5.4 Premium Features
Premium Features offers items that you can purchase to use on Bria.
•G.729 codec is a narrowband codec that is intended for low bandwidth use. It is
particularly recommended if you will be making calls over 3G/4G because it
provides better audio quality on your mobile data connection.
•Presence and Messaging allows you to send instant messages to your buddies
and share your online status (presence) with them. You can use this feature on
XMPP accounts (such as Gmail or Facebook) and/or SIP accounts, depending on
whether your VoIP service provider supports this feature for SIP SIMPLE. With
SIP accounts, you can also send SMS to PSTN phone numbers if your VoIP
service provider supports this feature.
