asterisk users - Oct 2003 - MP3s in /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 causes Asterisk crash

Hi All,

I have just compiled the newest version of mpg123 on a RedHat 9.0 system 
(mpg321 has not been installed) and I am using the newest CVS version of 
asterisk.  Whenever I place any mp3 files in the 
/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3/ directory, Asterisk crashes a horrible fiery 
death.

If mp3s exist in that directory, then I can't even start Asterisk.  If I 
start it without files then copy them over, then it crashes.  If I use 
the mp3player() app then it crashes.  Using mpg123 -t filename.mp3 seems 
to be fine.

If you have any idea's on things I can test for, it'd be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

So yah.. apparently the 0.59s version compiled with linux-mmx doesn't 
play too nicely with whatever Asterisk is calling it as. 
"Downgrading"
to version 0.59r seemed to fix the problem.

Nothing to see here, please move along.

Thanks,
