[Asterisk-Users] G729, x-pro, and codec ordering

[Rodolfo Grave]

I'm crazy here trying to make X-Pro use ONLY g729, and you're struggling 
to make it not to use it :)...

Can you please indicate what's your config for X-Pro and sip.conf?

This is mine:

X-Pro:
g729 is the only enabled codec.

sip.conf:
[12345]
type=user
username=12345
secret=12345
nat=no
host=dynamic
reinvite=no
canreinvite=no
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=g729a
allow=g723.1
allow=g726
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
context=sip_default

And this is the message that asterisk shows when I try to dial from X-Pro:

*CLI> Dec 21 18:02:49 WARNING[2375]: chan_sip.c:2764 process_sdp: No 
compatible codecs!
Dec 21 18:02:50 NOTICE[2375]: chan_sip.c:7295 handle_request: Unable to 
create/find channel


As soon as I enable GSM or ulaw everything goes fine... I have the 
license for g729 installed. This is the output of "show g729" in the * 
console:

0/0 encoders/decoders of 1 licensed channels are currently in use

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

RODOLFO
