Setting up a H.323 gateway
The IP VCR has a gateway function which allows you to define the IP address of a gateway: for example you
could set up a gateway definition to call out to an endpoint you cannot call directly, for example, behind an
IP PBX. When you call out to the endpoint and use the pre-defined gateway definition the IP PBX acts as
the gateway and routes the call to the endpoint using the E.164 number.
Go to
Gateways > Add H.323 gateway. See the online help topic “Adding and updating gateways”.
The gateway definitions should not to be confused with our ISDN gateway which is a protocol converter as
well as a call director.
Transferring recordings
Although you can make and view recordings with the IP VCR you are not restricted to watching only
recordings made with the IP VCR. You can upload recordings made elsewhere to the VCR - and you can
download recordings made on the Codian IP VCR. See the online help topic “Transferring recordings”.
To upload a recording, go to
Recordings and select Upload Recording.
Recording file formats
Recordings can be uploaded or downloaded in the .codian or MPEG 1 format file. Files in the .codian
format transfer more quickly. MPEG1 files can be viewed on a PC using a package such as Quicktime™.
(Codian provides a command line utility to convert files in .codian format to MOEG 1 format.)
Transferring by re-recording
You can also transfer a recording by using Call out and record, and then calling the recording to re-record.
However, the new recording may not be of the same quality as the original.
