Does anybody have a good source for hold music? I can see a number of companies on the web that sell royalty-free MOH, but they don't all provide samples.

> I would appreciate it if anyone can give me some instructions on how to > install mpg123.One more time for those running RedHat v9 ... ;) ------------------------------------------------ Well... we found the problem. Redhat guys replaced mpg123 for mpg321. Asterisk only works with original mpg123. First, shutdown asterisk and kill all mpg process: killall -9 mpg123 Second, remove the symbolic links mpg123 located in /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin: rm /usr/bin/mpg123 rm /usr/local/bin/mpg123 (if exists) Third, you need to download http://www.mpg123.de/mpg123/precompiled/mpg123-0.59q-1.i386.rpm And install using rpm -ivh mpg123-0.59q-1.i386.rpm Fourth step is: cp /usr/local/bin/mpg123 /usr/bin/mpg123 Last step (obvioulsy) is start asterisk again. Thats it. I hope this works.
Sometimes when people hang up, or the call gets interrupted for some reason, music on hold starts playing. (i use app_dial without extra parameters and no moh is set in extensions.conf) Any suggestions on how i could get rid of this 'feature' ? greetz, zoa.
Hi, I can't seem to get any of my own MP3's to work with Asterisk as music on hold. The default sample one works fine, but if I place another one in there, Asterisk fails to start. I have removed all ID3 tag information and also made it 128kbps mono. Is there something i'm missing? Thanks! -- jeremy bogan [ jeremy@segpub.com.au ] segment publishing - design.develop.host

Are there any log messages about the mp3 player not being spawned ?
Like "Fork failed" or "unable to spawn mp3player"
?
I am unfamiliar with how FC1 starts a service. Is this something you
added yourself ?

So you can see that its playing the files.
But when i put someone on hold, he cant hear it at all.
Any idea?

Did you transfer the mp3s to the * box via FTP? If so, did you use binary not ascii mode? Ascii mode will mess the files up every time. Explicitly call binary then your mget so your files don't get hosed. Also, if your musiconhold.conf file has a good reference to where your mp3s are located... default => quietmp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3,-Z Then are you calling the context from your extensions.conf file correctly? I use this extension just so I can test that the music is there... ; ;MUSIC ON HOLD EXTENSION ; exten => 6000,1,Answer exten => 6000,2,SetMusicOnHold(default) exten => 6000,3,MusicOnHold() exten => 6000,4,Hangup Dialing from my SIP phone produces tunes as expected and can of course also be verified afterwards via in incoming call put on hold...

Hi, I did recognice an rather strage behaviour on "Music on Hold": Situation Caller C does call Person A Person A puts C on hold to ask B MOH is (correctly) activated for C After talking to B A does hangup to transfer C to B In this moment MOH is activated for C for a moment before C is transferred to B The MOD can be seen on the asterisk console and it can be heared as a short buzz on Phone B. Any Idea how to avoid this? Elmar
Hi,
I've been trying to get music on hold going on one of our servers:
Upon dialling extension 005, it plays:
-- Executing WaitMusicOnHold("SIP/parssyd1-4dbe", "30")
in new stack
-- Started music on hold, class 'default', on SIP/parssyd1-4dbe
However, no music in the background....
MPG123 is intalled..
musiconhold.conf shows:
default => mp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
The directory has?:
root@box-name:~# ls -al /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
total 6589
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 160 2005-04-21 10:25 ./
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 216 2005-02-17 22:48 ../

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2217563 2005-04-21 10:25 fpm-world-mix.mp3
Any clues ? Seems like it actions things but isn't playing the mp3
files..

Hi all, I have some problems with music on hold. It works with the default category but not with additional ones. When I start Asterisk, 2 mpg123 processes are started with the default moh but none with additional ones. Does someone already had this problem and could help me? Thanks, Amaury

What I did so far:
My Asterisk@Home PBX is working fine, with four Grandstream Budge Tone ?100
phones.
Regarding the MoH feature, I did the following:
1. Checked the presence of mpg123. It is.
2. In /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf, I added the line
"musiconhold=default"
under [channels] context
1. In /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf, I uncommented the line that says
"default => mp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3?.
1. I restarted Asterisk in order to reload the musiconhold.conf settings
My files are all mp3 (no ID3 tags left), and I used the AMP Portal, Setup,
On Hold Music, and replaced the default files with some new ones.
Please help
Thanks,
Ed Zaldibar
