[asterisk-users] * 1.8: cannot load g729 free codec (on 1.4 it worked!)

[Bryant Zimmerman]

To my knowledge there is currently no free version of the g729 codec. There 
were some spec builds but those were just for testing if I recall 
correctly.  Each version of the codec that we have always gotten has been 
compiled for each version of asterisk. I would just buy the Digium licenses 
for the codec and not mess with it. That way you are legal and have support 
if you need it.

I'm going to guess you aren't going to get a lot of help on a list
hosted by Digium on how to use a potentially illegal codec...

That said, "ast14" in the filename might signify what the problem is.
The APIs likely changed for modules between 1.4 and 1.8.
