Two things (the first applies to everyone, not just yourself): 1. PLEASE, when starting a new topic, DON'T reply to an existing message, but instead, create a new message. Otherwise your message gets threaded in with other non-related messages. Having just read your message, I wanted to go back and find it again so I could reply, but it was buried in the middle of a three-week-old thread! 2. I'm not sure what the original reason was, but you will find the folliwing URL interesting, as a source of Asterisk prompts re-done in various file formats: http://www.astlinux.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=38&Itemid=43 In my opinion, any new Asterisk sounds should be put in the tree in four formats at least: .wav, .al, .ul, .gsm Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.softins.co.uk Play: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://tony.mountifield.org _______________________________________________ --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
