g729

just purchased g729 codecs from digium but when I try to terminate to a non-asterisk gateway i get the following errors:

WARNING[8782]: channel.c:506 ast_best_codec: Don’t know any of 0x0 formats
WARNING[8782]: channel.c:506 ast_best_codec: Don’t know any of 0x0 formats

am terminating sipura g729 or g711 calls to a quintum cms gateway. both ends do have g729 and g711. does anyone know what the problem is?
thank you in advance.

what does CLI> show g729 and CLI> show translation return ?

hi,
thank you for your answer. Here is the output of those commands:

show g729

show translation

show g729 <- tried this but got error.
No such command ‘show g729’ (type ‘help’ for help)

if you don’t have the Digium g729 binary loaded you’ll get that !!

I was able to make the link below to work w/ FC5 but not in Debian.

ANybody there might have experience in making this work - this might help.

Let us get back to the subject. I have purchased the license.
What do the following errors indicate? Is there a way to solve the problem?

WARNING[8782]: channel.c:506 ast_best_codec: Don't know any of 0x0 formats WARNING[8782]: channel.c:506 ast_best_codec: Don't know any of 0x0 formats

Thank you in advance.

okay, turn on debug in the log and post the output of that. Asterisk doesn’t like the codec choices being offered by the gateway, you need to see what the data is behind the error. what does sip.conf entry for this gateway look like ? and [general] in sip.conf.
