[Ekiga-list] G729 codec

[Michael]

Craig:


 


Forgive my limited knowledge in the workings of Asterisks
and licensing. Currently there are Windows based soft phones with G729 that
work on Asterisk. In order to make this work we needed to purchase license for
G729 to run on Asterisks and accept calls made from the soft phone.


 


What I am personally looking for is to have a similar setup,
but on Xubuntu in Linux. What type donation would need to be made so that I can
run on my Xubuntu install a G729 conversation through Asterisks?

Are you saying that you want to use the Asterisk G.729 license with 
Ekiga? This is not possible, for legal reasons.

It is definitely possible to implement G.729 as a plugin codec for OPAL 
that will work with Asterisk. This will be available once the IPP codec 
package is releases.
