Since I just went through at least a part of the above, I think the following might be an approach to consider. Download 'asterisk-addons' (if you don't already have it). cd /usr/src/asterisk-addons/format_mp3 and read the README file. The 'make clean install' Then, in /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf, [default] ; mode=quietmp3 mode=files directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 Stop and restart asterisk. mpg123 is no longer in use. The above works just fine with the asterisk-provided musiconhold files located in the above mohmp3 directory. If you add other mp3 files into that directory, you might have to convert them per the README. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
