similar to: music on hold without sound card

Hey guys. Im trying to setup Music on Hold. If I transfer a call (with dial) I like to put the call on Music on hold.. Here's what I've tried so far: On my I extensions.conf exten =>1,1,WaitMusicOnHold(30) exten =>1,2,Dial(SIP/mateo,18) exten =>1,3,VoiceMail(1001) I have also added this line to [context].. So it looks like that: ;[context] musiconhold=default Additinaly,

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

This may sound kind of crazy and I maybe missing something. But are you placing the call on hold so you can hear the hold music. This may not be the case but you may have to place the call on hold to here the music. Also you mentioned sound, you do not need a sound card in the asterisk box to use this hold music feature. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From:

Hi there, I just tried today's CVS: 4/23/2004 version and found a strange loise with music on hold. Basically, when on hold you hear very distorted music as if it was very loud. This is the exact same problem described last year at: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-April/009735.html http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-May/011688.html No answers on

Hello list, after the last time that mpg123 wen ballistic on our production system, we decided to skip mp3 playback altogether and to go for raw files. After half an hour playing with mpg123 and sox parameters in order to translate a mp3 file to a wav file that can be streamed back through * with no need for an mp3 decoder, I thought I'd post the result to the list to avoid wasting

Hi, I've recently installed Asterisk and have got the majority of it configured (what an excellent piece of software it is, too), but I'm having a couple of problems. The first one is with music on hold! I've downloaded and installed mpg123 as specified: ># whereis mpg123 >mpg123: /usr/local/bin/mpg123 It's the correct version: >#

Hi Guys, I am having trouble trying to get format_mp3 working to play music on hold. I have followed the instructions in the read-me and the wiki however it seems after un-installing mpg123, asterisk is not even attempting to play MOH. My musiconhold.conf is ; Music on hold class definitions ; [classes] [moh_files] default = >/var/lib/asterisk/moh-native ;default =>

I am having a problem getting music on hold working one of my servers. I have had this working on a PII 400 just fine but decided to upgrade my Asterisk server to a PIV 1.5ghz. I have installed mpg123 which seems to be working fine but when I start *, I get the following error message at the CLI prompt when I start *: WARNING[81931]: File chan_oss.c, Line 232 (sound_thread): Read error on

We find that mpg123 0.59r works best. mpg123 0.59s-mh4 = the devil.

This is where I no longer understand how to correlate the three items. I have mpg123

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,

I've tried getting this running but mpg123 won't spawn. It spawns fine for the files but if I try streaming she doesn't work. I've tried with just about every stream at somafm.com w/o success. I can play them locally though. When I try to play them from the server from the command line I get: # mpg123 -s --mono -r 8000 -b 2048 http://160.79.128.40:8052 High Performance MPEG

This is my musiconhold.conf and my folder: root@voip:/etc/asterisk# less musiconhold.conf [classes] default => quietmp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ;loud => mp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ;random => mp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3,-z ;unbuffered => mp3nb:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ;quietunbuf => quietmp3nb:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ; Note that the custom mode cannot handle escaped parameters

Ok, this falls under the newbie category: Has anybody created any documentation on using musiconhold or call parking? I have found sample config files for musiconhold, but I'm not sure how they work. [musiconhold.conf] [classes] loud=>mp3:/var/lib/asteriks/mohmp3 How do I then set up this feature in extensions.conf? I can't seem to find an example of what I'm looking for (or I

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.

Hi, I made the mistake of upgrading both my Linux box (to Ubuntu 6.06) and Asterisk (to 1.2.9.1) at the same time. Now, when trying to compile mpg123 - using the tried and true "make mpg123" -, the build fails with an error make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/asterisk-1.2.9.1/mpg123-0.59r' make[3]: *** No rule to make target `\ ', needed by `mpg123'. Stop. Maybe

All, I've been setting up an Asterisk PBX over the past few days and I stumbled across a problem with mpg123 that I have not seen documented anywhere. If you put mp3 files into your mohmp3 directory and these files have ID3v2 tags, mpg123 will throw an error message "Found new ID3 Header", regardless of the -q flag. This, in turn, will cause Asterisk to crash (yes), although

I've only gotten to hear Music On Hold once. I am running the right version of mpg123 .059r as downloaded from mpg123.de and compiled locally So I'm looking for any help on getting this up and running. I can see on the console that the SIP phone is placing the call on hold, but there is no audio coming out on the other phone. Mucho, thanks john

What is a good solution for playing music on hold on the 1.2 branch. I do not want to use mpg123 because last time I used it in a production server it caused many problems. The MPG123 process was taking about 60% of my Xeon CPU. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I've noticed that native music on hold volume seems to be very loud sometimes. Is there anyway to turn this down? I know when using mpg123 I can set "quietmp3" but what about when using native?
