Hello, I have installed SlimServer for Windows on my desktop and Asterisk on a Red Hat Linux machine. I am able to play mp3's for music on hold when mp3s are on the Linux server, and to play streaming mp3's with Windows Media Player and Winamp on Windows using the slim server. I also have mpg123 on my Linux, apparently installed correctly, since it works for local moh. I put the

Has anyone on here used kiax before? I am asking because I have it installed on several computers and have been able to get it to connect and register to my Asterisk box. I can even call between them and my SIP softphones. The problem I am having is this: when I use kiax to call someone else, they get some kind of background music playing while I am talking to them. I have called from kiax to

So I decided, for the formal asterisk rollout, to change over to less commercially-infringing MOH than the prior admin had thrown on the server. (plus: it was blown out and nasty sounding over the phones. Ew.) I changed the files in /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 to something else (can't dig up the link, but it was from the voip-info wiki). My musiconhold.conf looks like this: ; ; Music on

Folks, I have somewhat of a serious issue here. My music on hold mysteriously stopped working. I have made no changes to my Asterisk box in the past month and up until an hour ago, MoH was working fine (as far as I know).

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

Hello everyone. I had heard about this open-source PBX once a while back. I wasn't too interested in it at the time but I kept the info filed away for possible future use. A couple of days ago, I was walking around Barnes and Nobles and I found this book, called Asterisk: The Future of Telephony. I paged through it a little and I was really excited by what I read. Then I remembered the

hi on a server i've installed slackware 10.2 and Asterisk Version 1.2.4 Zaptel Version 1.2.4 Libpri Version 1.2.2 I'm experiencing problem with moh, the music is correctly started: Started music on hold, class 'default', on channel 'Zap/1-1' but i don't hear anything... i heard something like a "fiiiiiiiiiiiii" very very low the server is without a sound

Hey guys, I'm trying to get music on hold working. I have a wav file. It plays fine on my windows laptop in all sorts of audio applications. If I put it on our asterisk 1.2.4 box and do something like: sox -V nov_2005.wav /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3/nov_2005.raw sox: Detected file format type: wav sox: Chunk fmt sox: Chunk fact sox: Chunk data sox: Reading Wave file: Microsoft U-law format, 1

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.

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

Basically, I am looking to set up an extension which will be used as a "help-line". I want it to function kind of like the bat phone from the old Batman series, where Commissioner Gordon would pick up the extension in his office and it would ring the phone back at Wayne's mansion. Is there a way to duplicate this functionality with Asterisk? I just need asterisk to auto-dial an

Hi All, I have just compiled the newest version of mpg123 on a RedHat 9.0 system (mpg321 has not been installed) and I am using the newest CVS version of asterisk. Whenever I place any mp3 files in the /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3/ directory, Asterisk crashes a horrible fiery death. If mp3s exist in that directory, then I can't even start Asterisk. If I start it without files then copy

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

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'd like to use native moh instead of with mpg123... for some reason the processes never bloody die. For native moh to not spawn an external player, I'd need to convert the default supplied moh sound files in /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 to ulaw and g729 format. Anyone know of a free, easy way to convert them? Thanks, Doug.

I'm using * 1.0.3 on Gentoo 2004.3, zaprtc from bri-stuff for timing. When I put a caller on hold, the volume of the hold music in the callers ear is extremely loud. I'm using the default entry from the musiconhold.conf: default => quietmp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 Volumes with a called or calling party are fine, it's just the hold music volume that seems to be way off
