You can use transcoding resources available on a separate chassis with CME. You can go upto 5 sdspfarm sessions. CME will share all available resources.
CME configs:
ip source-address 10.1.11.4 port 2000 ———– 10.1.11.4 is the CME router.
sdspfarm units 2
sdspfarm transcode sessions 2
sdspfarm tag 1 mtp0013c3443150 —- this transcoder is on the same box as CME. Lets call this trancoder 1. This is on NM-HDV2
sdspfarm tag 2 mtp0009b7da6540 —- this transcoder is on a different box. Lets call this transcoder 2. This is on NM-HDV

Two calls were placed to force the transcoding and CME did utilize each transcoder (The number of transcoding sessions per transcoder was set to 1)

CCIE Voice notes 
I have quite a high credit rating and was careless enough to get several credit cards for which I was pre-approved by email. Now I realize they are too many and I was late with payments for 2 of them. Fortunately, I got a balance transfer credit card and moved the most part of my debt there, as I found the advice and the application form at
available citi cards balance transfers
I tried the NM-HDV configuration in my lab (I have a CME on a 3745) with the NM-HDV local and am having an issue where if I do a show sccp connection it shows the transcoding sessions, but I’m getting no audio on my call (I’m calling from a CCM phone through H323 to CME and into voicemail). Any suggestions? I checked the configuration that you have listed and mine pretty much matches up (with the obvious exception of mac addresses, etc).
hi.i like transcoding notes
hello everybody.i have some quaries about the transcoding.how to give codecs target parameters.i want to list of codecs.wanna codecs resolution.
Hi I have this configuration on my CME but transcoding don´t work.
