Video Calls

[legolas108]

Hello!

Trying to make video calls work. Followed the instructions in Video Call but the H264 codec doesn't show up under "SIP Status" as described though fs_cli -x 'load mod_h26x' outputs

+OK Reloading XML
-ERR [Module already loaded]

Also complete machine restart didn't help. What more configuration am I missing?

Thanks much for any hint!

Using:
FusionPBX 4.5.11
Switch 1.10.5 (64bit)

OK, problem solved, but not really properly I believe.

When copying the value of the global_codec_prefs variable (Advanced / Variables) to the internal SIP profile (Advanced / SIP Profiles), i.e. replacing the values (both $${global_codec_prefs}) of the inbound-codec-prefs and outbound-codec-prefs settings there, the codecs show up under Status / "SIP Status" after hitting RESCAN for sofia status profile internal and internal video calling works just fine. Similarly would expect it to work for the external SIP profile.

But that seems to indicate that the global_codec_prefs variable is not properly substituted for the SIP profiles during startup pre-processing. So, question becomes how to fix that.

Any hint is still very welcome, otherwise we can certainly live with this workaround for now.
