[asterisk-users] g729 codec over SIP Trunk between CCM and Asterisk
Hello, My problem is, outgoing calls (from asterisk to CCM) work fine but incoming (from CCM to Asterisk) does not work because of CCM is trying to use g729 over SIP trunk. I have found that link after a quick search. Problem is the same as in link below (However my Asterisk version is 1.8.13) and solution seems to have H323 trunk between CCM and Asterisk for using g729 codec. The post was written in 2006. Is there any better solution since that time ?

Re: [asterisk-users] g729 codec over SIP Trunk between CCM and Asterisk
Thanks for reply Leandro. We have installed g279 codec in Asterisk box.Even if not so, there is no problem outgoing (from Asterisk to CCM) calls. But after i searched the issue, i figured out that CCM 4.x does not let g729 codec to pass through over SIP trunk. This is limited only in CCM. If we changed codec g729 into g711u (ulaw) then communication over SIP trunk go on perfectly. Because of CCM does not inject any packets encoded g729 over SIP trunk, i am not able to debug it. But i have tried that i am able to force my SIP phone suscribed Asterisk box to use g729 codec and get work successfully. 2013/1/17 Leandro Dardini ldard...@gmail.com 2013/1/17 Onur Cem Çelebi occel...@gmail.com Hello, My problem is, outgoing calls (from asterisk to CCM) work fine but incoming (from CCM to Asterisk) does not work because of CCM is trying to use g729 over SIP trunk.

I have two queries for you to help me. 1. How do i know when an outbound call is placed that it makes use of the g729 codec. when i use the command show g729 i get the following: 0/0 encoders/decoders of 4 licensed channels are currently in use 2. When i have g729 codec installed on my asterisk box, i cannot make simultaneous calls which i can do if i uninstall it. How can i make simultaneous calls with the codec installed?

If you purchased one license and are forcing that codec, then it makes sense that you can only have one call. If you install the g729.so that can be found on the internet, it will allow you to place as many G729 calls as you wish for testing. After you are satisfied (or unsatisfied) you can purchase more licenses (or not) to legally use G729 with as many simultaneous calls as you buy licenses for. Thanks and appreciate your response.

Well one of them should work fine ;) . I was not sure if it required .so extension ( i guess it doesnt ) anyway hitting tab can autocomplete or atleast give hints .

[asterisk-users] g729 codec
Hi everyone, Simple question that I haven't been able to find a direct answer to. We currently have call recording with our asterisk system. The files, I am assuming since that is the codec we are using, are being recorded in the g729 codec. Is there a way to listen to these calls, say on windows media player or another audio program? Or do I need to convert the files to a different format to listen to them outside of Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] G729 codec problems
I have a system that has had 5 G729 licenses for over a year and I've come to install the v31 G729 codec from the Digium ftp server but it won't see the license. Does anyone know how to get around this problem? It is registered and I do have newer systems running this v31 version of the codec but in the license file the product line is different. On the older system it says Product: Digium-G729 but on the newer systems it says Product: G.729 Codec. I've tried Digium support but had no reply and thought I'd try the list.

[asterisk-users] g729 codec help
Hi, We added more g729 licenses today that we bought from digium on Friday. Since we had previously installed their licenses and had them running we just ran the register command along with the new key that was given to us. After we restarted asterisk NONE of the g729's worked even though if we do a show g729 it shows the new correct total licenses. In the licenses folder we see both license files. What happens is that if we terminate calls to carriers who accept only the g729 codec we get a 503 service unavailable. I would appreciate any and all feedback so get the codec working before Monday.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec problems
I think I sort of solved the problem. It is related to Voipstunt provider. I tried it today with another provider and all is fine. Well, I get some warnings from G729 like: Jun 26 09:28:45 NOTICE[8440]: frame.c:179 __ast_smoother_feed: Dropping extra frame of G.729 since we already have a VAD frame at the end Bu nothing like before. Use Voipstunt and I have the problem. It seems that Voipstunt does use more than 1 lisence on a single call. Can someone check/verify that?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec problems
Or, could he be seeing an outstanding issue with counting (eg, start with 0 or 1)? Seems like that might be the case.

Type show g729 in the CLI. It should show something like this: 0/0 encoders/decoders of 1 licensed channels are currently in use This will show you how many licensed channels you have and how many are in use.

The difference between G.729 and G.729A is Annex A spends less time looking for the optimal representation of the voice. G.729 and G.729A are completely compatible. Annex B adds silence suppression.

Floating point executions use to take more time than useing fixed point calculations. With todays math coprocessors especially with SSE floating point calculations actually preform well on Intel x86 platform.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec
Nope. The floating point vs fixed point thing is something that has no effect on the ordinary user. It is a matter of the internal implementation of the codec, and the type of processors on which it can run. The only thing the ordinary user needs to know is that what is sent out and expected as input by these two codecs is the same.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec
Steve Thank you for the enlightenment, that explains allot and it even makes sense. So I take it that means that there is no other version as far as Asterisk is concerned; it only is designed to use G.729A, correct? Do you know if the data rate, kbps, is a constant or does it fluctuate? For example I have heard with a Avaya design if no one was speaking it could get down to practically nothing while holding a line open. Does Asterisk have the ability to use less then 8 kbps with the G.729?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 Codec+packet loss concealment
Hi From what I have heard, Asterisk does not allow for iLBC to take advantage of the lost packet concealment. I understand this has something to do with the jitter processing. If lost packet concealment doesnt work with ilbc, I can assume the same applies to other codecs who claim to have this feature. Hopefully this will be fixed sometime soon, especially for us folks with less than ideal IP throughput.

For iLBC's lost packet concealment to work, Asterisk would have to start calling the decoder with a NULL at the point when the missing packet shold have arrived. Can't say for sure for SIP, but I'd guess that its the same.

I am not disputing it but I'd like to have it in the archives for one, but also to verify the claim too. I am the source for that statement. Is that a problem? ;-) My qualification is having worked on the IAX2 jitter buffer, consequently having studied how audio flows from the received frames through the jitter buffer and then via ast_translate() into the codec. To use the iLBC codec's lost packet concealment, you must call the codec every 20msec (or whatever). If you have a new frame, you pass it - and you get that back decoded. If you haven't, you call iLBC_decode anyway, passing mode=0 and get a reconstructed frame back. In Asterisk, bridging is self-clocked by the incoming frames. So unless a frame arrives, nothing happens. Each arriving frame gets pushed through the codec decode function. But if a frame doesn't turn up... well, then... nothing will happen. You can confirm this by examining codecs/codec_ilbc.c where you will see that there is only one call to iLBC_decode(), and that call has a hardcoded mode=1. So Asterisk will never use the iLBC packet loss concealment capability. At the moment, anyway - this can arguably be fixed, but its not a trivial fix.

It's certainly something I didn't know before and it really takes out an advantage of using iLBC over something like GSM -- the former has lower bandwidth requirements but the increased processor overhead and lag might be causing another problem I've been seeing.

Bandwidth at the mentioned test server is 256MB and usage consumption was only 20-25kbps during the test. Packet loss is at the ISP (confirmed by them). I attribute the bad audio on iLBC due to Steve's explanation that Asterisk does not do any loss-concealment, but a direct call between 2 Sipuras does (no Asterisk involved). The SPA manual clearly states that The SPA applies an error concealment algorithm to alleviate the effects of packet loss. We have tested this under many conditions of packet loss and the SPA sounds great up to about 10-12% packet loss. Even at 20% loss you can carry a convesation that sounds like a mediocre cellphone call.
