I think (since Linux Asterisk is set up for this) the FreeBSD Asterisk port should be set up to play MoH "out of the box".

This means either

1) putting mpg123 as a dependency...
2) putting madplay as a dependency...
3) having neither, and patching moh.conf and converting default file(s) to native format as part of the installation process.

Personally I'm inclined towards 2 as the middle ground...

So while the asterisk can playback mp3 files using native format mode, without using mpg123 or madplay, you're still inclined towards installing an extra port/program?

It can? I thought it could only play GSM/WAV files. If it can play mp3 files directly, unassisted, then option 3 changes to: 3) having neither, and patching moh.conf to specifiy this as the default MOH mode.
[and becomes my 1st preference].

If files have to be converted (by a separate process) from mp3 _into_ native mode (which was, ISTR, my understanding of the docs) then since this "separate process" would need to be a build dependency - or we'd need to lose "out-of-the-box" MOH support - there'd be no real win from dropping madplay/mpg123 from the run dependencies.

Actually probably the best thing would be to provide some build options for the port so that you can specifiy with/without madplay/mpg123 and make everyone happy :-).
