[Asterisk-bsd] FreeBSD and Music on Hold -- Possible Fix

[Chris Stenton]

Rich,

No there is very little additional CPU activity.
mpg123 process is there.
mpg123 runs fine standalone.

I have not looked into the code in great detail but it seems like some form
of select
or poll issue with asterisk waiting patiently for some MOH event to happen.

I take it that MOH works for you OK.

Chris
