[asterisk-users] How to send a digit to a channel??
Hello! I need to send a digit to a channel of an established call, from outside of Asterisk, I suppose it must be from the AMI. I want to send a * for example, but in addition to reproducing the sound of that digit (I dont care thatl), I need that the digit sent actually performs an action. For example if I have configured that the attended transfer in Asterisk is #2, I need somehow to be able to send the # and the 2 for the transfer menu begins. Any help with this??? I have proved with PlayDTMF, but all it does is play the sound of the digit, but nothing happens... Please need help! Thank you very much.

[asterisk-users] video support with voicemail question
Hi, I'm trying to get voicemail to record video as well as audio. So far, only audio is recorded. I'm using files instead of the ODBC or IMAP. I'm running 1.6.1 beta code (I've tried several versions here). I've also tried running the video branch code and get similar results. I can run the echo application with both video and audio, so I'm confident that I have my sip and other configuration files set up for video. I can also make video SIP calls fine using H.263 or H.264 My voicemail.conf file looks like (pardon my text editor, it seems to demand that the first letter of each line gets changed to caps) [general] Format=wav|gsm|h263|h264 [default] 3131 = 1234, test mailbox, jonathan.gallme...@polycom.com, tz=central|attach=yes My extensions.conf has a simple test configuration that looks like: [general] Static=yes Autofallthrough=yes [default] Exten = 3131,1,Voicemail(3...@default,u) Exten = 3131,n,Hangup() Exten = 6060,1,VoiceMailMain() Like I said, everything works fine for leaving an audio voicemail. Video is just not recorded even though I'm calling in with a video call to my voicemail extension (3131). Does the voicemail app record video as I've seen stated in several places? Am I missing something big here?

There is also a /etc/crontab file you can use to setup something more complicated if needed (ie: runing it every 2 hours, running at tea time...). read 'man cron', and 'man crontab'. You also need to install the magic part, 'curlftps'. in Debian that's the name of the package too. I use version curlftpfs 0.9.1 libcurl/7.18.2 fuse/2.5 Be careful that in *nix, file.WAV and file.wav are different files. Here is the script: #!/bin/sh MOUNT_POINT=/mnt/remote_ftp FTP_HOST=www.ftphost.com/htdocs/recordings FTP_USER=ftpusername:difficultpassword RECORDINGS=/var/spool/asterisk/monitor/upload echo Starting upload `date` echo Connecting to $FTP_HOST... curlftpfs -o user=$FTP_USER $FTP_HOST $MOUNT_POINT echo Transfering `du -hc $RECORDINGS/*.wav | grep total` ... mv -vf $RECORDINGS/*.wav $MOUNT_POINT echo Disconnecting. umount $MOUNT_POINT exit 0 -- Iván Stepaniuk Alba Fotónica S.

[asterisk-users] asterisk dialplan to share fax line
Hi I look after a site which is using asterisk and a vsp for its primary telco needs, so I am on holiday for a week and of course some jack arse has decided to reboot the server and something has gone wrong with the remote access. Now they don't have any internet and i can't fix it remotely. Bad for them because they don't have any inbound call capabilities, they do have outbound via the fallback pstn line connected to the asterisk box, which is also a fax line - its primary useage. So what i would like to to when i get back is to setup the pstn line to be a backup inbound line as well. shared fax and normal phone line. How can I work the dial plan to 1) pickup the call 2) if its a fax hold the line till the fax machine takes over or will now that asterisk has picked up the line I have a tdm410 card with fxo + fxs ports. do I attach the fax machine to the asterisk server and just treat it as a extension, but letting all its outbound calls go through the pstn line on the tdm card - will the fax work that way ? the question is still how to I deal with inbound calls/faxes ?

Re: [asterisk-users] Call Recording and Posting
On Behalf Of Ivan Stepaniuk The script is very simple and far from complete, it just moves the content into the mounted FTP directory. It has some verbose output as it is run from inside another script that redirects the output to a log file. What happens if the script is run while a recording is being written? Will it copy the incomplete file and then delete it? The script has a password inside so remember to 'chown root' and 'chmod 700' the file to protect it from other users. If you used sshfs you could use public keys and eliminate the password hassles. Personally, I'd still vote for uploading the file at the completion of the recording via an AGI. -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] Call Recording and Posting
Hi, To avoid the problem of deleting/copying calls that are still being recorded, I could record the call into a temp directory. Then using the dial plan, I could copy the temp recording into the ftp root directory once the call has ended. Dan Thank you for contacting Kesher Communications Ltd.

Wouldn't make sense to connect those two asterisk through SIP or IAX via Internet instead of calling via PSTN anyway? Anyway, In this case it seems that this is not asterisk related, try the several Sipura/Linksys settings related to DTMF, also if the asterisk boxes are the only thing your ATA connects to, there is no point on using the auto mode. Check the relaxed dtmf setting on yhe linksys, and also check the Impedance, Rx and Tx gain, As well as the DTMF duration, All this knobs can mess up your DTMF tones if there is something wrong.

The problem was caused by echo, changing impedance to 900 and decreasing SPA to PSTN and PSTN to SPA gain to -3 solved the problem. -- Joseph ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

True, but if you need to execute a process at the end of the call, why not make it an AGI and hide all the ugly details and keep your dialplan nice and clean and shiny and maintainable? Your recordings will be instantly available and the correct operation of your system does not depend on an externally scheduled external process involving clear-text passwords and obscure packages. Your successor will thank you :) -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
