I'm assuming you mean you want to get one stereo recording for each 
participant, where the left channel is the participant and the right channel 
is the rest of the conference?

If that's not correct, what do you want the two channels of a stero recording 
to contain?

Suppose it *is* stereo - what would you expect the two channels to contain?  
It sounds like you want one single stereo recording of a conference with 
multiple participants.  Are they all using stereo telephones and generating 
two-channel audio into the conference - or what??

How about a simple MixMonitor with btr options on each participant who dials 
in, before they get placed into the conference?  Then the t channel should be 
the participant and the r channel should be the rest of the conference.

[asterisk-users] Is it possible to record 2-4 party call audio in stereo quality as opposed to mono?

2019-11-01 Thread Dan Cropp
We have a customer who wants us to record anywhere from 2-4 participants on a 
call in stereo (as opposed to mono) quality audio.

Some background..
We are using asterisk 16.6.1
We are also currently using AMI/AsyncAGI and ConfBridge to bring the parties 
together.  I believe recording in the various file formats (based on 
extension), it's always recording in mono quality.

My one thought is to transition to using ARI Bridge (instead of ConfBridge) and 
streamed audio using ExternalMedia.
Then have a media server capture the external media packets, stripping the 
payload information and write directly to a file.
Would that audio be of ulaw stereo or mono?

Any suggestions?

This channel is used for processing all out of dialog SIP MESSAGE requests
in the dialplan.  It cannot be hung up.

[asterisk-users] Own MOH incorrectly kicking in instead of the MOH of the callee

2019-11-01 Thread Michael Maier
Hello all!

I'm reproducibly getting my *own MOH* if I should get the MOH of the Callee 
instead. I can see this with asterisk 13 and 16 (and probably before, too). The 
reason of the
wrong MOH is an in dialog reInvite received from trunk, which sends a SDP 
containing

a=sendonly

After this reInvite, I can hear own MOH instead of the MOH of the Caller. The 
situation is cleared by another reInvite received from the trunk containing

a=sendrecv


Is this expected behavior? I don't think it should act like this.

BTW: I'm additionally using FreePBX. Maybe it's a problem of FreePBX?


Thanks
Michael
