[asterisk-users] G729 license key registration
Hi, I have trouble re-registering a G729 license for Asterisk (bought 6 years ago) My license looks like: 10D2X----X Tried to re-register the codec according to the http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/codec_g729/README document, but the register failed with this error message: You selected 5, G.729 Codec Please enter your Key-ID: 10D2X----X This product key cannot be registered! Please verify you entered the correct product key. Server response: ERR - Invalid prefix, should be 'G729' The program can communicate correctly with digium`s server. Tried with the G729 prefix, but it seems completely wrong: You selected 5, G.729 Codec Please enter your Key-ID: G729-10D2X----X This product key cannot be registered!

[asterisk-users] G729 license counting
Hello, How many licenses to buy?? : From what we understood from digium website, we must buy as many licenses as the number of maximum simultaneous calls using G729 Codec we wish to make.

That's not correct. You need one G729 license for each transcoding instance. If you have two SIP channels and both are G729, then no license is required. If you have two SIP channels, and one is G729 and the other is ulaw, then a license is required.

Re: [asterisk-users] G729 license counting
You need a license when ever you transcode the audio From any codec to G729. or G729 to any codec you will need a license for each instance. If you call into your system from a provider that uses G729 you don't need a license If you check your voicemail that is saved on your system in GSM format then you need a license to transcode the file from GSM to G729 Best regards, Al Bochter Bochter Services http://www.BochterServices.com/?t=Email Douglas Garstang wrote: That's not correct.

I might need chan_g729.so but only to negotiate with my VoIP provider, the truth is that i will be only passthrough. Would it be legal to install Freeg729 just to Say to Asterisk I'm able for G729 and then bridge calls to my VoIP provider using G729? In fact i'm not using the codec to translate any audio.

When your phones acces to voicemail or to an IVR into the asterisk then a G729 license is used so Asterisk is transcoding.

I have looked at the code and there doesnt really seem to be a way to do this under the current model ... You can do some stuff for some channels, sip for example has a recirect, but that gets into the nitty gritty of a channel driver and codecs should be free from channel specifics (in my opinion anyway). I am trying to work on a cheaper g729 implementation that relieves this problem as well as a bunch of other issues that may be present.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] g729 license
Actually called Digium with this exact question last week. They said that you can register the new license on the new server provided that you ony registered it once before. They said there is no unregister script to unregister the license from the old server, however. If you have already used up your 2 registrations, you will need to contact Digium for assistance on this. I also asked if leaving the keys on my dev. box would cause a conflict (also was pretty clear that I wanted to be in compliance with their license agreement) and the lady said there was no problem and leaving the old keys on the dev. box would not cause a conflict.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] g729 license
Yes same provess you did to register the license in the first place. You can rereg the license I think 3 times or so before you have to call Digum and have them manually change what your license is tied to. ___ 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] g729 license
Here is how Digium license works. 1)You are allowed to register 2 times , for which digium license server does not object. 2)If you want to register it a third time on a different server, send an email to digium and they increment (or decrement the registrations, in the real sense) the number, so that you can register it again. Send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with your license details and they will increment it for you.

[Asterisk-Users] G729 license
Hi, all! Will asterisk use G729 license if both ends have support for G729 and no transcoding needed? So, the scheme: remote phone G729Asterisk with G729 codeclocal phone G729 As I understand, in this situation everything can be passed through, and is so on default asterisk installation, but we require transcoding, because most our phones are X-lites on LAN and use GSM codec. Remote link is voipexchange.ru and prefer G729 since it's cheapest there and there are many directions where other codecs are not available or too expensive. So, another question is will all this transcoding between GSM and G729 work for 30 calls at the same time on Celeron 1700 (PIV) ?

I know that during the Registration that the file /var/lib/va-certificate is created. Maybe this will help, file is encrypted so it don't offer much information.

Hello all, I would like to just verify where to purchase the G729 license for Asterisk.

The list says license is taken from Digium, does that apply also if I have Dialogic cards on my *?
