[Freeswitch-users] G729 transcoding workaround

2009-08-17 Thread Justin Miller
To overcome the G729 transcoding issue with voicemail, I'm using an Audiocodes Mediant 1000 for transcoding. Our SIP trunk provider and all of our phones use G729 exclusively. When a call needs to go to voicemail, the call is bridged to the M1000, which transcodes to G711, and returns the call t

You have a few choices. If you can hold out until g729 licensing is available in FreeSWITCH then that's a viable option. If not then you'll need to go the hardware route. Go to wiki.freeswitch.org and search for "mid_dahdi_codec" and you can learn more about the details. Essentially you can

Hi Gabriel, The problem I see is that g729 is protected by very expensive patents. If FreeSWITCH were to encode their sound files in g729, they would have to pay a base fee of at least 10 or 15 thousand dollars (that's last time i checked, and i don't recall if this is a yearly payment or not), p
