I have a new Polycom VVX-1500 video phone that I am testing under Asterisk 1.6.1. It’s working fine with voice only. For some reason I cannot get the video to work. I have two other video SIP phones. One is a Grandstream and the other is X-Lite. I have no problem establishing video calls between the Grandstream and the X-Lite, that works perfectly.
I’ve edited the sip.cfg file for the Polycom to enable video, and I’m sure those settings are being processed correctly (I can examine them on the phone).
The issue is that when I establish a call between the Polycom and either the Grandstream or the X-Lite softphone, the video icon on the Polycom screen has a line crossing it, I guess indicating that it does not think the client on the other end supports video.
Has anyone figured out how to get video to work with the new Polycom VVX-1500?
No luck. From what I can tell it is a software bug in the phone. I am hoping Polycom is on this and will release a fix sometime soon. What sort of testing did these guys do before releasing the product?
I have video working perfectly between VVX and VVX, and Polycom HDX4000 to VVX but cannot get video to work with VVX to X-Lite. And X-Lite to X-Lite is easily done too.
This probably shouldn’t be on this forum as the VVX isn’t supported by Switchvox (yet)! But if someone out there has got this working it’d be nice to know how.
Can you guys help me with getting the VVX 1500 registered with the Asterisk.
How do I set up boot server and stuff like that?? Right now I am just trying to edit the on phone settings but that’s not working for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
