H.323 p2p media
by J.C Mercier 26 Dec '11

26 Dec '11

Hi all, Just curious to know if ICE NAT traversal metrology can also be implemented to help H.323, or is there any alternate approach as a work in progress for P2P media without requiring the use of a gatekeeper? Any info or other possibilities/approach will be greatly appreciated Thanks Josh

Multiplexing support in H323plus
by J.C Mercier 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

Hi all, looking through the h323plus code, I noticed it supports multiplexing for H.460.19. Just a few questions; 1. Does H323plus also support RTP multiplexing without the need for h.460.19 (direct endpoint to endpoint)? 2. If it doesn't support endpoint to endpoint multiplexing, does limiting RTP ports to only a few ports such as 10 to 12 (i.e. 3000 - 3010) opened port always remain in that range or will this produce any side affects when making a lot of calls? 3. With multiplexing support for H.460.19, is it 2 ports; 1 bi-directional port for audio and 1 bi-directional port for video? is there a third port for RTCP (QoS)? 4. Is sending/receiving RTCP/QoS mandatory for H.323 systems? What affects are there if this is not enabled? Thanks for all your help Josh

Rearranged Default Session IDs
by J.C Mercier 13 Dec '11

13 Dec '11

Hi all, Just wanted to confirm whether both DefaultDataSessionID and DefaultH224SessionID are to use the same value '3' as indicated in mediafmt.h as well as in rtp.h or is this a typo? enum { NonRTPSessionID = 0, FirstSessionID = 1, DefaultAudioSessionID = 1, DefaultVideoSessionID = 2, DefaultDataSessionID = 3, DefaultH224SessionID = 3, DefaultExtVideoSessionID = 4, DefaultFileSessionID = 5, LastSessionID = 5 }; Thanks Josh

video plugins and ffmpeg
by Ben Dudley 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hello all, I'm trying to compile OpenAM and use the plugins from the plugins dir of h323plus. I've downloaded the latest ptlib, h323plus core and applications from http://www.h323plus.org/source/. I started with a virgin install of Ubuntu 10.04 and installed dependent libs as necessary. Which version of ffmpeg works best with the plugins? apt-get retrieves ffmpeg 0.5.1. everything compiles fine and when I point PWLIBPLUGINDIR to OPENH323DIR/plugins openam lists all the codecs I expect to see - including H263. However, when I connect my video endpoint to it the video is freezes on what appears to be the first frame. I've tried later versions of ffmpeg from ffmpeg.org and libav from libav.org (recompiling h323plus, the plugins and openam after each ffmpeg change) but then openam doesn't list H263 in its list of codecs - only H261. The configure script indicates libavcodec and h263 is available for every combination I've tried. So, what's the secret to building openam with the H263 codecs? What version of ffmpeg must I use? Any help is greatly appreciated! PS: my apologies for first accidentally sending this to open323gk-users. Thanks! -Ben

H.323 video codec support
by J.C Mercier 05 Dec '11

05 Dec '11

Hi all, I just have a question to know if H.323 is capable of supporting additional codecs such as THEORA (based on VP3) or VP8? If so, is h323plus capable of supporting such implementations or does H.323 only restricts video codecs to the H.26x class? Your insight on how this can be accomplished or what the requirements are will be appreciated. Thanks Josh

Removing H.263/H.264 Capabilities in OpenMCU
by Victor Zanozin 30 Nov '11

30 Nov '11

Hi guys, I'm getting stuck with OpenMCU loading, and only starting the H.261 codecs. It seems it can detect H.263/H.264, but removes them shortly after detection, and then only shows one set of codecs in the video section of the startup. Logs: 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Found capability: H.239 Capabilities <18> H.263{sw} <1> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Removing capability: H.239 Capabilities <18> H.263{sw} <1> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.239 Capabilities" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "*-QCIF*" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Found capability: H.261-QCIF{sw} <14> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Removing capability: H.261-QCIF{sw} <14> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "*-QCIF*" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "*-SQCIF*" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.261{sw}" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Found capability: H.261{sw} <15> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Removing capability: H.261{sw} <15> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.261{sw}" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.263{sw}" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Found capability: H.263{sw} <16> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 Removing capability: H.263{sw} <16> 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.263{sw}" 0:00.030 OpenMCU H323 FindCapability: "H.264{sw}" 0:00.031 OpenMCU H323 Found capability: H.264{sw} <17> 0:00.031 OpenMCU H323 Removing capability: H.264{sw} <17> Codecs loaded: 1: H.261-CIF{sw} <13> I'm also seeing no split screen video - When new endpoints join, video on the first endpoint freezes, and the new endpoint is not displayed until either endpoint disconnects, then it switches back to whichever endpoint is still connected and video resumes. Can anyone help? Thanks! Victor

Text messaging in H323plus
by J.C Mercier 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hi all, first of all, thank you very much for all your kind help and suggestions. I am working with the simple application that comes with H323plus and I was wondering if H323plus supports sending text messages without being in a call. I know with previous versions of h323 this was not possible unless you did some sort of work around. Thanks Josh

Negotiate /Renegotiate video channel during call
by J.C Mercier 26 Nov '11

26 Nov '11

Hi all, Does anyone know if it's possible in H323plus renegotiate for video channel during a call? For instance, let's say I started an audio only call and the remote party is sending either audio only or both audio and video, is there a way for me start sending my video as the call is already in progress? And also, if i'm in a video call (sending my video) and i want to switch to audio only by stopping video (my video transmission) while the call is in progress, how would go about doing that? If this is not supported, what approach is supported in H323plus? Thanks in advance for your help. Josh C.
