[Freeswitch-users] Using G729 licenses purchased from Digium on FreeSWITCH

[Ken Rice]

digium's G729 licenses only work with Asterisk.

when you license the G729 codec you are not just licensing the patents but you are also licensing the software that implements G729 codecs.

While these instructions which "explains the installation quite perfectly" might work in the general, vanilla cases where things are exactly the same as the documentation author's situation, I suspect mine is slightly different since I'm moving from Asterisk with existing licenses.

In the fs_cli, I see "Unrecognised resource G.729A/0", which according to other mailing list threads mean that the licenses aren't valid.
