[Freeswitch-users] Codec Negotiation Help

[Spencer Thomason]

Thanks for you help, I'll try that.  So I'm a little confused with the negotiation process with two profiles.  Lets say for  example that I have a device that only supports GSM on the internal profile and a call comes in on the external profile as ULAW, G729.  If I set inherit_codec=true would Freeswitch then transcode?  How does the disable-transcoding option work in regards to two profiles?  I.e. Only one profile has transcoding disabled but a call traverses both of them.. (2 legs, one bridge).  Which profile would the transcoding need to be enabled (or not disabled rather)?

Thanks,
Spencer

I would like to keep G729 in the outbound prefs because some routes might not support PCMU.  Should I set one of the profiles to generous, and if so which one?
