HI Bruce Nick, Thank you for your information,
I bought 20 licences from Digium Inc. Paid $200. I do not understand why this give trouble.Is there are any way to get help from digium on this matter. Do you recommend to uninstall those files from digium. Then install files you mention. Thank you. LLoyd On 11/8/06, Bruce Nik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Yes, there is. I don't know why there are so much instruction on how to install those codec. In fact, I have been looking for an easy way to install these files myself but I could not find anything on how to do. The people at Asterisk irc help channel are not willing to help on this because they make money of the digium licenses. They even try to throw you off by saying it's impossible which is very disguising. Anyhow, this is how you can install those codes: Basically, you take the file (g729 or g723) that is compatible with your system and put it in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules. Reboot your system and BINGO....you have g729 and g723. You can check it by: show translation in Asterisk CLI (asterisk -r) ************************************************************************ Before downloading the codec module you need to verify what your processor type is, as to get a compatible compiled codec. From the Linux command type in: # cat /proc/cpuinfo Look specifically at the model name and the flags. The following is an example of the process that I am using. Process: 0 vendor_id: GenuineIntel cpu family: 6 model: 8 model name: Pentium III (Coppermine) stepping: 3 cpu MHz: 648.110 cache size: 256 KB fdiv_bug: no hlt_bug: no f00f_bug: no coma_bug: no fpu: yes fpu_exception: yes cpuid level: 2 wp: yes flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse bogomips: 1297.41 From this information we can see that it is a Pentium III processor and it is using sse. This is the 2 bits of required information that we need. If you don't see sse in your flag then the file you need must contain the words no-sse. Now go to *http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/* and select wither Asterisk version 1.2 or 1.4 depending on the version you are using. The files are named as codec_g72x-???-pentiumx.so So from the information above to obtain the G729 codec we need to get the file codec_g729-gcc-pentium3.so and for the G723 codec we need to get the file g723-gcc-pentium3.so The gcc represents the way the module was compiled. This is your most likely choice. To view the different type of compiled version look at this file* http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/README* Now that we know what file we need you can now download the appropriate file. Change folders to /usr/lib/asterisk/modules # cd /usr/lib/asterisk/modules Download the required file(s) For the G729 codec For Pentium III # wget http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/built-for-asterisk-1.2/codec_g729-gcc-pentium3.so For Pentium IV # wget http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/built-for-asterisk-1.2/codec_g729-gcc-pentium4.so For g723 codec For Pentium III # wget http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/built-for-asterisk-1.2/codec_g723-gcc-pentium3.so For Pentium IV # http://kvin.lv/pub/Linux/Asterisk/built-for-asterisk-1.2/codec_g723-icc-pentium4.so Restart asterisk and you are done. If Asterisk does not start then you may need to try icc files instead of gcc. ***************************************************************************************** Above ^^^ text is from Trixbox Without Tears by Ben Sharif ( http://dumbme.voipeye.com.au/trixbox/index1.htm) a very good source for Trixbox how to dos.
