Detailed Description

This section describes functions to initialize and register BCG729 codec factory to the codec manager. After the codec factory has been registered, application can use Codec Framework API to manipulate the codec.

This codec factory contains G.729 codec.

BCG729

BCG729 is compliant with ITU-T G.729 and Annexes A, B specifications.

BCGG729 supports 16-bit PCM audio signal with sampling rate 8000Hz, frame length 10ms, and resulting in bitrate 8000bps.

Codec Settings

General codec settings for this codec such as VAD and PLC can be manipulated through the setting field in pjmedia_codec_param. Please see the documentation of pjmedia_codec_param for more info.

Note that G.729 VAD status should be signalled in SDP, see more description below.

Annex B

The capability of VAD/DTX is specified in Annex B.

By default, Annex B is enabled. This default setting of Annex B can be modified using pjmedia_codec_mgr_set_default_param().

In pjmedia_codec_param, Annex B is configured via VAD setting and format parameter "annexb" in the SDP "a=fmtp" attribute in decoding fmtp field. Valid values are "yes" and "no", the implementation default is "yes". When this parameter is omitted in the SDP, the value will be "yes" (RFC 4856 Section 2.1.9).

Here is an example of modifying default setting of Annex B to be disabled using pjmedia_codec_mgr_set_default_param():

pjmedia_codec_param param;
 
pjmedia_codec_mgr_get_default_param(.., &param);
...
// Set VAD
param.setting.vad = 0;
// Set SDP format parameter
param.setting.dec_fmtp.cnt = 1;
param.setting.dec_fmtp.param[0].name = pj_str("annexb");
param.setting.dec_fmtp.param[0].val  = pj_str("no");
...
pjmedia_codec_mgr_set_default_param(.., &param);

Note

The difference of Annex B status in SDP offer/answer may be considered as incompatible codec in SDP negotiation.
