[asterisk-users] is g729 codec free? or under license???

[s m]

hello all,
i have problem in using g729 codec. my asterisk version is 1.8.22. when i
run "core show codecs" in asterisk, there is a g729 codec in the list so i
assume that i can use it for my channels. but connection can not be set
when i use it for my h323 channel.

i read somewhere that codec g729 is a commercial codec and i should buy its
license in order to use it. is it true? if yes, why is it listed in codecs
in asterisk??

thanks in advance,
SAM
