[asterisk-users] Log to file in Asterisk: append with newline
Hi all, (I am testing on Asterisk 11.7.0~dfsg-1ubuntu1) I am using the following format to append to a logfile, according to the documentation http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+func+FILE: same = n,Set(FILE(/tmp/mylog.txt,,,a)=my-log-message) But this does not append a newline. So I am trying: same = n,Set(FILE(/tmp/mylog.txt,,,al)=my-log-message) But this does not append (instead, it just overwrites - surprisingly, since the documentation says that this should append!). How can I append *and* make sure that a newline is added after the log message? Thanks, Daniel Gonzalez -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Passing literals with commas to subroutine
Hi, Let's say I do: Set(data=xxx,yyy) Gosub(my-sub,s,1(${data})) My subroutine will only receive xxx for ARG1. How can I pass a literal with a comma to a single argument in a subroutine? (The point is: when calling the subroutine I do not know if the variable has a comma or not.)

[asterisk-users] chanspy (whispering) and Mixmonitor
Dear all, i'm using Chanspy to dynamically play a sound file on a specific channel. It works the caller and the callee can hear the file playing during their conversation. However, i'm also using Mixmonitor to record the call. The thing is, in the resulting wav i can of course hear the conversation, but not the sound which was whispering.

Re: [asterisk-users] Want web page to listen to meetme (WebRTC?)
Quick and drity: 1) Meetme has to be configured to record the media stream. 2) You have to install a streaming server. Maybe ffmpeg could do the job: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/StreamingGuide 3) Then your website should be able to get the stream from the streaming server. You should be able to test this scenario withing some hours.

Re: [asterisk-users] Playing audio to bridged channels using ControlPlayBack
One thing that concerns me is that this post is from 2009, even though the newest version of the app on Sourceforge is up to date. I have a customer who has been using a conference server that I built for him using app_konference for several years now and he routinely runs conferences with anywhere from 10 – 125 active users. The ultimate goal is several hundred concurrent users and I can see that happening with this app. Much of the functionality comes from a PERL script that runs as a background daemon. I think that’s a plus, because I can easily add additional features by modifying the script. Since I knew I would be making a lot of modifications to the daemon script, I ended up refactoring the whole thing. Write me if you want a copy. In my opinion, if you are going to use app_konference, there is no need to use ControlPlayBack since the script will do that for you. Once of the drawbacks is that the discussion group is pretty much dead, so if you run into a problem, there's really nowhere to go. Overall, I think this is a good application. I hope this helps.

Re: [asterisk-users] Issue between Asterisk Queue and GSM gateway when trying to use call waiting feature

SIP extension 1000 with call waiting activated, and member of Asterisk queue. a) One Caller calls to SIM card A of GSM Gateway, call is forwarded to Asterisk queue where SIP extension 1000 answers. b) New Caller calls the same SIM card A of GSM gateway (it has call waiting activated on the sim card), call is forwarded to Asterisk queue to the same extension 1000 and a pop-up appears with the second call. c) extension 1000 accepts it so put on hold first call, then try to pickup the new one. The thing is that the SIP re-invite with sendonly attribute can be seen from extension 1000 to Asterisk queue, but this SIP invite is not being forwarded to GSM gateway. So the GSM gateway keeps waiting for it and because it never appears the 1st call is dropped. Maybe you have had this issue in the past. I know that Im not an expert, but I have been researching a lot and trying to vary configurations without clues. The question is: Is it expected for the Asterisk queue to redirect this on-hold message (SIP re-invite with sendonly media attribute) to the GSM gateway so it can manage it call waiting feature on the same SIM card? If we repeat the same scenario without queue intervention (i.e. call goes directly to the extension) the SIP re-invite floods normally between Asterisk and GSM gateway, so GSM gateway can decide what to do with the call. I have no specific queue configuration, seems that queues.conf does not have any parameter to allow this behaviour of re-sending re-invite/on-hold messages. Vendor from GSM gateway side is pointing that “Asterisk js not resending on-hold message”. Asterisk is a back to back user agent. As such, it does not forward or proxy any SIP messages. The re-INVITE sent from the SIP device represented by extension 1000 in your scenario is handled by Asterisk, and causes the channel on the other side of the bridge with that SIP channel to be put on Hold. There is no mechanism in Asterisk today to pass through a re-INVITE to initiate a remote hold. -- Matthew Jordan Digium, Inc. | Engineering Manager 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: http://digium.com http://asterisk.org Thank you master!! -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Bridge configuration in Asterisk 13
Hi Everyone. I was referred here by malcolmd of the Asterisk forums. What follows is a copy of this question: http://forums.asterisk.org/viewtopic.php?f=1t=92007? I've recently upgraded from Asterisk 11 to Asterisk 13. Most of it went smoothly thanks to the documentation detailing how to upgrade to 12 and then how to upgrade to 13. The only thing that didn't work correctly was Music On Hold. Eventually I tracked this down to using bridge_softmix instead of bridge_simple. What I'm asking is, does anyone have any explanation as to why MOH would not work with bridge_softmix? Asterisk 11 had been working for at least a year with bridge_softmix and the MOH was fine. With the same configuration (almost) Asterisk 13 insists I use bridge_simple otherwise I see no messages on the CLI about hold music starting or stopping. Unloading bridge_softmix and then loading bridge_simple fixes the issue. Also does anyone have any documentation on what bridges I should be using? I can't seem to find anything in the upgrade documentation that says MOH will no longer work in softmix, you should use simple.

Re: [asterisk-users] About voip gateway
I want to create a voip service, I do not know much about it, but the first thing I want to know if more than one client can make a call at the same time through internet to the PSTN, and what gateway should I use for this. I think the first recommendation any of us will have is to research all you can as there are a lot of mistakes to be made in the telephony world and some of them can be expensive and/or dangerous. The kinds of questions you are asking are not bad to ask, but they do place you squarely at a beginner level. It is hard to answer your questions without having further information. What are you trying to accomplish with this system? Do you need to carry more than one call? What types of phone service are available where this will be installed? For example, a single POTS line will allow you one call in or out of the PSTN. This is not a limitation of Asterisk, this is a limitation on how POTS lines work. A PRI style connection (E1 or T1 depending on location) will allow many more (over 20 calls at once). A SIP trunk is only limited by the number of lines your trunking provider allows and the bandwidth of your internet connection. The gateway you would want to use will depend entirely on what type of connection to the PSTN you are using. A lot of manufacturers make hardware compatible with Asterisk for physical connections to the PSTN and a SIP trunk just requires an internet connection of sufficiently high bandwidth, low latency and a reasonably stable path to the SIP provider. Without knowing more about what you are aiming to do, it is hard for anyone to give you any specific help. You were earlier asked for a specific example of what you wish to accomplish. Please provide that and you will get more people responding. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

That is correct. bridge_softmix is optimized for multi-party conferencing where passing control frames such as hold/unhold to other parties in the bridge is not a good idea. For example, if three parties are in a bridge and if party A pressed its hold button then that should not necessarily prevent parties B and C from talking to each other. Using bridge_softmix for a normal two party call is a last resort. It works reasonably well as a normal two party bridge technology but it is computationally expensive and not intended for that purpose.
