Re: [Asterisk-Users] Pickup() h323
I have exactly oposite experience: I'm using in two sites one with callmanager (v4), one with gnugk gatekeeper and ci$co h323 gateways with ooh323 - caller id name is not go through, when calling from asterisk to callmanager, sending dtmf from callmanger to asterisk isn't funtional with oh323 - caller id isn't working, dtmf OK, but problems with oh323 registering to two gatekeepers, also seems, that oh323 isn't good maintained, look at bugtracker and last release date :-( original h.323 is working prety good for me on site with callmanager and on site with dual gatekeepers (except pickup via this channel, as I wrote at beginning, but maybe this be implemented soon ;-) PJ Dan Austin wrote: Better is subjective in this case. There's no doubt that chan_ooh323 has some warts. On the other hand it has NO external library requirements, and works out of the box with Cisco's Call Manager. One could argue that Call Manager is crap. Fine, that doesn't change the fact some of us are stuck with it. Chan_h323 did not work with CCM, and a query/bug report was dismissed, basically stating that Cisco was F'd up and the channel would not be updated to work with it unless funded. (fair, but not helpful) Chan_oh323 worked with CCM, but suffered from the external library requirements. Chan_ooh323 just worked.

I did not intend to get that ball rolling. Each of the H.323 channels have at least one area that they work better than the others. The key is to find out which one works better for your needs. As to your problem, I have nothing specific, but I suspect codec/bearer capability issues, which is one area of weakness in ooh323. We only use it for trunking to CCM and have no H.323 clients. I have had excellent results with running a debug build of chan_ooh323 and submitting the logs to the ooh323 developer list.

The problem was one-way audio, and when I asked if it was a known issue, or there were any work arounds I was told it was a known issue and the work around was to not use CCM. I do not recall seeing a note that the issue had been addressed and I did the only thing I could at the time, which was to look elsewhere for H.323. Again I am not trying to knock any of the H.323 channels. They each have their strengths and the system administrator should use the one that works best for them. And in case it is not perfectly clear, I appreciate your efforts on both the H.323 and SCCP channels.

The one thing nobody ever realizes is there there is very very limited interoperability in H.323.It is not any one particular channel drivers fault, it is the underlying H.323 stack and the recommendation passed down from the ITU - Which is not a specification, hence the problems everyone has with H.323. There was too much left open for interpretation. Again, everyone, stop blaming any one particular channel driver in Asterisk and start blaming H.323 itself. If for some crazy reason you still must run H.323, then you will always run into problems, no matter what H.323-based gear or software you utilize.
