Hi All; I noticed in the queues.conf the configuration for recording the calls in the queuing, and regarding to the filename (or any other parameter), it is written that I can determine the filename using the command: Set(MONITOR_FILENAME=foo) But it should be called from the dialing plan, but really i did not understand how to call it from the dialing plan. Well, for example this is my

Hello list, I posted a couple of tutorials lately, maybe someone can benefit from them: The first tutorial explains how to transform your Asterisk call recordings (in WAV or GSM) to lo-fi MP3 to save a lot of space. It's actually pretty easy to implement using a makefile. http://astrecipes.net/index.php?n=294 The other tutorial lets you implement a way to monitor all outgoing traffic

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

Hello Asterisk Users, I guess the subject says the most of it; here goes some more detail: - Running Asterisk 1.2.14 - Objective: record all calls managed by a specific queue - Name those files ${TIMESTAMP}-${CALLERIDNUM}-${UNIQUEID} Facts: - If the UNIQUEID chan var is used in the MONITOR_FILENAME, before calling the Queue() application, the two legs of the call are not

Hello list, after spending the best part of an afternoon trying to build Asterisk on an old EPIA VIA C3, I thought that writing a tutorial would make life easier for future compilers: http://astrecipes.net/index.php?n=356 I had never compiled Asterisk for a different architecture, and I'm pretty disappointed at how complex it is - building Zaptel, Libpri and Asterisk requires

In my * box I've configured two queues and incoming number and whenever any one calls those number call comes to my *box and it sends call to my agents in queue. but if no agent is available it still answer the call.

Hi I have this in my queue extension and I see this in asterisk when I call to the queue, but no file is created in the directory any ideas? exten => s,1,Set(MONITOR_FILENAME=/var/spool/asterisk/queuecalls/QSAMPLE-${UNIQUEID}) -- Executing [s at kundservice:1] Set("SIP/0850001175-b7942770", "MONITOR_FILENAME=/var/spool/asterisk/queuecalls/QSAMPLE-1228382046.12") Regards

Hi all, What's the best method to send automon call recordings (*1) to the voicemail box of the Asterisk user? Do you have to trap hangups, etc, or is there some global variable that can be set? Thanks! S.

Hi all Does anybody know where this command is supposed to go? Set(MONITOR_EXEC=mv /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/^{MONITOR_FILENAME} /tmp/^{MONITOR_FILENAME}) In the queues.conf file it talks about it. So I naturally thought after I set up my monitor with monitor-format = wav monitor-type = MixMonitor That I could put a lame command in there to convert and move the file elsewhere for backup with

Hello list, I have been researching a bit into the way the queue app works and how different timeouts play together, and have prepared a short tutorial on understanding queue timeouts - see http://www.oinko.net/astrecipes/index.php?n=118 - any suggestion, error found or correction is welcome. While I was at it, I came across a strange bug: imageine you have three callback agents

Guys, if you define recording on queues.conf and also define a monitor_filename var on your dialplna, you can record a queue call but, isthere a way to do something with the file after the call ends? I need to move the file to some other place but I cant find where to define a command to run after a queue call finishes. Any hints?

All, I am trying to set a monitor file from the queue.conf as specified on http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+queues.conf In order to avoid the default MONITOR_FILENAME format wich is: "agent-xxxxx-uniqueid.wav" for example "agent-10017-1266438575-26.wav" As you may now, when using the queue command you are not able to know which agent will take the call,

Hello guys, I recently observed that my asterisk sends me sms like messages on my phone (Nokia E71), I mean is SMS but is delivered some kind in-band though VoIP.

Hi, I've an PRI coming to my asterisk ,calls are coming fine and my agents are able to answer no prob. but I've an agreement with my telco with some incoming no if the no of calls on these no are more then 3 then send to another no. they use busy signal to divert call on another number so I'm sending the call to Congestion() if no of calls in this group are more then 3.
