[Freeswitch-users] Open g729 g723 codec, any expierence

[jay binks]

interesting discussion, ive always wondered about the use of the "Open
Source" implementation.
however I agree it is fraught with pitfalls.

the real interesting one would be the ability to use the TC400B
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Bounty

if I could buy that card ( about $1450 ) and run 120 channels of G729 then
thats great value.
that works out at about $12 per G729 codec license, which is not a whole lot
more than the digium software license.
AND you dont bulk down your CPU with it... which is even better !!!

tell you what, I reckon this card ( and others like it if there are any )
should be the first target for G729 on freeswitch
especially if its quite easy to work with that API.

now to figure out how to get that PCI card into my HP blade server :P
( might need a few 1ru boxes JUST for transcoding RTP )
