[Asterisk-Users] Re: PLEASE respond: how to get Asterisk to change coders on RTP handoff?? HELLO???

[Dan Miller]

So, when I get no comments on this at all, either here or on any of the forums, does that mean nobody knows what I'm talking about??  Or does nobody know the answer??  Or is it just a stupid question and nobody wants to bother telling me where to look??

It *is* a question that I have to answer somehow; I've read all through TFOT and see nothing relevant to this issue.  It's silly to spend $15000 on a G723 license just so I can play back menu messages from Asterisk (since the actual call decoding is done by the external boxes, which have already paid the licensing fees).

  I have a hardware FXO/FXS which handle my voip calls, and they support G723 internally.  Asterisk hands off these calls just fine, and everything works, as long as I don't want PBX menues available...  The problem is, once I want it to return messages, it will only return them as GSM... which is fine, since my FXO/FXS support multiple coders.  However, even though Asterisk lets me specify a list of valid coders, it will only use one...

  I want Ast to use GSM to playback messages, then when it hands off the call to the endpoints, it should tell them to use G723 in the RE-INVITE messages... I don't see any way to get it to do this; *is* there some way??
