similar to: mpg123 home music from stream

When I start * I get 6 mpg123 processes start as well. Is this normal? Often after a couple of days these mpg123 processes start to consume cpu and I have to kill them off. I do not have a sound card in the server and I have noload => chan_oss.so Simon

Been using mpg123 for moh for the last two years or so. However, when I have * config errors, often times get a endless stream of console messages and need to kill the two mpg123 processes. Is there an alternative to mpg123 that eliminates that issue? I see references in musiconhold.conf relative to madplay, native file format, asterisk-addons, etc. Not sure why the asterisk-addon approach

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 =>

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

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

Ok, I'm tearing my hair out trying to get Asterisk moh streaming to work. After several hours jerking around with icecast and muse, I tried to point my asterisk system directly at two streams I know work. This is what extensions.conf has: [default] mode=quietmp3 directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 [stream2] mode=custom directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3-empty

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

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

Running Asterisk 1.6.2.11 on debian 5.0.6 with mpg123 1.4.3 when i start asterisk, i immediately see two mpg123 processes spawned which sit there forever. I can't imagine it's normal behavior, but if it is, please explain :) # /etc/init.d/asterisk stop stopping asterisk. #[...] # /etc/init.d/asterisk start starting asterisk. # psg aster root 14573 1 0 16:29 pts/2 00:00:00

Anyone can share me with Music Onhold Configuration sample? Thanks in advance for your help, Kang

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

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 =>

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

Hullo :) I'm using CVS-04/23/04-23 from the stable 1.0 branch on kernel 2.6 - since I have no Digium h/w, I've just managed to get the zaprtc module to compile and run, so I thought the best way to test it would be via MoH.

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
