Use native format audio (ulaw, alaw, gsm and the likes) not mp3. [default] mode=files directory=/home/asterisk/wdeal-plateform/var/lib/asterisk/moh-native With MP3 music-on-hold, Asterisk spawns only ONE mpg123 process (or whatever you mp3player is). Thus, you have only ONE audio stream and all your users hear the same music at the same time. It's recommended if you have a huge number of users on hold at the same time. With native format music-on-hold, Asterisk reads and streams the audio as if it were a Playback. The music start at the beginning for EACH user. So they DON'T hear the same sound at the same time. This method is know to produce better quality sound than with mp3. _______________________________________________ --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
