[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.4.0 (release) and G.729

[Carlos Alperin]

Ok,

I realize that by mistake I put the old codec_g729a.so instead of the one
belonging to the 1.4 version. (However it worked on the beta).

As soon as I changed it, now I got this on the /var/log/asterisk/messages

However in core show translation I get

And still nothing in the CLI

There is no more references to g729 as it was on the past. And it seems that
there is no translation codec also.
