 I'm no expert, but haven't seen other replies here, so I'll throw out my
 suggestions.
 
 I don't have that package (still using testing's 1.2 package) but I
 expect the /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf uses mp123 to process the
 music on hold files. That's not Free software though (and isn't really
 maintained anymore, I think...), 

It actually is (maintained, and a recent version of it is in 
stable/testing.

However editing musiconhold.conf shouldn't be a problem. I wonder if 
we should start distributing a separate musiconhold package, as the 
current one is non-free: if you happen to make the mistake of Playback of 
those FPM sound files, you're violating their license.

Hmm.. I think several years ago it wasn't... I guess I'm just living in
the past. Sorry about that!

[asterisk-users] muscionhold error message

2007-05-11 Thread pedro noticioso
hi there guys!

how can I eliminate this message?

[May 11 11:00:46] WARNING[7039]: res_musiconhold.c:506
monmp3thread: Unable to spawn mp3player
[May 11 11:09:06] WARNING[7039]: res_musiconhold.c:424
spawn_mp3: Found no files in
'/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3'

This is on debian etch 4.0
asterisk 1.4, it happens quite often everyday and I
have to scroll a lot to try to find other error
messages.

btw can I just put some musica wav files in
/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ? that would be great to
leave asterisk's processor alone

thanks!

expect the /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf uses mp123 to process the

Debian, though you can get it from http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ if not.

You could also just change the musiconhold.conf file I expect.

You can use pretty much anything, since you can define a decoder in the
musiconhold.conf file.
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+musiconhold.conf has some
more info, though it's pretty confusing since it has info for different
versions of asterisk, and some discussion interspersed...

I forgot to add that the built-in support for playing mp3s which
replaced, for some people, the mp123 program, requires asterisk-addons,
which also isn't packaged for debian! There are other possibilities
though. I think you could use mp321 plus sox to convert to the proper
sound format, for example.
