The real topic here is that g729 is necessary because
some part of
your setup requires g729 or g723 to achieve low bandwith consumption
while the whole "old fashioned" telephone industry works with g711
g729 g723 and we still use this to terminate our PSTN traffic.( Not
yet iLBC or GSM or speech or G726).
ilbc is supported by many sip phones and also at least by asterisk and
sems pstn gws. it may just be a short matter of time before ilbc
support is also in cisco gws, since cable labs recently chose it for use
in cable modem voip adapters.
So in stead of discussing the implementation of G729
or G723 over and
over again it is maybe time to form a workgroup that tries to achieve
a transparent opensource replacement of mentioned codec's that can be
used in whatever application.
see above. i consider it better to push ilbc to all major sip phones
and gws.
