Hello
Happy New Year! I succesfully installed the Ports of Zaptel BSD 1.4.0
and Asterisk 1.4.13 (that's the latest in the Ports). To save CPU, I'd
like to play PCM WAV files instead of eg. GSM. Per...
www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Convert+WAV+audio+files+for+use+in+Asterisk
... I recorded a sample of my voice using XP's Sound Recorder, then
ran the following :
sox test_wav.wav -r 8000 -c 1 -s -w test_wav_out.wav resample -ql
But it seems like I'm missing the codec or something:
========== -- Executing [s at default:2]
Playback("SIP/2000-0871d000",
"/usr/local/lib/asterisk/test_wav_out.wav") in new stack

WARNING[37390]: file.c:866 ast_streamfile: Unable to open

Am I missing something in the configuration files, or maybe I'm
missing some module?
Thank you.

It seems from the console output that you have specified the extension of the filename in your dialplan. That doesn't work with asterisk. All you need to do is specify the name of the file you want to play without the extension like s,2,Playback(/usr/local/lib/asterisk/test_wav_out) And asterisk will automatically pickup the file that it can play with any asterisk supported format from the specified path. -- Godson Gera, http://godson.in Asterisk India -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That way you don't have to worry about specifying particular format moreover there is no provision to do that in Playback application. You can see translation costs by typing the following in console. core show translation -- Godson Gera, http://godsongera.blogspot.com Asterisk India Developer -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
