My understanding is that if the codec type matches on each leg of the call then
Asterisk is using "pass through". The PBX simply has to relay the RTP packets
unchanged from one device to another. If you are going from a phone using
codec tupe A to codec type B, Asterisk must perform a conversion which requires
support for both codecs.

Hi Clif,


My experience with G.729 and asterisk is not good.

My first registration was good, it worked. Then I bought more license and
tried to upgrade it, it blew everything off. Still waiting Digium support to
give me a helping hand.

If you use pass-through feature then I guess you are fine. I have SIP users
going to h.323 g/w and I need g.729. So now I have it in pass-through mode,
I think that requires less CPU overhead and I do not have to mess with
licenses.

Cheers

SW

I am thinking about using the G729 codecs on my endpoint devices and
purchasing some G729 licenses for Asterisk but I have several questions:

1. Which G729 codec is sold by Digium for Asterisk, G729, G729A, B...I?
2. If I have G729A on one end and G729B on the other, are they compatible?

I have looked all over the place for question 2, but without buying the
ITU docs
I cannot seem to find this answer.  I know that G729A is low complexity
which
seems to be what Cisco 7960's use but I have some others that support G729B
which has comfort noise and reduced transmission during silence.  If
anyone knows
how the different G729 codecs interoperate I would be eager to know.
Thanks.
