Enabling Video Support In Asterisk
Video codecs are supported on an experimental basis. Add to /etc/asterisk/sip.conf just below the other codecs:
- videosupport = yes
- allow = <codec>
Then run "asterisk -rx reload" to make them take effect. Note that both ends of the video must use the same codec as there is no transcoding by Asterisk.
The supported video codecs are:
- h261 (minimum Asterisk 1.6)
- h263 (minimum Asterisk 1.6)
- h263p (minimum Asterisk 1.4)
- h264 (minimum Asterisk 1.4)
