if you enable mod_g729 you can use freeswitch normally with that g729 codec as long
as no transcoding is enabled (same passthru concept as proxy_media_mode)

Hi Brian,

don't understand very well your advice:
--> Can't use proxy media in this case.  (I highly recommend you not use
Proxy Media mode)

If i want to hide my topology network and deal with G729, I must use
proxy media ?
Why is Proxy media mode not recommended ??

regards.
