GnuGk 4.0 feature: Per endpoint codec filtering

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here is how codec filtering works in GnuGk 4.0:

Suppose you have this MCU, that works fine when endpoints use H.263,
but a lot of calls using H.264 fail. Now you can simply disable H.264
in your GnuGk config, even if that MCU doesn't give you that option:

[RoutedMode]
H245Routed=1

[EP::MyMCU]
DisabledCodecs=genericVideoCapability

Now that MCU can't negotiate H.264 any more and all calls will use
H.263. All other endpoint can still use all codecs.

Or suppose you have a Radvision MCU that is rather strict about using
symetric codecs. Many endpoints don't handle symetric codec
requirements correctly, but it often helps to simply disable H.239 if
you aren't using it away:

[EP::RadvisionMCU]
DisabledCodecs=extendedVideoCapability;genericControlCapability


If all your endpoints follow all the specs, you'll probably never need
this feature. Unfortunately not all do and thats when this feature
comes in handy.
