similar to: can't get musiconhold to work

I am trying to music on hold but I am having all sorts of problems with it. I am running RH9 and the latest version of Asterisk as of yesterday. Here is what I did to test it: 1. I manually deleted the mpg123 softlink to mpg321. 2. I downloaded mpg123-0.59r-1.n0i.src.rpm, compiled and installed the the archive and loaded ztdummy.o module. 3. I threw a couple extra files in the mohmp3 directory

Hi I thought I share this one, just in case this is an indication of some bug ... When I was trying to use music on hold at first, I didn't bother to copy any music into /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 since there was a sample- hold.mp3 in there which played just fine in a standalone MP3 player. But after uncommenting one of the lines in musiconhold.conf and doing reload on the console, there

I have the following in extensions.conf: [global] MP3ROOT=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 [default] exten => 1111,1,Answer ; Answer the line exten => 1111,2,DigitTimeout,5 ; Set Digit Timeout to 5 seconds exten => 1111,3,MP3Player(${MP3ROOT}/sample-hold.mp3) The command that runs is: 14030 pts/0 S 0:00 /usr/bin/mpg123 -q -s -b 1024 --mono -r 8000

Does anybody know why I can NOT hear the MusicOnHold - using SJphone on another PC in our network (normal playback is not a problem) . See the * output and the line configured in extension.conf below (also mp3player does not function) Any suggestions? *Asterisk output:* *CLI> -- Executing WaitMusicOnHold("SIP/jeroen-bf54", "30") in new stack --

I've followed the docs on how to configure musiconhold. I then added an extension to test it like this: exten => 6601,1,WaitMusicOnHold(30) And when I dial that extension I do hear something for 30 seconds - but it is not what I'd call music... it sounds more like the sound effects from a scifi flick - now and then it sounds like jail cell doors closing and echoing. Kinda cool but

Hi On my FC3 box with asterisk 1.0.9....MusicOnHold is not working. It starts and stops immediately... An unknow option mono comes...from where it is originating.?? As there is nothing written in .conf file. Console output is below: I am using mpg123 version 0.59r. Although I am able to play music with mpg123 but why it is on No-cooperation movement against asterisk ? Need help..any

This is my second attempt trying to get help and I am hoping someone can. When the musiconhold extension is matched, Asterisk attempts to execute musiconhold and stops right away, this is what I gets: Executing MusicOnHold("OSS/dsp", "") in new stack -- Started music on hold, class 'default', on OSS/dsp -- Stopped music on hold on OSS/dsp Is there a file that

I have searching the forums here on how to get Music On Hold working and I have been able to get * to accept a command for MusicOnHold and for Meetme after loading the ztdummy module. I used the default config for /etc/zaptel.conf since I saw no guidance on this. My problem now is that when I activate MusicOnHold, the sample music file sounds very slow and distorted. My best guess is that it is

I'm trying to get musiconhold to work w/ my Asterisk system, and I'm not having much success yet. First, I noticed that nothing happened even after I had enabled all of the options in zapata.conf & setup a sample extension in extensions.conf. Then I read something about how Asterisk uses mpg123 to play the files. I discovered that this had not been installed on my system, so I

Trying to test the music on hold function and can't seem to get it to work. If anyone has it running, could you give me a clue? (I have googled and found lots of questions, but no real suggestions.) I downloaded and installed the mpg123 package. From the RH9 console I can start the executable and hear the music via the speakers. The executable is located in /usr/bin. (That works!) I set the

Does anybody have a good source for hold music? I can see a number of companies on the web that sell royalty-free MOH, but they don't all provide samples. The customer service desk has requested "calming, not sleeping, but calming" and "this is a high-tech company, so make it 'techie' [sic]". Thanks, --Ernest

Would anyone mind emailing me, or maybe posting somewhere their music on hold .so file? thx -ben

I installed Asterisk 1.0.9 in a Freebsd 5.4 ( with no zaptel card); I have 2 zoom x5v and works great ( in extensions 123 and 321 ) but I was trying to test cmd Playback, MusicOnHold, MP3Player but when I call to extension 100 I don't hear the sound ( mp3 or gsm that I put) , I only hear noise If I leave a message in a mailbox the same, all the record is noise --------- extensionns.conf

Hi everybody, I'm receiving the message "res_musiconhold.c:309 monmp3thread: Request to schedule in the past?!?!" in asterisk console when I try to put a call on hold. I don't the reason and I'm sure the relative module is loaded. In musiconhold.conf I put these lines, trying something I found in some previous post: ; ; Music on hold class definitions ; [classes]

Hello, I just can't seem to get the MusicOnHold function to work out ok. I' managed to get the MP3Player app to work out fine, but when I run the MusicOnHold all i get is siliece. I can see that Asterisk executes mpg123 properly (I think) #ps axuww|grep mp gk 4383 0.0 0.4 3736 552 pts/4 S 15:06 0:00 /usr/bin/mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 -f 8192 sample-hold.mp3

Hi, I've looked high and low for any changes that streaming MoH needs on Asterisk 1.4 (.21), followed NerdVittle's article about it (http://nerdvittles.com/index.php?p=92) yet nothing worked. After creating dir stream/ and touch stream.mp3, here's my musiconhold.conf [stream] mode=mp3 directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3/stream stream =>

I have read every thread, I have Redhat 9, Asterisk 1.0.6, 2 T1 lines connected via TE405P. Everything works great, except MOH. I added an exten with MusicOnHold(30), and it plays just fine. Conferences have music when no one is in. I have SIP phones. When I place a call on hold, the CLI give no indication the call is on hold. I have set musiconhold(default) everywhere, removed it from everywhere,
