[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.

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. I've got about ten g729 licenses and never see any warning messages, but then again this is a small system and I don't think I could consume all of them if I tried. Alyed Tzompa wrote: I used g729 couple of times in the past and got the warning messages ONLY when I was trying to use more channels than the total amount of licenses I'd got. If you are sure you are using only one device that needs the license, I would suggest to check out how it is communicating with Asterisk. Also, if you have enough time try using the g729 with another soft / IP phone and see if you get the same result. Alyed --- I am not. I have one license and use i channel. It seems to detect the fact there are no more channels left and keeps warning me about it in case I want to use more. It is fine, but the warning is constant.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec problems
Hi, I wonder if VoIP providers consume two licenses when one calls via them? One license for my phone to the provider and one license when call is passed to the recepient. Is that possible?

This was mainly to get one of the local Australians VoIP providers working. Anyway, when I am trying to place calls to USA, it tries to use G.729 and I am getting continuous warning: 20:56:20 WARNING[6620]: codec_g729.c:170 g729tolin_framein: Out of G.729 Decoder Licenses! 20:56:20 WARNING[6620]: codec_g729.c:170 g729tolin_framein: Out of G.729 Decoder Licenses! 20:56:20 WARNING[6620]: codec_g729.c:170 g729tolin_framein: Out of G.729 Decoder Licenses! 20:56:20 WARNING[6620]: codec_g729.c:170 g729tolin_framein: Out of G.729 Decoder Licenses! And it keeps running like that. Call usually come through OK. If i try to use show g729 command, it shows that all codecs are in use. Well, this is fine, I am using one, but I do not want to see those warnings. Once is quite enough. Those continuos warnings make it impossible to se any other asterisk output.

I reviewed the code for that module after reading your original message, and confirmed that it will only generate that message if you try to create and use more g729 transcoder channels than you have licenses for. Do you have monitoring or anything else running on the channel that might cause another transcoder path to be needed? ___ --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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec problems
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. This might give you a starting point to figure out your problem. - Gabe - Original Message - From: Rudolf Ladyzhenskii [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Sent: Saturday, March 25, 2006 4:18 PM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] G729 codec problems Hi, all I have a license for G.729A codec from Digium.
