      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...
