G.729 Codec Problem

Hi,

I am using freepbx (Asterisknow). I purchased a  G.729 1 channel codec license from digium. And installed as per the documentation. Then configured the sip.conf to use the new codec. For that, I am added the following entries in sip.conf (via web interface, as i am using asterisknow 1.5)

disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
allow=gsm

After that, when try to call through the PSTN line I can hear the voice of called party, but he can’t hear me. But an incoming call from PSTN works normally. And also we have sip trunks from callcentric.com, but it is functioning as normal. Also the sip to sip local extension calls works fine.

When I make a call through PSTN, the Asterisk log showing the following error:

Please suggest a solution. Do we need additional licence?

Can I use different codecs for different channels?

Thanking you in anticipation,

Look like nothing wrong with the codec but with your configuration.
