Comment (by sameerthapaevontech):

 I am developing an application that listens for RTP data using GStreamer
 and converts the received raw data packets using FFMPEG. It works well for
 codes: PCMA, PCMU, G722 and G729 and converts the received audio files
 into wav and mp3. But the conversion fails when G729b stream is received.
 FFMPEG has support for G729 but nothing is mentioned about G729a/b. I
 didn't find any other library/software that can decode G729b to wav or
 mp3.

 Cisco call manager (CUCM) sends voip call data to recording server. Our
 app is on the recording server where gstreamer stores the rtp data. For
 g729 the gstreamer pipeline is: udpsrc port=5008
 caps="application/x-rtp,channels=(int)1,media=(string)audio,payload=(int)18
 ,clock-rate=(int)8000,encoding-name=(string)G729" ! rtpg729depay !
 filesink.
 Call is made through cisco IP phones and softphones, which means they can
 decode and play the codec.
