Tyler,

Google Talk, Skype, and Gizmo have licensed proprietary CODECs and some other technology from Global IP Sound (GIPS). GIPS has build some excellent jitter-resistant technology and do an excellent job of echo cancelation and other stuff to make the audio quality at or above the PSTN, even on connections that are losey or have high jitter.

iLBC is the GIPS CODEC that they've made available to give people a sense of what excellent engineers they are. Their high bandwidth CODECs do the same thing, but with higher quality.

Thanks,

David

Google Talk sounds great, Much better then the experiences I've had with Xten with Asterisk using any of the supplied codecs. Does anyone have any insight as why Google Talk would perform so much better in a side by side comparison using the same network and same hardware?

    It would probably be a microsoft supplied DLL library file. That means
    it's only free to use on a system running a licensed microsoft OS. You
    can't legally use it on a bootleg windows, windows emulator, etc.
