similar to: Asterisk and MOH for Queues

Calling all members of the asterisk community, I am posting about an old issue that has been reported many places and times online, To my amazement, there has yet to be anyone that has reported any solutions to the following problem. "Initially when putting callers on hold, it plays between 30 and 60 seconds of old audio that was on the stream in the past. Then after that 30-60 seconds, it

I was playing today with the different queueing strategies in queues.conf when I noticed the following behavior. I have 4 agents defined in a queue in queues.conf. These agents login using AgentCallbackLogin. The strategy in the queue is set to leastrecent. I place four calls into the queue and * sends only one call to the least recently used agent. If that agent does not pick up, the

Hi list, I've always about 50 concurrent SIP callers listening to several MOH streams (fed via mpg123) on Asterisk 11.4.0, 4x 2.2 GHz and the CPU usage is always at about 250% causing stuttering of the streams and delays when using Read() and Playback() (overall everything is just really slow/delayed). I've seen Asterisk doing that when the MOH stream that was fed via mpg123 was

Has anyone noticed a problem with runaway mpg123 processes for music-on-hold eating up ~100% CPU and driving the load on the machine way up? I've seen this problem consistently with multiple Asterisk installs, 1.2.x and 1.4.x, although admittedly it was more common with 1.2.x as far as I can tell. There is no clearly identifiable sequence of events that causes this to occur, although it

I've tried a number of solutions, but I've been unable to get Asterisk working with streaming MOH without running into the "buffer" issue. I've tried using various combinations madplay, mpg123, mpg321. I've also tried streamplayer by itself, and in combination with play-fifo ( http://www.freeswitch.org/asterisk_stuff/play-fifo.c ) to try and eliminate the issue. For

I am having trouble getting streaming MOH to work. As far as I can tell I have everything configured properly but there is only silence. Your help is appreciated. I am running Asterisk 1.8.11-cert10 with mpg123 1.12.1 to play the stream (I have tried madplay, and mpg321, and I compiled streamplayer as well with the same results). I started by finding a working stream and tested this from the shell

I have two asterisk machines. One of them has a Digium board (server A) and the other is simply using ztdummy (server B). Server A is running on Debian and Server B is running Gentoo. Server A is running Asterisk CVS-Nv1-0-7-06/01/05-01:27:25 and Server B is running Asterisk 1.0.7. The problem I have is that when I try to transfer a call into a meetme room in server B, it simply hangs

Hi list, I'm streaming live mp3 streams (web radios) via mplayer and mpg123 using MusicOnHold. Often, one or two of the streams die during the day and I have to restart (not reload) Asterisk to bring it back. "moh reload" on the console doesn't do anything. This is suboptimal if there are active callers, of course. Is there any way to restart the MOH system without

Hi folks! I'm having a problem where my music on hold is just blaring to my callers. I've tried several different formats (converting using mpg123 and sox) and adjusted my musiconhold.conf to use quietmp3, to no avail. Every file plays way too loud. I did notice that sox has a -v flag for adjusting volume, but danged if I can find documentation online that'll tell me what

Can anyone recommend a company that does professional Asterisk recordings for things like IVR, greetings, MOH, announcements, etc? Thanks, Waldo

I am using CVS-v1-0-04/20/05-12:31:26. Windows Messenger5.1 works MOH fine. After I stop MOH on Windows Messenger, if the hungup signal could not send to *, the sip channel(e.g.,SIP/52001-08ca) for this MOH remains. Then the user trys again MOH, a new sip channel starts. And again the hugup signal can not send to *,......... When I 'stop now' from CLI> , * cleanups the remaining sip

You could try to use the native mp3 support for MOH if you really want mp3 support. It is a lot better than using mpg123 IMHO. mpg123 kept doing nasty things to my system :) See http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk%20config%20musicon hold.conf there is a section about the native support.

Guys.. Ive noticed that I have 2 mpg123 processes running, is that ok? also... can you make MOH random? Also, I dont know if there is a problem with my config but when listening to MOH, every 3 or so second I get a click sound which notices because music gets a hickup every 3 or so seconds... is this ok? __________________________________________________________________ Anton Krall

Hey all, I have read on voip-info.org that to configure MoH asterisk requires the use of mpg123. I have installed mpg123 and restarted asterisk. But, when i put a call on hold i get this error: May 25 14:13:03 WARNING[1872]: res_musiconhold.c:865 local_ast_moh_start: No class: default Can you help, Thanks yusuf

Has anybody has issues with the new Native MOH and IAX trunking when placing a call on hold? My scenario, Call is placed on a Definity G3 via PRI to Asterisk. Gets trunked over to another Asterisk system via IAX2. Call is answered by operator and placed on hold. At that point, audio is very broken and feedback pulsing is heard. Bad enough that the caller hangs up. If the call is
