Early Media and "Late Negotiation"
Hello list, I have a bit of a transcoding issue when calling out. This is a tiny (literally) home PBX running FreeSWITCH 1.8.1. I have <param name="inbound-late-negotiation" value="true"/> in the SIP profiles and <action application="set" data="inherit_codec=true"/> in the dialplan. This works well when there is no early media, meaning the late negotiation results in the same codec on both legs. But when there is early media from the provider, then this usually results in transcoding. Example: 1. Phone offers this to FS: G722 PCMA G729 2. FS offers the following to provider: G722 PCMA 3. Provider sends 183 with PCMA 4. FS sends 183 with G722 to local phone (transcoding begins) 5. Provider sends 200 OK with PCMA 6. FS sends 200 OK with G722 to phone (transcoding continues) This is obviously a bit inefficient, because PCMA would've be fine on both legs :) I found some variables like ignore_early_media and bridge_early_media, but after a bit of reading up on them I don't think they're what I need. On the WWW somebody said inbound-codec-negotiation set to greedy should take care of this, but I tried it and didn't see a difference. On the Confluence Early Media page there is actually a paragraph "Early Media and Late Negotiation", but as of now it's just a stub. Anybody knows some dialplan magic to get what I'm after? Thanks!
