 Description   

Hello,

We are using g.279 and we have the instant ringback enabled. But it does't go through.

How can we have instant ringback with g.729?

Please see below:

Ringback is media and requires transcoding. You need the commercial G.729 licence from FreeSWITCH installed.

Even if the codec G729 is now a patent-free codec, according to this link and more detailed here ?

IMO it's a commercial decision to maintain those codecs and charging for its usage. I understand that freeswitch needs to make money or invested money to have those codecs while the licensing was mandatory. I wonder what will happen now that the codec is royalty-free.

@N1ck3l Freeswitch guys are keep suggesting to use licensed version only and till now transcoding needs license.
