[asterisk-users] CODECS: Best practice question: Avoid transcode when calling out?

2010-02-16 Thread Karl Fife
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

Re: [asterisk-users] CODECS: Best practice question: Avoid transcode when calling out?

2010-02-16 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
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!

[asterisk-users] codecs and volume

2009-12-29 Thread Ron
Hi,

Does using a different codec affect the volume of the voice?

i was testing g711 and g729,  voice seems to be softer on g729 compared 
to g711. sorry not really familiar on how codecs work.

regards
Ron

[asterisk-users] Codecs negotiation

2009-12-01 Thread Ignacio
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.

[asterisk-users] Codecs with MixMonitor (,a) option

2009-10-27 Thread Miguel Molina
Hi all,

Another simple question: does it make sense to use the append option in 
MixMonitor (,a) when the codec is gsm? Or it works only when the codec 
is an uncompressed one like ulaw, alaw or slin?

Thanks,

Hi Eric,

I'm confused on where I would put this?

I'm also confused on how this would help with external calls (which we
want to be g729) vs internal calls to voicemail (which appear to need
to be g711)?

Thanks a ton!

I believe that this requires a separate g729 codec instance.
Alternatively, encode files as g729 off-line (e.g: using the convert

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs? - Asked to transmit frame type 256, while native formats is 8 (read/write = 8/8)

2006-03-16 Thread Aisling








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?



Many thanks in advance,

Aisling.

Could be good to have Ssterisk making a match between codecs in General and
the context used to make a call
But definitiely, Asterisk choose g729 even if I am in the zap context

Any idea, help is welcome.

Olivier

Doing in the console show translation i can see that it seems not be
possible to translate from any to g729 codec, or from g729 to any. So, let
me try to find a reason for this.

 When you have first allow=g729  (preferred codec)
all the calls to pstn providers work because the phones and asterisk agree
to use g729, so no codec translation is done. all the calls to and from fxo
fails because no translation can be made from ULAW to g729, and from g729
(phones) to ulaw. then asterisk is not smart enough to realize that can ask
the phones to use ulaw (i assume the phones support ulaw) to not use
translation to call the fxo???

 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?

[Asterisk-Users] codecs

2005-11-09 Thread Olivier Taylor
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.

How can we enable both codecs to be able to call pstn and hearing voicemail
messages for example?

Any idea is welcome.

You simply need to have g729/g723 codecs.  Asterisk comes with gsm by

If you bridge the two servers with SIP it will be fine.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] codecs order

2005-08-16 Thread Erik Versaevel
That should be controllable by a weight, for example 2 peers:

A -- G729, G711
B -- G711, G729

What's currently happening is that * starts transcoding between the two

peer A so that the codec of choise at both sides becomes the preffered
choise of A (G729) on both sides so there won't be any transcoding.
This would allow for some nice things as fax passtrough (A and B has to
use G711 then, but if the weigted A says G711, B would use G711 to).

hi,

i have this topology

asterisk1,asterisk2 allow (g729,alaw)
sip client prefer g729, then alaw

can you someone describe codec negotiation when call for sip client arrive

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth

2005-07-18 Thread Tim Pushor

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?


Thanks

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth

2005-07-18 Thread Rich Adamson
 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.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and bandwidth

2005-07-18 Thread Waldo Rubinstein
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.

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.

Actually, everything I have seen is around 80K full duplex for a uLaw
channel with overhead.  That is point to point...

ISDN, like T1, is full duplex.  So your 64K channel is 64K in each 
direction, up and down.

Thats what I thought as well, so I was wondering why ISDN is 64K, but 
VOIP RTP/ulaw has been documented to be 64K per direction + packet 
overhead (132K+)
   



ISDN is 64K per direction too, on a synchronous link i.e. 64K in both
directions.

I guess if you packetise etc then you've got to worry about both
directions and the bandwidth to supoort it ...

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 ..

Hi all,
I am trying to make a call from an X-Pro with only G.729 codec enabled to another with both G.711 and g.729. The Asterisk version is 1.0.3 and canreeinvite is set to Yes. What happens is that I get an 403 - Forbidden response and setting verbose 10 in Asterisk I can see the message:

If I do the same when both softphones have only G.711 set, everything works fine. It seems that Asterisk tries to use the first codec in SDP and ignores others. Does this make sense?
Thanks in advance.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and * pass through...

2005-04-13 Thread Etienne Pretorius
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

to * and the call is answered by a Softphone X-Lite with all the codecs

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.

 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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and * pass through...

2005-04-13 Thread Etienne Pretorius




Clive, cool - winter is getting quite near ova here...

Well, how would I find out what is happening - I mean how do I know
what * is connecting with to net2phone. 
	"...They have their own proprietry protocol..."

I thought it was because of the G723.1 codec and passthrough - but the
I must take the voice prompts way.
:-) 
(Didn't thought that it'll cause a problem - just the warnings and
notices but continue still...) Thank you for that tip.
   "...For G723.1 passthrough, you just allow it..."

---
So that is in "sip.conf"
[general]
disallow=all;
allow=G723;
allow=ulaw;
allow=alaw;
allow=gsm;

 (some text later)

[net2phone]
 (some text)
canreinvite=yes;
 (some text)

Sources for net2phone:

http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20settings%20Net2phone
 http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Net2phone

PS - I do get a frame error about expecting 4 getting 256 when * is
trying to initiate to call through to net2phone device MAX IP-10 through
 the net2phone network - could be that protocall you were talking
about or have I completely missed the plot?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Codecs and RealTime

2004-12-15 Thread Matthew Boehm
Ha. Fixed this.

Drop the disallow column.
Then readd that column 'before' allow.

Then it will work. The problem was that the disallow column came after the
allow column, so the allow stuff was being procssed first then the
disallow=all, which caused no codecs to be available.

You can have them in both locations.

If in the ast_config, that will apply the allow/disallows to all sip
clients. Use them in sip_buddies to specifcy for specific clients.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and echo

2004-11-02 Thread Dee Lowndes
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. Any idea's/

Everything is perfect when i'm using it from right to left. From left to

I played around with codeces but no change.

Does anybody know, what I possibly am doing wrong?

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs - Advantages

2004-07-19 Thread matiaspinedo
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. What are the real advantages of using a codec 
such as G.729 ? Bandwidth only ? Using no compression wouldn't increase the 
scalability of my asterisk PBX ? This is considering I have no bandwidth issues in my 
network.

Thanks

 using a codec such as G.729 can be very CPU demanding. What are the real
 advantages of using a codec such as G.729 ? Bandwidth only ? Using no
 compression wouldn't increase the scalability of my asterisk PBX ? This is
 considering I have no bandwidth issues in my network.

 Thanks

Yes, I don't have any bandwidth issues, so I could use 2 Mbps for 30 calls. I do have 
issues with processing CPU capacity. Is g711 CPU intensive as g729 ? I understand g729 
is very CPU intensive.

If you dont have bandwith issues, use g711, with 2 mb bandwith you can pass
30 calls, aprox.

G729 compress from g711 64 kbps to g729 8 kbps

2004-07-19 Thread Chris Shaw
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...

Is this bascially setting your bandwith value = high inside of iax.conf?

Or is there another place to designate the codec?

Actually besides from the best sound quality it's also not heavy on the CPU or 
bandwidth. It's actually better than any of the other.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and pauses

2004-06-23 Thread Matt
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.

Thanks

Matt

I've been having similar problems to you. I found after reading an
unrelated post, about the Jitterbuffer option in 
iax.conf, setting this to yes has made things much better.
Out of interest what have you set for your 
dropcount 
maxjitterbuffer
Maxexcessbuffer


Now the problem I have is that telappliant have lost one of there external
routers so I can't connect at the moment :-)
DOH!

What is it with networks breaking today, first Dilbert and now
Telappliant??? :-) 
Probably got something to do with the summer solstice, laylines etc :-

Just tried turning on the jitterbuffer, but I will have a play, as I do

I'll also have a play once Telappliant is back up and post the results.

then it does the same for libgsm.a

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and more analog lines?

Hi! 
Are the GIPS codecs now implemented with the Asterisk? 

If I need more analog lines, say around 30, what's the 
easiest way doing it? I checked the Mediatrix box with
24 connections, maybe that would be a good (and rel. cheap)
way to go? Any other suggestions? The ports has to 
support fax machines.

[Asterisk-Users] Codecs and call failure with Grandstream

2003-11-11 Thread Stephen R. Besch
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.

[Asterisk-Users] codecs questions

Hi!

I have some question about the use of codecs in sip.conf

I have that lines in sip.conf:

disallow=all
allow=gsm
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw

when i use show codecs:

localhost*CLI show codecs
   1 (1   0)  G.723.1
   2 (1   1)  GSM
   4 (1   2)  G.711 u-law

  524288 (1  19)  H.263 Video

My questions are:

1) What is the best configuration to use with fwd?

2) my sip.conf is correct? I can make calls to fwd but i have problems to
listen to people that calls me.

3)Asterisk is using the G.723.1 as the first choice?

4) I have to configure my phones with the same codec that asterisk is using
or the interoperable option in the snom phone is correct?

Thanks

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.

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? According to the literature, they support G729, G723.1 and G.711
u-law/a-law.

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

Hi,
For local connection to Asterisk (LAN), G.711 is the best option.

2003-07-23 Thread Kim C. Callis
I think that G.711 is the default codec that my system is using. At my
home office I am running through a DSL connection with a Cisco ATA-186,
and I notice that when I call to my office which are 7960, I get
problems with the office hearing me, sound issues, and other things... I
thought that I should try to use a low bandwidth codec that is less than
64k.

[Asterisk-Users] * + Codecs + Hardphones??

2003-03-27 Thread WipeOut .
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??

Thanks..

G729 is currently not available due to patent and license issues. 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. Otherwise you might want to look at the Snom
phone since it supports GSM.

You can purchase G.729 from Digium at $10/channel.  Contact Greg Vance

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...)

That's my question exactly... How many concurrent calls can I run over
G.729 before I have to go out and buy a bigger processor?  Does anyone
have some data?  I've heard rumors on IRC, but I'd rather have some

(Maybe I'll have to try it myself!  Mark, is it possible to get the

Not trying to be difficult, but is that a purchase or a time-bound

Just curious.  I'm very interested in using it, but the $$ commitment is 
something of a question.
