Yes, device to device (remote to remote). As the phones we are using don't have 
transcoding capabilities, setting them to prefer g.729, calling another remote 
with g.729 still doesn't compress the data. 

Too bad OpenSBC doesn't support codecs, I could get to testing some things 
while waiting on 4.4.

That's easy enough to live with then.

Yup, sipx devs are fantastic at refining things for ease of use in time.

Are you saying that only calls to AA, VM, etc, would use the codec and not 
inter office calls? 
Maybe I'm misunderstanding inter-office. In my case, I mean remote users 
calling each other over the Internet. 
 
Anyone know what a reasonable release time frame might be for 4.4?
