The OpenH323 Project

This open source project aims to create a free H.323 stack. The project was started as a reaction to the high cost of commercial implementations of audio and video compression code implementing the various components of H.323. Roger H. adds There are now several useful applications which use the library
including OpenMCU (a reliable multi person conference server)
and GnomeMeeting (a GTK/Gnome GUI client for Linux/BSD Unix.


As of Jan 2006, the G.711 and GSM audio are supported in software. The video H.261 codec is fully supported.
