      Has anyone attempted to use a Yealink T58V phone with FreePBX for video calling with FreePBX? I feel like the only real need for the camera would be for the android apps themselves at this point.

      With other Yealinks, yes, but not that specific model.

        With FreePBX I have never gotten HD calling or Video calling to work, internally or otherwise I have never tried to turn it on and I am posting here out of laziness. It doesn't work by default.

        It did on Elastix. Just worked. haven't tried with FreePBX recently.

          I had some very old yealink video phones that have never worked on FreePBX. I am not doing any provisioning though, just entering sip server ip, user, auth information.

            Weird, any idea why they did not work?

              I just assumed it wasnt supported by default. Gonna spin up a fresh install of FreePBX and try from scratch.

              So you think they should just work by default?

                I would expect so.

                  @bigbear I would expect it to, yes.

                  I have not had any clients ask for video phones, so I have not tested this.

                    I figured out I could pay $23 more on bulk orders and get the T58V over the 58A. The unfortunate side effect of this deal is that those customers are now asking about it. I told them its not supported but then thought I would give it a try.

                      So the issue appears to be with FreePBX's GUI not offering video codec settings in the web interface for PJSIP.

                      I was able to set it on each extension as per the comments in this bug report...

                      https://issues.freepbx.org/browse/FREEPBX-11577

                      And you have to set it as: h264,ulaw,alaw under allowed codes under Advanced in each setting.

                      Now I am trying to figure out if I can get phones on the same remote LAN to send RTP streams direct (phone to phone) so that the video doesn't freeze up. It's really more of a gimick I think (the video calling). Seems like it would be annoying to have people peeking in at you over intercom all day.

                      But still, I would like to figure out how to get the direct RTP stream going. This can be done in Freeswitch so I imagine Asterisk will do it. Not sure the GUI would have a setting for it though.

                        Direct meaning peer to peer rather than passing through Asterisk?

                              Will give it a try tomorrow. With it being hosted I wonder if I need to do the directmedia=yes entry.

                              Will report back whatever configs work...
