similar to: Using Asterisk to play Icecast streams

Steve, These are live streams of events so I can't simply rip the audio. As I mentioned at the end of my email putting in a sleep did help a bit however there are only so many streams Asterisk will grab nicely at once with out spiking the CPU. I also tinkered a bit with real time here is what I found: 1) If we have cachertclasses=no then Asterisk will only pull the stream if some one is

Hi Folks, I'm currently trying to configure musiconhold (on a asterisk-1.4.17) for replaying a live mp3-stream (Icecast2). after reading the related material on voip-info and several other pages, I've successfully tried out mpg132, madplay and mplayer to pipe a stream into moh. however, there is one major problem involving some kind of buffer-issue. let me try to explain this problem

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

I'm trying to setup my asterisk system for the least overhead as possible. My understanding (and experience with other systems) leads me to believe I can run any MOH using a certain class through a single 'player' as opposed to starting an independent stream for each MOH instance. However, try as I might, I can not get it to work. When I throw two calls into a queue, they are both

Hello, I need to play some musiconhold content starting at a random duration from the start. Thanks to mode=custom option and either madplay or mpg123 programs, I could successfully get what I was after on a Debian Wheezy system. Now I realized sox version on my target system (Debian Squeeze) cannot convert to MP3 format. So I'm looking after workarounds. 0. I've read many mpg123 or

Hi all, I'm trying to get moh working on * version 1.4.4. I've setup a test extension that answers the call and runs the musiconhold command with the appropriate class name. All I get on the phone is silence. The console tells me that moh started and immediately stopped, but it complains that there is "No class: moh0" *CLI> [Feb 22 12:17:36] WARNING[31142]:

Hi, After following the suggestions on the mailing lists and the wiki I'm still experiencing choppy moh. The song plays but with frequent noise parts. - I'm using asterisk 1.2.4 on our production server and 1.2.7 on the test server. - native moh with .gsm and .pcm formats (according to http://astrecipes.net/?n=152) - compiled ztdummy as a timing source any pointers on how to dig deeper

Hi all, I have a user who would like to stream their favorite radio station from iHeart radio for their music on hold. It this TECHNICALLY possible? If so, any pointers would be appreciated. Is this LEGAL in the US? Thanks in advance, Mike. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

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

Thanks Joshua and everyone, Joshua's solution seems a lot simpler and works well. Only one thing now - The reason I named the classes as I did, was so that I could select the class based on callerID plus extension. Unless I've misread it, I'm limited to 9 switchable classes via the "digit=#" option, is that correct? Or is there a clever hack around this? extensions.conf

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

Hi list, I have a strange comportment of the MOH system on my asterisk. When i respond to a call and after fews second i set this call in hold mode the correspondent listen the music fine. When i re-take my correspondent at T0 instant the music is paused. And when i re-hold him at T60 (60 second later) the sound is always at T0 when he was stopped at T0. So the music is stopped and don't

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'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

Has anyone managed to set up a moh server for Asterisk? Reason would be to offload processing off the asterisk box, onto another system. The wiki is a bit light on details. If anyone managed to get it up and working, what software did you use on the server side, and what client app did you use? Mpg123? Mpg321? Madplayer? Something else? Also, putting legal ramifications aside, it'd be nifty

Hey all; I am experiencing an issue with music on Hold. I am running asterisk version 1.4.22, and have a default script set up in two places for MoH playback. For internal devices to my network that are SIP peering with asterisk, they simply dial 123 and hear the MoH music immediately. I'm using the default setup, where it just plays the wave files in the /var/lib/asterisk/moh directory. I

Hello list, is it normal that when adding new moh-files to the directory /var/lib/asterisk/moh/, asterisk does not see these new files ?! When I do a "moh reload", then Asterisk is aware of the new files... Is there a solution that does not need a "moh reload" ?! Kind regards, Jonas. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

My experience told me that mp3player (command) was rather unreliable with shoutcast. I heard nothing. If I use madplay in musiconhold.conf, everything is ok. But, using mp3player in extensions.conf is better than using MoH. Pls kindly advise if we could use madplay in extensions.conf. Could we put it into system command? Best Rgds, ????????????????????????????????????????

Where can I find alaw, ulaw, gsm, g729 formats for native music on hold? I have some mp3 files and I have tried to transcode them to above, but it seams that SOX can't do that. Please, tell me where to download some MOH files (in above formats) or how to transcode mp3? Thank you for your time! -- Tomislav Parcina tparcina#lama.hr
