Few weeks back local telco introduced option of custom ring tones. I am not talking about your phone ring tones but about ring tones you hear in your headset while phone is ringing on the other end. If I understand correctly, ringing tone is generated localy on asterisk if you are connected to phone network with E1/T1 connection. Which means that instead of regular beep-beep tone we could send something else to the caller in PSTN (like mp3 music). Is there a way of customizing ring tone in asterisk and if yes how? ---- Long, long ago in a galaxy far away, in General Hospital born I was, and quite happy were my parents, but when a youngling still I was, moved we did. mailto:marko@printel.hr http://printel.hr
Yeah. It's a brilliant idea because I believe they would probably return answer supervision to play these "custom ring tones" therefore creating more revenue from the incoming calls.

similar service is when you call our local telco customer service, when you dial it then you first hear "you have reached customer service, plase wait" and while you hear that your call is still not connected and therefore it is free in addition you might have similar message to the caller that "operating hours are from x till xx" so he can hear that instead of ring tone I can think of many uses of that ring tone customisation ---- Two atoms bump into each other.

I am not interested in Dial app, I want the callers who are calling FROM pstn TO asterisk to hear different kind of ring tone (wav, mp3, gsm or whatever) For users within asterisk domain who actually use Dial command it does not matter and I know that I can have full control over them ---- Two atoms bump into each other.

Most custom 'TONES' are wav, acc, mp3 etc. files. If you can set a different MOH class or perhaps a playback file in the dial app that plays a file that is a 'RING TONE' that may work.

yes, yes the thing is that local telco uses this feature for their customer support line and also one of wireless providers now also offers ability to customize your ring tone I was told that if you have analog or even ISDN BRI line that ring tone is generated in your local teclo exchange, but if you have connection like E1 that it is generated localy in your PBX (explanation being that when you hev E1 that telco is giving control over call to your PBX when you dial last number in the phone number which determines that the rest of the range is yours; so if you have tel number 4800600 and have a range of 100 numbers, then when you dial 48006 whatever happens after that is generated on your local PBX because when you press that "6" telco transfers everything to you because od DID and other functionality) ---- Two atoms bump into each other.

I assume, however, you don't want to answer the line at all. You don't want the remote caller to be billed for this call, and you just want them to receive an informational message, am I correct?
>?? >Ringback is provided by your PSTN provider until answer by asterisk. >You have no control until you answer >Then you go to IVR, VM or ??OP said T1/E1, so (usually) there's no ringing delay until Asterisk picks up like in a POTS line. Answering a T1/PRI line is transparent to the caller and then you can fake any ringtone you want. So: 1. Create your ringtone, call it MyCustomRingtone.mp3 & copy it to /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 2. Edit /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf: [classes] default => MyCustomRingtone:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 3. Modify extensions.conf as follows: [my-inbound-context] exten => s,1,Wait(1) 'Wait 1 so PRI has time to send Caller ID name fully exten => s,2,Answer() exten => s,3,Dial(SIP/blabla,40,m) <--the 'm' parameter plays music on hold whilst dialling. In a perfect world, the 'MyCustomRingtone.mp3' file will play, faking a ringtone to the caller

Actually that is not true. You can have a short time where audio path is open prior to answering of the call. This depends on the provider, switch and software. I think the largest window I have seen is 90 seconds.

Sometimes, it is just one way. This only works in digital network (T1/E1 to T1/E1 (CAS handoff) - the window is much shorter even in feature group "D". or T1/E1 to T1/E1 PRI signaling where the window could be as large as 90 seconds. Again, that depends on country, provider, switch software. You can't get this if you are calling POTS lines.
