Description:I have encountered a problem with similar symptoms to those described in bug 6568.
Two Polycom VSX 3000  stations were used.  The result of the problem is that a connection is established with audio, but with no video.



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

The problem goes away if you modify rtp.c and change the values in static_RTP_PT from
[103] = {1, AST_FORMAT_H263_PLUS},
and
[99] = {1, AST_FORMAT_H264},

to

[96] = {1, AST_FORMAT_H263_PLUS},
and
[109] = {1, AST_FORMAT_H264},
which are the values the Polycom uses by default.

These are dynamic RTP payloads, polycom should read whatever we define... This sounds like a bug in Polycom firmware

I would have to agree - these are dynamic payloads and should be negotiated using their names, not the numbers. Might want to talk to Polycom and see what they say.

OK.

I must admit when I first diagnosed the problem I missed the issuing of the codec mapping in the OK to the first station.  Assuming that you guys have seen the remapping working with other videophones, I can accept it as being Polycom's problem rather than Asterisk's. (as an aside, I am trying to get the stations updated to the latest firmware but that is becoming a minor epic)

Does that imply that the earlier bug (6568) was wrong in it's assumption that Asterisk wasn't handling the video properly?

I don't think this is related, since 6568 was two asterisk boxes talking to each other.  Closing.
