L1 codec?

[yukon]

Hi All,
I'm still dealing with my high CPU usage on calls and I noticed that there's an L16 codec showing up on the active calls during call creation. Anyone know what this means? Any idea how to disable this?

My global_codec_prefs and outbound_codec_prefs are all set to: PCMU,G729,GSM

I think FS core uses L16 internally so you may not disable it.......

Don't disable it, you will break more things


Try the inherit_codec=true variable (check the name, not 100% positive about the variable name). This will let the FreeSWITCH to use transcoding as last resort

Ok, I guess I just hadn't noticed it there before. It switches to PCMU once the call is picked up. But Im having all these server CPU issues, so was wondering if that might be one of the causes. Sounds like thats a no!
