You are right, there are a lot of shortcomings in SDP-handling in all trunks, branches and releases of Asterisk.

There was once a branch called Videocaps, with the ambition to get fully working sdp-handling of video in Asterisk. Including relation of sdp on both sides of a call as you ask for. It worked fine for its purposes, but is now outdated because it was not fully integrated in any Asterisk trunk.

You can read about the history in
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+video

The result is what you describe. Inconsistent SDP handling, with parameters, m-lines etc appearing without real reason and correlation between the legs of a session.

One apparent problem is when you have calls without audio. That case really need a thorough revision.

Sorry for not offering a solution, other than going back to the Videocaps branch and losing a lot of other good improvements in Asterisk.

I am having a problem with a Cisco phone and Video Support.

It seems the SDP does not get parsed correctly; Perhaps there is a pass through mode in Asterisk for the SDP to get passed as is? Sort of like proxy mode.

I tried a few scenarios; But without much success.

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

David.
