Hi Ikka,
I'm using asterisk 10.0.0 10.5.2 10.6.0 10.6.1 and they all leave
empty files.
Hope somebody can help.

HI,
** **
What version is your asterisk ? I’m using 10.2, 10.4. 10.6, there all have
the same problem.
I had read once, that there’s a bug in asterisk 10.4, and fixed with
patch. But if it fixed, why 10.61 still have the same problem ?
I tried to patch it (ver 10.6x), but the patching process was
unsuccessfull. Some error occurs. The problem is still there…

Mixmonitor always creates a file with 0 bytes even when the call is not
bridged. Is it possible to avoid this somehow?

This is what I do:

Set(CALLFILENAME=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)}_${CALLERID(num)});**

MixMonitor creates the file before it starts recording. The b option simply
waits until the bridge event to take audio frames and add them to the stream. I
don't really see why this is a problem. It isn't like you are going to run out
of space for zero length files, and more to the point if you really dislike the
clutter generated by having zero length files you could always run a script
after recording to check if you added a zero length file and remove it if you
did.
Are there any actual bug reports (in JIRA) you could reference though? If not,
please create one and we'll look into it.

Re: [asterisk-users] MixMonitor creating file on non-bridged calls with option b
Hi Jonathan, If I set the MixMonitor option on a queue, it will not create an zero length file if the call is not bridged, and I just assumed it would be the case with option b. I have set the fileformat to raw, but if I set it to wav it will create a 64 byte file. Off course I can delete the files in a script, but I thought I was doing something wrong. I have not made a bug report. Regards Thorben -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

I have read an earlier posts in this forum that said it was a bug in asterisk 10.4 and there's a patch to fix it. So it already reported as bug. But i use asterisk 10.61 and that bug is still there, unfixed. We upgrade to the newest version for the new feature that we can use, and also hoping for fixed bugs. But we absolutly not hoping to get an extra job fixiing the bug that has supposely has been fix...

Mailing lists (and particularly the asterisk-users list) aren't the proper place for bugs to be reported. If an issue doesn't get reported to JIRA, it doesn't go into the evaluation process and at the end of the day, developers are less likely to notice them and even more unlikely to be assigned to them. I don't doubt that someone noticed the topic and created a patch for it, but that doesn't mean the patch was applied to any build in SVN. In fact, our license agreement for writing patches can't be verified if the patch isn't uploaded to JIRA (and maybe reviewboard I think). Without that we can't even legally use the patch.

The call itself is incidental to that operation. When you use the MixMonitor option with Queue, the Queue Application is responsible for starting MixMonitor, so it won't start the MixMonitor until the call is starting. What is going into the empty wav file by the way is a header describing the contents of the file... I'm not an expert on the format, but I would assume it would be things like sample rate, number of channels, etc. For all Asterisk recordings through MixMonitor, this should be the same, so you can use that assumption for creating your deletion script as well. There are probably also utilities available which could be used to read the length of a wav file so that you can delete them based on that. If you think it's really a problem though, feel free to submit a JIRA report. -- Jonathan R.

In this case, app_queue is responsible for starting the mixmonitor application, so it simply doesn't do so until the calls are connected. I checked the issue report you mentioned in the other message, so that seems to be in order. You might want to chime in on that issue as well since issues with more activity tend to be prioritized over others. That said, I do feel the severity of this is pretty minor and it might not even really be considered a bug at all. I think getting the file created and ready before recording might even be considered an optimization. Even then though, getting rid of it if we never start recording is pretty simple. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
