Hello Chris,
probably you have not only G.711 a-law voice frames but comfort noise frames mixed (or other payload types); Ethereal recognizes them but it can not save them as audio (I understand that's your problem: you attempt to save audio but you get the unsupported codec message). Just filter out payload types other than 8 (A-law) with rtp.p_type==8, and save only as AU audio file this payload type.

Regards

I’ve tried to decode voip traffic (ITU-T G7.11 PCMA) wityh ethereal but I always get the error: “Can’t save in a file: Unsupported codec!”

I see posts that talk about G7.11 PCMA being supported but nothing about ITU-T. I am capturing the traffic with a NAM2 blade on a Cisco 6500 and then downloading/importing into Ethereal v0.10.13.

Any help would be appreciated.
