Ingmar,

  You have some good points here.  Buy the codec - it supports Digium.

  With regards to the original question - why do you need to transcode
at all?  I use g729 quite a bit, and I have not needed to transcode on
an Asterisk system for quite some time.  It takes a bit of tweaking,
but it can be done.
