set codec to G.729a
DavidTW:
How do you set your obi device to use G.729a?
I see all the codecs in the codec profile, however the enable boxes are all checked, but greyed out. So I am not sure how to specify which one to use.

I have not played with this myself, but here are some statements -- one or more might be useful to you.
I don't know if your OBi supports G.729a, but might just do G.729.
Your SIP provider must support the codec you want to use. Not all support that, because it costs the provider money to let you do so. It might only be supported on premium options.
In the admin guide search for *4729 and use that for testing. It lets you request/insist on G.729 for the next call. Let us know what you learn.
In the local web server for your OBi, the Status->Call Status will tell you what codec is in use.
In the codec profiles, the Priority tells the OBi what your preference is. I don't know if 1 is higher than 4 for this purpose, but I suspect it is. That is still just a request to the server. To insure that your favorite codec is used, even if the call fails otherwise, I think you could disable the other codecs.

My sip provider says it supports G729a.

Phone Power allows you to specify one of two codecs to use for your calls. The high bandwidth (and thus higher sound quality) codec is G711u. The low bandwidth (and thus lower sound quality) codec is G729a.
I am not familiar with the admin guide? where do I go to search *4729
It says 1 is the highest when I hover over the ? next to priority, however I can't change the value on any of them. the only thing I can really change is Device Default and OBiTALK Settings

See http://www.obihai.com/OBiDeviceAdminGuide for the HTML version and http://www.obihai.com/docs/OBiDeviceAdminGuide.pdf for the PDF. It has flaws, but it has a lot of essential information for you.
You have to un-tick 1 or more check marks to change defaults. If using OBiTalk Expert mode, that is 2 check marks in sequence. Click Submit after you make changes on a page. Take care with making changes.

I am not sure what I am un-ticking... I can change from OBiTALK to device, but I am not sure what the means.... are you saying I change two from OBiTALK to device, and which two?
