The asterisk-addons package contains code to allow
the storage of Call Detail Records (CDRs) to a MySQL database and
to natively play MP3s, as well as an interpreter for loading Perl
code into memory for the life of an Asterisk process. Programs are
placed into asterisk-addons when
there are licensing issues preventing them from being implemented
directly into the Asterisk source code, or when they are not yet
ready for primetime.
The g729/
directory contains the code and registration program for the
proprietary G.729 codec . Even if your end devices have the G.729
codec installed, in order to allow the phones to communicate with
Asterisk using G.729 (e.g., in voicemail or to allow attended
transfers), you must purchase a license. Licenses for the codec can
be purchased online from Digium and activated with the registration
program contained in the g729/
directory.
