[Asterisk-Users] Codec G729 no longer works.

[Jason A. Kates]

I upgraded my server from Fedora Core 4 to Fedora Core 5.

I was wondering if anybody else has run into the problem and know's the
fix?

I recompiled asterisk and if I don't have
the /usr/lib/asterisk/modules/codec_g729a.so
file in place it works.

I use or used to use the licensed G729 Codec from Digium.

This is the error message from asterisk -vvg:
 [app_playback.so] => (Sound File Playback Application)
  == Registered application 'Playback'
 [app_dumpchan.so] => (Dump Info About The Calling Channel)

no luck.
