Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems, methods, and computer readable media for synchronizing a media codec between network elements of a media communication session. In a particular embodiment, a method provides designating a first network element to be a static-clock network element during the media communication session and designating at least a second network element to be a dynamic-clock network element during the media communication session. The method further provides determining that a difference in clock speed exists between a second clock speed for the media codec at the second network element and a first clock speed for the media codec at the first network element. Also, the method provides adjusting the second clock speed to account for the difference in clock speed.
