CDRs contain two sub-fields to convey the audio encoding values used for the codecs used on the ingress and egress legs. For pass-through calls, the most preferred codec in the SDP answer is logged in the CDR, for a transcoded call, the selected codec is logged in the CDR. The following table shows details for the sub-fields. See CDR Field Descriptions for the full list of additional media stream statistics sub-fields.
Audio Encoding Sub-fields in Additional Media Stream Statistics
Sub-field Number | Sub-field Name | Max length in ASCII | Type | START | STOP | ATTEMPT | INTERMEDIATE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | ingress codecParams1 | 32 | Character | NA | 256.5 | 202.5 | NA |
| 8 | egress codecParams1 | 32 | Character | NA | 256.8 | 202.8 | NA |
The two sub-fields include the following information:
network type(P for packet, C for circuit)codec type(numeric codec value, refer to Codec Type Descriptions)mode-set/bit rate
For most codecs the data appears in the format <packet_type>:<codec_type>:<mode-set/bit rate>. If more than one mode-set or bit rate value applies the values for the third component are separated by semi-colons.
For the EVS codec, only the primary mode rate is captured in CDRs and the following format applies for the sub-fields:
<packet_type>:<codec_type>:<bit-rate;mode set>
where bit-rate can be specified as a range and mode set can contain multiple values separated by semi-colons. For example: P:70:5.9-128;0;1
For the SILK codec, the following format applies:
<packet_type>:<codec_type>:<maxaveragebitrate>
where maxaveragebitrate can be in the range 6000 to 40000.
Supported Codecs
The data applies to the following codecs/coding rates:

Example
The CDR field numbers for Additional Media Stream Statistics for STOP and ATTEMPT records are 256 and 202 respectively. For example, when a CDR is decoded using a CAM Decoder, the Additional Media Stream Statistics field for the STOP record will have the following partial content:
256.1 Entries per stream "6 256.2 Number of streams 01 256.3 ingress lostPktBursts1 0 256.4 ingress lostPktSingles1 0 256.5 ingress codecParams1 P:27:4;8 256.6 egress lostPktBursts1 0 256.7 egress lostPktSingles1 0 256.8 egress codecParams1 P:27:4;8"
Note
In the example, the first and the second columns are for illustration only, and not part of the actual decoded CDR.
The ";" (semicolon) character is used as a delimiter if more than one value applies.
