Description:Connecting two softphones using Asterisk with reinvite option enabled may loose dtmfs if payload code is not 101 for audio/telephone-event for the calling phone.

When doing the reinvite, payload mapping is not actualized between the two terminals. Then, terminals may send dtmfs using two different payloads.

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

Here is a sample sequence:

Phone 1: sends invite to Asterisk with:
a=rtpmap:96 telephone-event/8000/1
<- OK ...

Asterisk: sends INVITE to Phone 2 with:
a=rtpmap:101 telephone-event/8000
<- OK ...

Then Asterisk reinvite:
Asterisk: sends invite to Phone 1 with:
a=rtpmap:96 telephone-event/8000
<- OK

Asterisk: sends invite to Phone 2 with:
a=rtpmap:101 telephone-event/8000
<- OK

Then, when rfc 2833 packets are sent from Phone 1 to Phone 2, their payload is 96, while Phone 2 waits for payload 101.

Workaround: either forbid reinvite, or use 101 as default payload for telephone-event in both phones.

Attached file contains complete traces of sip messages.

Never seen Asterisk to negotiate RFC 2833 payload... it should be 101 and other payload types are not supported AFAIK.

could we just not accept a codec change when a diffrent rtpmap sdp payload is sent and keep the old connection running via the stored sip_pvt structure in memory when process_sdp() is called?

/* Note: should really look at the 'freq' and '#chans' params too */
ast_rtp_set_rtpmap_type(p->rtp, codec, "audio", mimeSubtype);
if (p->vrtp)
ast_rtp_set_rtpmap_type(p->vrtp, codec, "video", mimeSubtype);
}



I am not entirelly sure on this tho.. and may be mistaken, input would be welcomed :)

or this may break some of the functionality of the reason for a reinvite ....

I'm really not a SIP expert, but I think that choosing 101 as the only possible payload type for RFC 2833 is arbitrary. Rejecting other payload codes would not be a nice solution, because some softphones don't use 101 as default dtmf payload.

A good solution, I think, would be:
- to reuse the same payload map from caller to callee,
- not to re-invite if (for any reason) payload codes are not the same.

We should offer the correct setting in the re-invite, this is most certainly a bug. Asterisk itself always set 101 to DTMF/RFC2833 but should keep others in mind when re-inviting.

anybody able to handle a patch here?

oej, you seemed to think that this was a bug. Is that still the case ?

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2006-11-12 14:18:31.000-0600

This is definitely a bug that needs a fix.

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2006-11-12 14:33:30.000-0600

Wonder if we do support this for normal codecs. If phone A wants to receive ulaw as codec 102, will Asterisk send codec 102 for ulaw on the re-invite to the other phone?

please test the "earlyrtpfix" branch where I fixed this - hopefully. We saw the same problem with video call setups.

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2006-11-22 08:02:28.000-0600

My branch now fixes the setup of the call - the invite, but not handling the 200 OK coming back. Trying to fix that.

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2006-11-30 01:27:59.000-0600

Have you tested my branch? Any feedback?

By: Henning Holtschneider (hehol) 2006-11-30 12:58:43.000-0600

I do not have a setup available at the moment to reproduce the case but I will try ASAP!

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2007-01-23 03:00:38.000-0600

ASAP was a while ago... :-) Any updates?

By: Olle Johansson (oej) 2007-02-01 15:38:03.000-0600

Will re-open when reporter wakes up again.
