Hi,

Consider the following case, A sends an offer with codec G.729 only, and B does 
not support it, what is the best response code? 415/488 is not for this case 
from rfc3261.

21.4.13 415 Unsupported Media Type

   The server is refusing to service the request because the message
   body of the request is in a format not supported by the server for
   the requested method.  The server MUST return a list of acceptable
   formats using the Accept, Accept-Encoding, or Accept-Language header
   field, depending on the specific problem with the content.  UAC
   processing of this response is described in Section 8.1

21.4.26 488 Not Acceptable Here

   The response has the same meaning as 606 (Not Acceptable), but only
   applies to the specific resource addressed by the Request-URI and the
   request may succeed elsewhere.

   A message body containing a description of media capabilities MAY be
   present in the response, which is formatted according to the Accept
   header field in the INVITE (or application/sdp if not present), the
   same as a message body in a 200 (OK) response to an OPTIONS request

And rfc3264 is not clear on this neither,

   An offered stream MAY be rejected in the answer, for any reason.  If
   a stream is rejected, the offerer and answerer MUST NOT generate
   media (or RTCP packets) for that stream.  To reject an offered
   stream, the port number in the corresponding stream in the answer
   MUST be set to zero.  Any media formats listed are ignored.  At least
   one MUST be present, as specified by SDP.

Please share your comment.

Best regards,

/Kaiduan
