All,

Our users have a softphone client that supports the G723 Codec which we want to use for bandwidth reasons, however we do not wish (or have the funds) to license the codec on our Asterisk servers. We have G723 pass-through working between the clients just fine, however calls fail when terminating with Asterisk itself (i.e. Voicemail) or out to the PSTN due to transcoding issues.

If it possible to build the config into our Asterisk servers so that calls between the softphones defaults to G723 pass-through, whilst all other calls (PSTN, Voicemail etc.) default to GSM as their preferred codec? Is there a way of getting Asterisk to be smart with Codec negotitation and figure out which codec the other end of the call is capable of before negotitating back to the Softphone with the selected codec? I assume you would have to do something in the dial plan? I saw the SIP_CODEC variable, but couldn't make it work.

Any advice would be very welcome!

Cheers,
Ray
