Yes, you can use proxy media, bypass media, or even regular mode if you don't transcode (special for g729). Proxy media is really a special hack that should only be used for T38 passthrough. If you are using it for other purposes, think about it some more.... > When an A-leg has negotiated a pass-through media codec, can the B-leg be > transcoded into a non-pass-through codec, and vice-versa ? think A-leg > incoming with a G.729 codec, and target for B-leg needs to be setup with a > GSM-codec, say That would require transcoding - which can't be done if the codec is pass-through. > Where in the developer's set of documentation are codecs discussed ?

Currently the only supported g729 solution is to use a digium board with mod_dahdi_codec. I don't have any info on a software based g729 solution. > On the same lines as (3) above, there is a codec dev template in the source > tree.
