Trying to configure Asterisk 11 Cert with G722.1C. I have installed the latest binary for Siren14:
srv-echo*CLI> siren14 show version 
Digium Siren14 Module Version 11.0_1.0.5 (optimized for opteron_sse3_64)



According to this list post in 2012 Asterisk supports G.722.1 Annex C (also known as Siren14), and this can be configured in a config file as either 'g7221c' or 'siren14':

However when setting allow=g7221c Asterisk will throw the following error:


[Mar 27 00:32:39] WARNING[1950]: frame.c:821 ast_parse_allow_disallow: Cannot allow unknown format 'g7221c'
[Mar 27 00:32:39] WARNING[1950]: chan_sip.c:31786 reload_config: Codec configuration errors found in line 9 : allow = g7221c



The setting for allow=siren14 does work. The issue is the Polycom VVX600 phones do not support Siren14, rather the G722.1C implementation. The module was loaded properly as well:

When trying to setup a call with just allow=siren14 the VVX600 would offer this:

The Polycom RealPresence Trio 8800 however does support Siren14, and calls do work:

Transcoding from G722 to Siren14 did also throw this error when using jitterbuffer going to a VVX600:


[Mar 26 13:16:51] WARNING[51171][C-00000bc4]: abstract_jb.c:284 ast_jb_put: SIP/0004F-000013bd received frame with invalid timing info: has_timing_info=0, len=0, ts=0, src=lin16tog722




Any help would be appreciated.
