A method for volume indication during a communication session includes detecting analog audio at a telephony device. First communication packets are transmitted from the telephony device indicating that the analog audio is being received. The analog audio is encoded to a digital audio stream and second communication packets comprising the digital audio stream are transmitted from the telephony device. In accordance with a particular embodiment, the first communication packets indicate an approximate volume level of the analog audio. The method may also include receiving, at the telephony device, analog video. The analog video is converted to a digital video stream. The digital video stream may be transmitted from the telephony device.
