Licensing

The use of this module, and the G.729 Annex A codec it enables, is covered by patents and could be invoiced retroactively. Please contact Escaux for more information if you'd like to use G.729 Annex A.

Service Assurance

To verify that the module is installed corrrectly and in use, run the following command in an Asterisk-1.2x console:

show translation recalc 10

Or in a Communication Server 2 or higher console:

core show translation recalc 10

These commands will return a matrix with the available codecs listed both horizontally as well as vertically. Look for g729. If g729 can't be found, or can be found but contains "-" throughout the matrix, then the module has not been installed correctly.

Example output:

> core show translation recalc 10
         Recalculating Codec Translation (number of sample seconds: 10)

         Translation times between formats (in microseconds) for one second of data
          Source Format (Rows) Destination Format (Columns)
