 Posted: Fri Mar 21, 2014 11:39 am Post subject: [asterisk-users] ast_writefile: No such format 'h261', yet h |
 |
|
Built asterisk 11.8.1 on a Debian VPS. Testing using ekiga.
If h261 is checked in ekiga's video format list I have video, and
mouse over the video window shows it to be using h261.
But then I get the following lines a dozen or more times in the CLI:
[Mar 21 16:25:32] WARNING[31818][C-00000010]: file.c:1241
ast_writefile: No such format 'h261'
The problem is that I can't seem to get h263 or h264 to show video.
They are checked in 'make menuconfig'.
./configure output shows h323.h to be missing.
If I install everything I can find to do with h323 using apt-get then
configure throws an error about not finding ptlib-config and halts.
I did search for this ptlib-config and found some old ML posts
reporting the same thing. I didn't find a cure though unfortunately.
I tried installing ptlib and openh323 from source but make in ptlib
errored out with something that I couldn't fathom out.
Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.
-Dave

Ekiga can do SIP. Maybe try that? And set/prioritize the codec in
ekiga to desired codec, not h261.

I am using SIP. I've tried all sorts of ordering/checking/unchecking.
The problem seems to be related to not having h323 installed.

H.323 is a communications protocol like SIP. H261 is a codec like ulaw or gsm. You do not need H323 unless you are using the H323 protocol INSTEAD of SIP.

I see. In Ekiga video codec window they are listed like:
[ ] h261 90kHz H.323. SIP
etc.
Which is what I'm going by. The address that I'm connecting to /is/ a
sip: address. I assumed from the 'H.323' that it was needed. If that's
not the case, then something else is missing for the codecs to not be
built.

Ok so your all SIP. Find the command to show the codecs for your
release. The wiki has info to point you in the right direction. For
old 1.4 releases, I set the codec in the sip.conf file peer. Also try
another SIP video phone maybe on android?

core show codecs shows all 4 loaded:
200001 video h261 (H.261 Video)
200002 video h263 (H.263 Video)
200003 video h263p (H.263+ Video)
200004 video h264 (H.264 Video)
Unfortunately my android phone only has a camera on the back so it is
useless for video conferencing. I will give linphone a try to see if
it's any better.

Well linphone doesn't help. It doesn't even see my video device...
