[asterisk-users] CODECS: Best practice question: Avoid transcode when calling out?
What is the current best practice to avoid transcoding on an outgoing call to a party whose codec preference is not known in advance? In other words, incoming calls are easy since codecs are negotiated from least-known (the remote party) to most-known (my endpoint) and my codecs can simply be preferred accordingly to match the remote. Outbound calls seem harder. Our endpoints always negotiate g.722 between themselves and Asterisk and then Asterisk must transcode to the preferred codec of the REMOTE party. Not ideal. It's easy if I'm calling to the PSTN--since I know in advance the preferences of my ITSP, but I'm stumped about how to avoid transcoding when calling a party whose codec preferences are not known in advance. Is there an elegant way to do this? -Karl -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] CODECS: Best practice question: Avoid transcode when calling out?
Hi Karl, that's funny you are asking this, am also currently looking at how to solve the g722 codec negotiation riddle, in my particular case to play nicely together with a KonfTel 300 IP conference phone. In other words, incoming calls are easy since codecs are negotiated from least-known (the remote party) to most-known (my endpoint) and my codecs can simply be preferred accordingly to match the remote. Look at setting the channel variable_SIP_CODEC - however it might or might not work depending on your version of Asterisk, see for example: https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=13243 Here's a dialplan snippet that might give you another hint or two. exten = 123,1,NoOp(-- Inbound read: ${CHANNEL(audioreadformat)} --) exten = 123,n,NoOp(-- Inbound native: ${CHANNEL(audionativeformat)} --) exten = 123,n,Set(WIDEBAND=0) exten = 123,n,Set(WIDEBAND=${REGEX(g722 ${SIPPEER(${SIPCHANINFO(peername)}:codecs)})}) exten = 123,n,ExecIf($[${WIDEBAND} = 1]|Set|_SIP_CODEC=g722) exten = 123,n,Dial(SIP/abc123) Please note the SPACE between ${REGEX(g722 and ${SIPPEER Outbound calls seem harder. Our endpoints always negotiate g.722 between themselves and Asterisk and then Asterisk must transcode to the preferred codec of the REMOTE party. Not ideal. Together with the g722 transcoding patch for Asterisk 1.4.17 it does not work out, unfortunately. Currently I cannot make a statement on a more recent 1.4 release. g722 patch: http://users.netplex.net/~andrew/asterisk/#g722 Older patch that I use for 1.4.17: http://users.netplex.net/~andrew/asterisk/g722-20080110.patch.gz However I can successfully employ setting _SIP_CODEC if in the example above instead of Dial() I do a MusicOnHold() - both with or without a preceeding ANSWER; without means early audio playing of the native g722 encoded MOH file. My snom starts out with alaw, and then we switch to g722. Is there an elegant way to do this? Consider the codec negotiation patch? I'd be interested to hear about your results! http://www.b2bua.org/wiki/AsteriskCodecNegotiationPatch https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=4825 Philipp -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] codecs and volume

[asterisk-users] Codecs negotiation
Hello everyone, I am trying Asterisk could manage codecs negotiations. I have some telephones that supports g723.1 and G711, while others only support G711. I would like, due to BW usage, that telephones supporting g723.1 used that codec in all calls between them but using g711 while connecting to old telephones. I have found a patch, but it seems to be for old versions of asterisk. http://www.rtpproxy.org/wiki/AsteriskCodecNegotiationPatch It is also suitable for me that asterisk took a look at sip.conf and decided which codec to use looking at supported codecs in every client (if it is easier). Do you have any idea? Thank you very much. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs? - Asked to transmit frame type 256, while native formats is 8 (read/write = 8/8)
Hi everyone, I have an issue which is kind of a catch 22 situation. I had outgoing calls to my new PSTN provider working perfectly. Then I started focussing on incoming calls. It seems that I can solve an error which gets my incoming calls working but that in turns means my outgoing calls dont work. Strange. Anyhow I was getting an error: Process_sdp: No compatible codecs! And from the SIP debug I could see that the incoming SIP INVITE was getting a sip response of 488 Unacceptable here from my asterisk server. After doing a bit of searching I determined that this might be the fault of the codecs particularly the G729 codec. So in the peer block that I have for my PSTN provider in my sip conf I specified allow=g729. I called my PSTN geographic number again and was delighted when the incoming calls worked. However when I next went to make an outgoing call (after having added in the allow=g729 line), I got an infinite loop of warnings: WARNING: chan_sip.c: 2520 sip_write: Asked to transmit frame type 256, while native formats is 8 (read/write = 8/8) WARNING: codec_gsm.c165 gsmtolin_framein: Huh? A GSM frame that isnt a multiple of 33 or 65 bytes long from RTP After those warnings I thought there might be a problem with the gsm codec so I commented the lines containing allow=gsm and still kept the line allow=g729 because as Ive said already incoming calls wont work otherwise (but outgoing will). This however just gave another warning: WARNING: chan_sip.c: 2520 sip_write: Asked to transmit frame type 4 while native formats is 256 (read/write=64/64). When I comment this line out again I am back to my original situation where outgoing calls work and incoming dont. Has anyone any idea how I can work around this?

When you have first allow=ulaw (prefered codec) all the calls to and from fxo works because the prefered codec is ulaw, then from fxo to phones using ulaw, no codec translation is made all the calls to pstn providers fails, again, because it seems asterisk gives preference to ulaw codec (the first list codec) so, the phones use ulaw, and is not possible to translate ulaw to g729 and viceversa?? im interested in knowing the reason too, any guidelines? regards On 1/10/06, Olivier Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The problem : an asterisk box with 2 fxo First fxo just receive calls from pstn (ulaw) Second fxo receive and send call to mobile network thru a sipbox(ulaw) Calls to pstn are sent to a pstn provider accepting only g729 Internal calls doesn't care of codecs All Uas have g729 (g729 is then pass-thru when needed) All Uas have ulaw(of course) If I have in [general] disallow=all allow=g729 allow=ulaw In this case: all calls to pstn providers works all calls to and from fxo fails because of : No translator path exists for If I have in [general] disallow= all allow= ulaw allow= g729 In this case: all calls to and from fxo works all calls to pstn providers fails because of : No translator path exists for ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users -- Su nombre es GNU/Linux, no solamente Linux, mas info en http://www.gnu.org; ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Hi all, We use asterisk as a local pbx and we connect to a pstn/sip provider for calls to pstn. Since the messages on asterisk are on gsm format, we need gsm, but to call pstn, we need g729 or g723.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth
Hi Friends, Something I'd like to shed some light on if possible - how is it that a single ISDN conversation only uses 64K for bidirectional communication (using ulaw, correct?), but on several occasions now have seen references to ulaw voip conversations using 64K per side of the conversation, plus packet overhead (http://www.zytrax.com/tech/protocols/voip_rates.htm - seems to be down now - plus other references) for a total of over 128K per ulaw 'full duplex' voice conversation?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth
If you include down + up, yes, it's actually about 150-160 using uLaw + IP/UDP/RTP/signaling overhead. But that's a little misleading, I think. 1/2 of that (~75-80) is down, 1/2 of that (~75-80) is up. So if you have, say, a 1.5Mbps down/384 up DSL connection, you can do up to 4 calls simultaneously. 80*4 = 320. You'd be using 320kbps down and 320kbps up, which is within your 1500kbps down / 384 kbps up. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. That analysis is right, however seldom will the math work out exactly like real world usage. In all likelihood, other dsl traffic will consume a part of that bandwidth and two or maybe three calls might be usable. Implementing Quality of Service (QoS) on the outbound data flow might increase the probability of having more usable simultanous calls though. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth
Yeah that makes perfect sense, and was the way that I was initially calculating bandwidth requirements and codec costs. I just found it odd that bandwidth was reported both in simplex and duplex. It just confused me (which doesn't seem to be too difficult, these days ;-) Thanks, Tim Dan Perik wrote: If you include down + up, yes, it's actually about 150-160 using uLaw + IP/UDP/RTP/signaling overhead. But that's a little misleading, I think. 1/2 of that (~75-80) is down, 1/2 of that (~75-80) is up. So if you have, say, a 1.5Mbps down/384 up DSL connection, you can do up to 4 calls simultaneously. 80*4 = 320. You'd be using 320kbps down and 320kbps up, which is within your 1500kbps down / 384 kbps up. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. - Dan Tim Pushor wrote: Of course - ISDN is bi-directional.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth
You are correct. Bandwidth is bidirectional. All those references mentioned in the thread may be misleading. However, the bottom line is that it does use 64Kbps up/down plus overhead. This does not mean that to transport a single conversation you need ~150Kbps. You simply need to make sure your upload and download capacity have at least ~75Kbps available. In the case of most standard DSL services (and even cable broadband) sold in the US, the service sold is Asymmetrical. For these scenarios, Dan's explanation should suffice. For most dedicated Internet services (such as T1, fractional T1s, Ethernet, etc), the capacity is Symmetrical. In the case of a full T1 of Internet service, you can assume you could transport ~20 simultaneous calls (~75Kbps x 20 = ~1500Kbps), which, unfortunately, turns out to give you less capacity than a channelized T1 or even a PRI using standard trunk services. I guess, at this point you need to evaluate codec use and a couple of other factors in order to maximize your capacity. - Waldo On Jul 18, 2005, at 3:58 PM, Dan Perik wrote: If you include down + up, yes, it's actually about 150-160 using uLaw + IP/UDP/RTP/signaling overhead.

I assume ISDN accomplishes this since the PRI is set to use channel 24 for signaling. Your 64K channels is data and the control overhead is sent on the signaling channel.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth
I've seen several references to 'simplex' ulaw using 64k + overhead and 'duplex' ulaw using 64k+overhead+64k+overhead (I wished that site was up). Coming from this page: http://voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Bandwidth+consumption, the following line strikes me: (from near the top of the page) ... So even if one voice call sets up two 64 Kbit RTP streams over UDP over IP over Ethernet... Also, other pages from the wiki seem to talk about this as well when computing bandwidth. Is it because there are 2 RTP streams that don't know anything about each other, hence the 2x64k? Why would ISDN be any different? Thanks, Tim BTW I am assuming that this has very little to do with the D channel in ISDN since the call has already been setup via SIP ..

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and * pass through...
Hello all, I came a cross a problem yesterday that I don't quite know how to solve. I am trying to use * to connect to net2phone, and have a net2phone MAX IP-10 connect to net2phone. From the settings on http://www.voip-info.org/ it was easy to get asterisk to connect to the network - acting like a net2phone device/user. Anyway the problem arose when attempting to call the MAX IP-10 device through the net2phone network. They seem to be using the G732.1 codec. I have in my settings in sip.conf allow=G732.1 or what ever flavour of the like and still I can not talk to the two devices. I googled a bit and came across the fact of * being able to do a pass through - well I was not successful and this subject is either simple or not well documented. The devices are using SIP and there is a bridge initiated, but there is no audio and no voice being passed through... I have tried connecting as the receiving device a GrandStrem Budge Tone-100 and still no luck. So all that I am inquiring is has anyone successfully done a pass through and if so can someone please guide me through some of the settings. I have set the [net2phone] with a canreinvite=yes - that a post on a forum also suggested, and that also did not work. On a separate issue: When the Grandstream Budge Tone-100 is connected on the internal network then the audio and the voice in both directions work fine. But when the device is connected on a separate network - ie on an other ADSL line, then the device doesn't send voice packets although is receives packets. I have opened up IPTABLES, to allow udp 5060 and udp 1:2 in both directions on any interface and the problem still persists. (SIP phone: Grandstream Budge Tone 100 connects to * and the call is answered by a Softphone X-Lite with all the codecs enabled. As far as I can tell thy both are speaking with a G711 codec ULaw/ALaw).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and * pass through...
Etienne, howzit I am not 100% sure about this, but Net2phone do not always use standard SIP as the protocol. They have their own proprietry protocol as well, so perhaps your phone is trying to talk on the proprietry protocol. For G723.1 passthrough, you just allow it, and it should work fine, as long as you do not try playing any voice prompts to the channel. good luck. regards Clive = Phone I.T. http://www.phonehome.co.za On 13 Apr 2005 at 8:52, Etienne Pretorius wrote: Hello all, I came a cross a problem yesterday that I don't quite know how to solve.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and echo
Hi all, I am noticing echo/jitter problems when going sip - asterisk iax (ALAW)- asterisk pstn depending on the codec I use. Both ULAW/ALAW works fine on the budgetone and ata286 but g726 only works well on the budgetone. Ilbc just doesn't work well with broken speech and echo issues. SIP to sip works fine no matter what codec so I am thinking it's either IAX or transcoding causing the issue.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs - Advantages
Hmmm, remember though that G.711u/a sends 64Kbit Frames, however it is not actually 64Kbit/call... We're not doing Circuit-switching here, we're doing packet switching. If you figure on IP overhead as well as the RTP information and of course SIP messages, then you add the 64Kbit of G.711u/a Payload you get around 80Kbit/sec Per user... that means on a Full T1 you only get 19 simultaneous calls, not 24... and on an E1 you would get around 25 simultaneous calls, not 32... And that's assuming that you have a very good SLA (or european equivalent) and that your latency is VERY low... I hope to god you use QoS on your router or your calls will sound like absolute crap... It's totally possible, don't be scared off by what I said, I'm even using * on a cable connection at home and it works just fine, you just need to do some preparation, it's a big change especially for the end users of the system... -Chris - Original Message - From: brian [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 19, 2004 11:44 AM Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs - Advantages If you have the bandwidth then use ulaw :) bkw -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:asterisk-users- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 19, 2004 12:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs - Advantages Hi, I'm planning to use a Asterisk with Digium E1 cards, I understand that using a codec such as G.729 can be very CPU demanding.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and pauses
Hi all My * implementation is working brilliantly with only one small fault left to kill. I'm using IAXTalk from Telappliant for my incoming/outgoing calls to the pstn network; if I set my codec to GSM everything works great - no pauses but quality is a bit poor. If it set the codec to alaw (I think I'm using the correct one - I'm in the UK) I get intermittent pauses on the call. Initially I thought it was just a connectivity thing but I get a latency of less than 10ms to iax.voiptalk.org and I'm using a 2mb leased line. To further ensure it wasn't something on the line I've disconnected everything except the * box, a 7960 phone. My phones are all 7960's using SIP. There is a X100P card in the server moh timing etc but it isn't connected to the pstn. The * box itself is a PIII 833 with 256MB. Not at all stressed as this is all it does. Any hints or tips would be really useful as I'm stumped now.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and call failure with Grandstream
I know that this issue has been discussed a lot on this list in regard to some of the recent CVS's. However, it has come up as an issue on an older release (CVS Aug 05, 2003) as well. I thought that a heads up was in keeping with the philosophy of the list. Here are the details: Call from GS via * to remote IAX to PSTN. Sound stream is established from PSTN to GS but no sound from GS to PSTN. By the way, calls from GS to the PSTN via * worked correctly. Only the IAX bridge failed. It turned out to be a codec problem. The fix is the same as well. Add to sip.conf [general] (or on a phone by phone basis): disallow=all allow=alaw allow=ulaw You may also need to enable additional codecs. Stephen R.

No. The only codecs that you will negotiate will be ulaw, alaw, and gsm, as specified in your config. 'show codecs' is informational only. It indicates nada, nothing, zip, zilch (get the idea?) about your configuration. Asterisk will use whatever codec is available on both sides, followed preferentially by the codec which has the least cost to translate. See the 'show translation' matrix. -Tilghman ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs for use with Cisco 7960 and ATA-186
Are there any other codecs that can be used with the 7960 and the ATA-186? I have been using the default gsm codec and wanted to see if I could make use of something a little less bandwidth intensive Kim Callis
RE: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs for use with Cisco 7960 and ATA-186
Actually, I found that both the 7960 and ATA-186 support several codecs So the question should have been which is the best codec to make use of?

I think that G.711 is the default codec that my system is using.

[Asterisk-Users] * + Codecs + Hardphones??
Hi, From what I have been able to work out * supports G.711 a+u, GSM and LPC-10 for VoIP calls. So far it seems that the Hardphones out there support G.711, G.729 and some times a few other codecs.. So the common denominator seems to be G.711, the problem with this codec is that it requires approx 64Kbps which is a little high for what I am trying to do.. So it looks like the best codec is the GSM codec as far and badwidth vs voice quality, but I can't seem to find which hard phones support the GSM codec or if * supports the G.729 codecs or others.. Which phones do the * user commumity find work the best?? and which codecs do you use??

You will find that G711 is fine on a local network, and asterisk does real well using IAX protocol and GSM codec. So if you are deploying enough phones to make it worth while to drop a * machine on the LAN with the hardphones you are set.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] * + Codecs + Hardphones??
For $10 a pop, I would buy 24 to cover upto a T1 (and I've already got my call into Greg). This is exactly what I'm looking for. I suspect nothing bad would happen if you went over, except for that pang of guilt you may feel until you ante up for it's use :-) I'm personally more interested in the performance of the codec (ie what kind of raw power will I need to run it, how many can I run at once on a decently powered box etc...)
