Re: [Asterisk-Users] Mplayer as replacement to mgp123 in MP3Player cmd
mp3 doesn't work, I recoded everything to gsm using a batch script with mplayer and sox. It took a couple of days but everything is working fine. Thanks.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Mplayer as replacement to mgp123 in MP3Player cmd
Thanks for the replies. It seems that controlplayback will fit my needs. I assume it supports : g723, g729, gsm, h263, ulaw, alaw, vox, wav and MP3? Does it support mp3 or must I recode to gsm? Controlplayback with the wealth of codecs supported by mplayer would be nice though as one of my future plans is sending a tv audio source through asterisk.

[Asterisk-Users] Mplayer as replacement to mgp123 in MP3Player cmd
There is a patch to mplayer that allows it to suppress stdout messages and instead output pcm data to stdout. I managed to get it working with app_mp3.c and seems like it is working fine. All that was needed was a change in the execl line and a slight increase in timeout value. I have only done limited testing. If mplayer is able to replace mpg123 without issues, this opens up a whole lot of media that can be piped through Asterisk. I want to be able to send a dtmf key to asterisk and have mplayer forward or rewind. I dont know much about all this stuff ( I really am not a programmer ) but I have a lot of interest in it. I use asterisk to play podcasts on my cell phone (podcasts on the road) and the forward rewind feature would be nice. Mplayer has a -slave command that allows it to read commands from stdin I think. It also has the -input parameter which allows it to read commands from a fifo. I could get the -input to work on the command line sending commands to the fifo with bash echo. However, when I am actually listening to a podcast from MP3Player in asterisk, sending a command to the fifo would cause MP3Player to respond to the command, continue playback for a short time and then exit with a No More MP3 message and a bunch of Dropping voice to exceptionally long queue Any ideas on how a forward, rewind feature can be implemented on MP3Player cmd? I have successfully used a bash script to interact with asterisk agi. My idea is to modify the app_mp3.c program to allow for a second parameter to MP3Player to pass file position value. Have app_mp3.c store the value of f-subclass into res and exit with this value whenever a key is pressed. Bash could read this value and restart the MP3Player application with a computed fileposition value as second parameter. This should achieve the result I want. Is there a simpler way? Any help or insight is appreciated.
