asterisk users - Nov 2004 - Problem with sox

Hello,

I have installed sox-12.17.6 from sources with 2.4.27 kernel but i can't mix
audio files. (For both wav and gsm formats)
For example, when i try "soxmix filename-in.wav filename-out.wav
filename.wav". Everything seems ok. There no error messages. But the output
file (filename.wav) is empty, as if the volume was turned off. Am I doing
something wrong or is that a bug?

Thanks for any hint

It's appears to be broken in that version.
Go back to sox-12-17.5(it should work).

Thanks Dawson,

12.17.5 version works fine but i have got to mix files in gsm format first
before converting it to wav by using sox. But soxmix doesn't work directly
with wav files.

Altus, try using groups in zapata.conf. This can be done by adding

group=1
callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1

before channels vpb/1-3 and vpb/1-4

and then in extensions.conf you will have something like

exten => _0.,1,SetVar(CALLFILENAME=${EXTEN:1}-${TIMESTAMP})
exten => _0.,2,Monitor(wav,${CALLFILENAME},m)
exten => _0.,3,Dial(vpb/g1/${EXTEN:1})
exten => _0.,104,Congestion

Hope this help

Lamine
