But you still need someone to be able to talk to. Ken's point is it works great when you're only calling your other Speex phones, but as soon as you want to talk to someone else you'll find they don't have Speex. You then have to use another codec... a common standard one that's been around for so long everyone supports it... like G729.

If hardware doesn't support it, make one that supports Speex right out of the box. I'm pretty sure that somebody will do it.

Why people insist on speex I am not sure... Sure its nice on a closed network but quickly looses its luster when communicating with the real world... Not to mention the CPU usages and such...
If you want to use something like speex check out iLBC and theres things like the Sangoma D100/D500 that you can use to offload the transcoding from the CPU (disclaimer I sell the sangoma hardware)

Phones, carriers, and just about any commercial gear (reference hardware, SBCs, DSPs, etc) you'll ever see doesn't support Speex. Guess how you'll make it work? Transcoding from G729 to Speex. Now you're using licenses, proxying RTP, and wasting CPU while ruining voice quality transcoding from one lossy codec to another. It's just about the worst possible situation you could be in.

Except that many hardware phones don't have speex, so the only low-bandwidth solution is g729... On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 7:43 PM, curriegrad2004 < curriegrad2004@gmail.com> wrote:
Simple solution to this g.729 patent non-sense: Speex.
'nuff said.
