Thanks :)

Only encoding and/or decoding requires a license.  If you are just
pushing bits you dont need a license.  This is according to
http://www.sipro.com the people who do the licensing for G.729.  There
is no difference in a license for decode only or encode only vs both.  

They also do G.723.1 licensing and with G.723.1 there is a difference in
licensing cost for decode only or encode only vs both.  So you would see
a savings if you were writing an app that only recorded for example.
