mod_bcg729

FreeSWITCH G.729A module using the opensource bcg729 implementation by Belledonne Communications.

Simple G.729A codec for FreeSWITCH using the Belledonne Communications G.729A GPLv2 implementation. Please see http://www.linphone.org/eng/documentation/dev/bcg729.html for further informations.

The module is a modified version of fsg729 ( https://code.google.com/p/fsg729/ ) which uses the Intel IPP libraries, updated to use a different codec implementation and get rid of Intel stuff.

As of Jan 1 2017, G.729 is a royalty free codec: http://www.sipro.com/G729.html

You can get a faster and supported G.729A codec by purchasing licenses directly from FreeSWITCH guys http://www.freeswitch.org . This will have the side effect to support the FreeSWITCH project ;)
