Hi!

Our carrier supports T.38 for outgoing faxes. I am trying to send faxes like this:

originate {origination_caller_id_name='kevin',origination_caller_id_number='+49123456789',ignore_early_media=true,absolute_codec_string='PCMA,PCMU',fax_use_ecm=true,fax_enable_t38=true,fax_enable_t38_request=true}sofia/gateway/carrier_1/+4912121212 &txfax(/opt/faxout.tif)

Carrier confirmed that T.38 is possible... What could be the cause for this? How can I enforce T.38 instead of falling back to g711a (hangup on failed invite)?

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Kevin
