Moh in G729 without transcoding

[Daniele]

Hi,
I'm using G729 passthrough in my FusionPBX. I've a hardware gateway supporting G729, hardware phone supporting G729.
It works but I'm in trouble with MOH. Infact now music is not in G729 format and I can't upload g729 files using the interface.

I should load g729 music so I would be able to use G729 codec for everything without any transcoding.

Is it possible in FusionPbx? Thanks

G729 is a codec not an audio file format; an audio codec converts analog audio signals into digital signals for transmission. MOH normally exists as a .wav file on your system.

Sorry but I know in Asterisk you can provide different audio format (wav, gsm, g729). I guessed I could do that also in Fusiopbx in order to avoid FS has to transcode that. Is there a way to do that? Thanks

Have a look here: https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_native_file
You will need to make sure that mod_native_file is installed and loaded on your system. Hope this helps!

I don't think any method is going to help here. If you are using passthrough, thats exactly whats happening, passthrough. The PBX can play no part, at least, I think that's the case anyway.

I already did that. I used this service online (http://g711.org/) to convert the audio file, enabled the mod_native_file but when I arrive to the moh fs says

I guess @DigitalDaz is right.
