[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 11/16/2005 09:46:17 PM: Hi, Yes, I'm using wav for my recording and the file is quite large. I too am using WAV files because of the volume issue: WAV files are shifted two bits louder than any other format. (slight details here: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2005-September/124570.html) That means I'm getting 1MB voicemail files e-mailed to me. It's not that big of a deal, but it's kind of stupid. Any word on if the shifted-bits nature of the WAV format is present (or even better: selectable) on any of the other formats in 1.2? Or might this be a post-1.2 feature worth considering? I haven't programmed in C in a good 10 years or so. But this one motivates me. I'm pretty sure I can hack a simple x = x 2; in there, but making it selectable from within the voicemail configuration file (or wherever else it should go) would be much tougher for me. Might there be a similar selectable feature that I could examine and get an idea of how to do it? Any voicemail experts out there?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Recording voice messages in mp3 format
You'll find the GSM codec renders smaller filesizes. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ryan Pagquil Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 12:19 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Recording voice messages in mp3 format Hi, Is there a way so that I can record the voice messages in mp3 format instead of wav? I think it is much smaller in size compare to wav. It is also easier to send small sized file as an attachment. Currently when my users record voice messages the format is wav. Where can I configure it so that it will become mp3?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Recording voice messages in mp3 format
Are you using wav or wav49? You can check in /etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf under the format option... wav49 creates much smaller files than normal wav and doesn't need a special player like gsm files would and as far as using mp3, I'm not sure how to go about that. -Gerard Ryan Pagquil wrote: Hi, Is there a way so that I can record the voice messages in mp3 format instead of wav?
