[on-asterisk] Convert to g722

[Martin Glazer]

Hi,

I have some Asterisk prompts that I would like to get converted to g722
and so avoid the transcoding hit. I am running Asterisk 1.4 with the
g722 backport patch.

I found some posts from the asterisk mailing list referring to a utility
from Digium, but I couldn't get it compiled (I am not a programmer).
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2009-October/040205.html

Anybody know of a linux (preferable) or windows utility to create these
g722 files?

Thanks

Martin

This is probably the easiest way:

Maybe sox can do it, but not sure.

Yes, it's here:

http://www.digium.com/en/products/ivr/audio-converter.php

Can convert to g.729, GSM, SLN, and 8KHz.

It maybe the easiest way of doing this going forward. I haven't used but would like to hear feedback.

This is a free audio editor "Cool edit 96" that I have found useful in the
past. The link to the download is on the bottom of this page. Not
necessarily the easy way :)

Open the file and then save changing the format.

Thanks Bruce - this doesn't appear to do g722 conversion, only 8KHz wav,
GSM, sln and g729.

Like Andre said, asterisk has a convert command that you can call from the
asterisk console, or via the command line that will go between any of the
codecs that your asterisk installation supports:

asterisk -rx 'file convert /path/to/src.wav /path/to/dest.g722'

[Martin Glazer]

Thanks - I thought this was limited to Asterisk 1.6.1

Using 1.4.30 with the g722 backport, I was able to make the conversion.

I didn't see it mentioned which file you are converting but just a
reminder that all the stock asterisk files are available in all the
supported formats.

Also, when making recordings in Asterisk you can record them in several
formats at the same time so you don't have to convert them later.
