only way to get out of this is through a restart of *. When the error ocurrs there are no other calls in place. Any ideas? Error Opening channel:2 not

I have a fresh 1.4.10.1 installation that appears to have a problem with g729 pass-through. I can see the gateway in question sending an INVITE using g729b. However, the Asterisk is only sending g711 in the INVITE to my Polycom phone. [gateway] disallow=all allow=g729 [phone] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw allow=g729 There's the codec configs for the gateway and the phone in question.

Hello all, I am running Asterisk 1.4.17. I have 2 Linksys SPA3102's and one PAP2-NA (I have a second on order). They have G729a built into them. This is supposed to be compatable with G729. I was trying to have them use that codec when they talk to each other, but it seems they always switch to alaw or ulaw (depending on my sip.conf file). Shouldn't they be able to use G729a in

Hello, I've successfully installed Asterisk from last CVS and configured it for using with DLINK-DG104S as mgcp CPE and PGW2200 as external sip server. All are work fine at G711 codecs, but then I disable all codecs except g729 some calls failed (Not all calls. Some calls passed at g729 succesfully). All my devices configred to use only g729 and I don't see other codecs at mgcp or sip

I have come to realize that I don't have to have a g729a license in order to make use of an ATA-186 or 7460 connecting to another 7460. I just need to allow the codec in sip.conf. Now what ramification does that have when I dial out over one of my analog line (connected to * by a channelbank and a T100P) using my 7460 or ATA-186. The only benefit I am looking for is reduced bandwidth

Hello, I managed to terminate calls from cisco: as5300 and 7206 to asterisk over h323. I tested both oh323 from inaccessnetwork and JerJers chan_h323. I used 1.12.2 version of oh323 and 1.5.2 version of pwlib. After latest changes from JerJer chan_h323.c works ok when receiving traffic from ciscos. I havnt found any audio problems although I didnt send much traffic. Latest oh323 has some

Per my conversation below with digium, are there any legal alternatives to digium's G729? It is out of date, and doesn't support VAD nor silence detection. Digium has stated that they have no plans to update it anytime soon. VAD/Silence is a big deal with major carriers and we are having to fight a battle to get them to make special arrangements to turn off VAD/Silence in their

Hi list! Again Wengo has made changes to their servers that require modifications to * configs. Is there anyone that has the 'new' wengo working with asterisk that could post their configs? Also they switched codecs, now G720a is required to connect. I can only find an (open) G729 codec, is this the same as G729a? Thanks!

Hi, I've oh323 chan installed and working to make calls from SIP to H323 devices. The problem is can no hear sound with the H323 device. I think this is some related with codecs o nat, because the H323 have one public IP from a different subnet from the asterisk box. If I use netmeeting in gateway mode, the call can be completed and I can talk with a SIP device, but in gateway mode I can not

Hi folks, In an effort to save bandwidth (our 7905s run over a WAN) we've switched from ulaw to g729a. We purchased 4 licenses from Digium (4 SIP clients, low call volume), and they seem to have been accepted: [codec_g729a.so] => (Annex A/B (floating point) G.729/PCM16 Codec Translator) == G.729 Host-ID: 07:53:aa:d3:e2:f2:bd:cc:27:60:9d:5f:da:eb:5d:e9:6e:09:a1:4e == Found license

I have a Linksys PAP2. Identical setups for the two channels in both the unit and in Asterisk. In particular, both channels enable g729 and set it as the preferred codec, and have disallow=all and allow=g729 in sip.conf. If we make a call on one channel, it works (and uses g729), but if we make a call on the other channel when the first one is still connected, it fails. We have three g729

I own a G729b codec from voiceage which I had from Digium a couple of months ago , I friend of mine had the new Digium G729 codec which registers in the asterisk as a Annex A/B codec, the problem that we saw is that the call goes thru find but we cannot here any sound. Asterisk is showing this : -- SIP/10.10.1.1-babc is ringing -- SIP/10.10.1.1-babc answered
