Make sure you do a CVS up as I have checked in a few fixes in the last 48
hours to do with GSM and merging audio capabilities (for SILK).

Dear Simon, Robert and all H323Plus Team,

Thanks for your very fast answer.

I have successfully built ptlib, h323plus (1.22) with silk codec and simple.
I put silk_ptplugin.dll, iLBC_ptplugin.dll and gsm0610_ptplugin.dll into
c:\pwlib_plugins (then also to c:\ptlib_plugins). Simple runs OK on XP and
Windows 7, quality of G.711 and iLBC (both 13k and 15k) is good, but neither
gsm nor silk work. 
There are some static, MOS is about 1... Additionally, simple app logs
SKP_Silk_Encode returned -4 every few seconds. Am I doing anything wrong?

Regards,
Łukasz

I have checked the code into the h323plus CVS. 
There is no official ITU Generic identifier yet so it is using a Packetizer
Identifer for the moment.

You can contact me offlist to discuss.

I added SILK to OPAL a couple of months back. Unfortunately it was SIP only
as I did not know what the H.245 encoding is for SILK, if any.

Now that I see there is at least a proposed standard, this should be able to
be finished in a few minutes. It would be really nice if the two systems
could use the same code for this.
