Ok, I'm tearing my hair out trying to get Asterisk moh streaming to work.
After several hours jerking around with icecast and muse, I tried to point my
asterisk system directly at two streams I know work.
This is what extensions.conf has:
[default]
mode=quietmp3
directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
[stream2]
mode=custom
directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3-empty
application=http://pubint.ic.llnwd.net/stream/pubint_wnpr
and this is how I am testing it:
exten => 1234,1,Answer
exten => 1234,2,SetMusiconHold(stream2)
exten => 1234,3,WaitmusiconHold(60)
exten => 1234,4,Hangup
and this is the console output I get when I dial 1234:
Asterisk Ready.
*CLI> -- Executing Answer("SIP/3250072-ed28", "") in
new stack
-- Executing SetMusicOnHold("SIP/3250072-ed28",
"stream2") in new stack
-- Executing WaitMusicOnHold("SIP/3250072-ed28", "60")
in new stack
-- Started music on hold, class 'stream2', on channel
'SIP/3250072-ed28'
-- Stopped music on hold on SIP/3250072-ed28
If I replace SetMusiconHold(stream2) with SetMusiconHold(default), I get the
default music on hold. Running ngrep on port 80 shows me that the Asterisk
system is not sending or receiving ANY data on port 80. What am I doing wrong?
Yes, it has network and DNS connectivity.
Can't believe it's this hard!
Doug.
Try this: musiconhold.conf: [stream2] mode=mp3 directory=http://pubint.ic.llnwd.net/stream/pubint_wnpr extensions.conf: exten => 1234,1,Answer exten => 1234,2,MusicOnHold(stream2) exten => 1234,3,Hangup On Wed, 2006-02-22 at 09:28 -0700, Douglas Garstang wrote:> Ok, I'm tearing my hair out trying to get Asterisk moh streaming to work.

Thanks. I got it working. Yay. Now, it seems that Asterisk is very fussy with the streams. A lot don't work, especially when the URL ends in something.pls. Anyone know if that's true? Is Asterisk's support of this still pretty limited?

I spent a days or two on this and in the end did Musiconhold.conf [livestream1] mode=custom application=/usr/local/bin/mpg123 -s --mono -y -f 8192 -r 8000 -@ /etc/asterisk/stream.playlist Then in stream.playlist I just put the links from Shoutcast I wanted to use http://64.236.34.67:80/stream/1040 http://64.236.34.196:80/stream/1040 Regards Lee -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Douglas Garstang Sent: 22 February 2006 21:18 To: jaugenstine@stoneeyes.com; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Streaming Music On Hold Thanks.
