The x264 library should be able to do transcoding but its license is not compatible with FS and some of the x264 developers are not interested in releasing it under a dual license. > > Meanwhile, would it be feasible to do some video transcoding using > external software (vlc?) with socket connections from-to FS? A guy I talked to in #x264 on FreeNode claims to be doing this, but not in a VoIP scenario. If you don't want to reinvent the wheel you probably have to create a wrapper for your socket interface to interface with x264. Please share your progress if you do so. If all else fails you could have a look at these to bridge the video call to PRI http://www.mirial.com/products/PSE_3G_Gateway.html http://www.radvision.com/Products/3GProductsApplications/SCOPIA3GVideoGateway/ And no, I do not know if they work :-) > > Thanks, > François. > _______________________________________________ > Freeswitch-users mailing list > Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org > http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users > UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users > http://www.freeswitch.org _______________________________________________ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org
