OPUS Support In Asterisk 13
Hi all,
Sorry if this has been asked before. I searched a lot, but found conflicting answers, so hoping for some clarification.
My question is does Asterisk 13 support OPUS? If so which version exactly?
If asterisk 13 requires a patch, which is the correct one and where do I
get it?
Kind regards,
C

Sort of – it supports OPUS pass through officially, but does not support OPUS transcoding. I’m not certain when pass through support went in though, but I believe it was prior to cutting of the 13
branch.
There are some unofficial patches that add OPUS support to Asterisk but I cannot point you to which ones are best to use, unfortunately.
Hope that helps!
I still find it odd that OPUS is not considered safe enough for Asterisk even though it has been used in various programs such as Firefox and Chromium/Chrome. Not very handy if anybody wants to use Asterisk for WebRTC.
Anyway, the up-to-date one I have is:

Tzafrir, heres hoping that it was taken back to Digium Legal after we asked about it a fair bit at AstriDevCon and Astricon
*looks at Matt Jordan and says sorry again*

I hope so! Snom just added opus support in their latest firmware if that counts for anything.
Hope digium figure it out.
Tzafrir, does your update support pass through only or transcoding too?
Thanks all,
Chirag
“My” (actually: Meetecho’s) patch includes transcoding support.
As already mentioned: Asterisk already supports Opus pass-through.
