Hi All

We have a strange issue with our hosted asterisk server running on Debian
Internal calls btween extensions using g729 give one way audio
As soon as we change the codec to ALAW the issues goes away.

Any ideas how to fix this?
Outbound calls via a trunk work fine with g729

Kind Regards

Unless you have serious bandwidth issues, just forget about g.729 and change
to a-law throughout. A-law is what the PSTN (in civilised countries) uses
anyway, so you won't need to transcode (which chews up processor resources
and risks compromising quality) for calls to and from the outside world.

If you really need to use g.729 and are outside the USA (therefore, beyond
the reach of software patents), there is a free version that you can use --
and this one, better than Digium's offering, comes with the Source Code so you
can be sure it isn't doing anything nasty behind the scenes.

But to be honest, you probably are better off just sticking with a-law.

OK, so there shouldn't be any licencing problems (unless for some reason your
Asterisk is wanting to use the paid-for g.729 aot the Free one. Look at the
CLI output very, very carefully to see if this might be happening).

Did it ever work properly? If your kernel, C library or some other
fundamental system component has been updated since you installed g.729, then
it might have been broken by the upgrade. Navigating to the folder with the
Source Code and re-running `make` followed by `make install` ought to fix it.


But why are you using g.729 anyway? What special reason have you for doing it
differently than the rest of the world?
