Hello everyone,
I am having a bit of problem getting MusicOnhold to play.
I am running Asterisk 1.4 with MPG123 0.59 installed.
And here's what i see in the debugging window of asterisk:
-- Started music on hold, class 'default', on channel
'SIP/x123-082043d0'
-- Stopped music on hold on SIP/x123-082043d0
Any idea why it is not playing the file at all?
thanks
Eric

Once you install addons don't forget to set mode=files in musiconhold.conf -- Godson Gera, http://godson.in -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you downsample this to a 8kHz 16 bits per sample mono wav file you'll get a file which may be even smaller and will not take any special transcoding to play by Asterisk on each time. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com +972-50-7952406 mailto:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com http://www.xorcom.com iax:guest at local.xorcom.com/tzafrir
