[Joshua Colp (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-21184?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=203976#comment-203976 ] 

Joshua Colp commented on ASTERISK-21184:
----------------------------------------

Yes on rejection. As for the rest:

I think it's premature and not worthwhile to modify things to be less static. We'll end up hurting performance, and when the core finally does become aware of multiple media streams it'll most likely be done in such a way where it won't hurt performance. As it is modifying things down the line should be pretty easy in that regard. As for your comment about SDP media type handlers this is true - if the handler isn't fetching configuration from the endpoint to know. How to actually decide I think should be left up to the media type handler. Take video - do we need videosupport=yes? No. If a video codec is configured, then video support is on.

> Currently, {{chan_gulp}} only supports audio. While that's nice, we're going to eventually want to have video and fax. And text (why not).
> Note that while it has larger implications than just the channel driver, the structure of the objects should allow for multiple media streams of a particular type. The actual creation of the media streams can bail if someone requests multiple types, but if the core ever supports such a concept the channel driver should be ready to accept it.
