asterisk users - Oct 2010 - using better quality wav or mp3 in Asterisk 1.2.x

Hello,

I would need a little help about using 16 bit wav or mp3 files for moh on
asterisk 1.2.x

When i try to use these files as moh, the caller gets disconnected.

 

Please advise.

Regards,

Z. Zivanovic

What codec(s) are your calls using? You would be better off converting them
before hand.

Also, what is sample rate on your wav/mp3 files? Asterisk is picky about
wanting 8000hz sample rate. Newer asterisk may support 16khz sample rate as
well. You are most likely dealing with 44.1khz material.
