Description Mikhail Zabaluev 2008-08-22 01:29:30 UTC
In some SIP deployments, a commonly contacted remote endpoint exhibits incompatible behavior if certain RTP payload numbers are in use. As some of those endpoints come from a major hardware manufacturer, and used in certain large corporate deployments, it's worthwhile to have a media channel interface defining a property to blacklist codec IDs from being assigned by the stream engine.

The type could be a(uau) or a{uau}, where the first u is Media_Stream_Type and the second u is for codec ID numbers.

I believe we already implemented this (in an ad-hoc way) in telepathy-sofiasip and telepathy-farsight, so we just need the spec to catch up?

Right.

I don't see any support for this in telepathy-farsight, or indeed in telepathy-sofiasip? Could you propose a patch, please?

Setting priority to low since nobody seems to have cared thus far :-P
