Re: [asterisk-users] is g729 codec free? or under license???
thank you everybody for your useful replies and so sorry to answer late. i understand what i need. first of all, i wanna to use pass through g729 codec (which is free). so i go to http://asterisk.hosting.lv/ to get g729 codec. i have freebsd 8.2 and asterisk 1.8.22 but there is no compatible codec for Xeon Intel in the list. it means that i can't use codec g729 on my system??? or can i use codec for another type of hardware for my system? anyone has any experience? thanks in advance SAM On Mon, Oct 7, 2013 at 5:04 PM, John Novack jnov...@stromberg-carlson.orgwrote: Darryl Moore wrote: Thank you Steve, and I read a bit more on the web on this subject including your own well reasoned page at http://www.soft-switch.org/**patents/index.htmlhttp://www.soft-switch.org/patents/index.html However, despite wide acceptance of the patentability of such codecs (unfortunately), whether they are in fact software patents or not appears to be a matter of opinion.

Re: [asterisk-users] is g729 codec free? or under license???
HI, You don't need a g729 installed in pass throw mode. if both ends have codec g729 you can just enable on both peers. and asterisk should pass the codec from 1 end to other. but make sure you are not doing transcoding of any type answering the call playing voice prompts etc. On Sat, Oct 12, 2013 at 9:52 AM, s m sam.gh1...@gmail.com wrote: thank you everybody for your useful replies and so sorry to answer late. i understand what i need. first of all, i wanna to use pass through g729 codec (which is free). so i go to http://asterisk.hosting.lv/ to get g729 codec. i have freebsd 8.2 and asterisk 1.8.22 but there is no compatible codec for Xeon Intel in the list. it means that i can't use codec g729 on my system??? or can i use codec for another type of hardware for my system? anyone has any experience? thanks in advance SAM On Mon, Oct 7, 2013 at 5:04 PM, John Novack jnov...@stromberg-carlson.org wrote: Darryl Moore wrote: Thank you Steve, and I read a bit more on the web on this subject including your own well reasoned page at http://www.soft-switch.org/**patents/index.htmlhttp://www.soft-switch.org/patents/index.html However, despite wide acceptance of the patentability of such codecs (unfortunately), whether they are in fact software patents or not appears to be a matter of opinion.

Re: [asterisk-users] Capture Media IP in CDR
hi,
you have not mentioned which cdr backend you are using.
peer ip is saved in variable CHANNEL(peerip).
if you are using mysql for cdr backend you can create a field in cdr table
(field name can b any of your choice)
in dialplan assign the value of CHANNEL(peerip) to you ip field and
asterisk will fill ip field.
if you name ip feild Peer_ip you can use this example.
same,n,Set(CDR(Peer_ip)=${CHANNEL(peerip)})

I am not proxying the media, but never the less I am forced to store
the source media IP in my CDR, for regulatory reasons. Asterisk gets
that information when the reinvite comes, but how do I store it?
If I don't figure this out my next email will be from Federal Prison.
Kindly help me stay away from those guys. Eventually we all need to
save that information or we shall not be able to stay in business.

Re: [asterisk-users] Capture Media IP in CDR
The CHANNEL() function has no idea about the media IP, and also SIP_HEADER(), since the media IP is not known until the call has been established and a reinvite has been received and dispatched. I am using of course, directmedia=yes and directrtpsetup=yes. Hence my question to the group. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

That information isn't available via a dialplan function or application; about the only place it is communicated is in some log messages when SIP debugging is enabled. I'm rather surprised at this requirement - when you say that your next e-mail will be from Federal Prison, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that you're referring to the United States government. Given that Asterisk is widely deployed in the U.S. and recording of remote and/or local media addresses have never been a requirement for CDRs - ever - I have to wonder, what is prompting this request?
