[Asterisk-Users] MixMonitor and filenames

[Steve Feinstein]

Seems like mixmonitor app uses the extension to determine what format to 
save the file as.  (ie raw, gsm, etc.)    So I think you want to leave 
the extension alone.  But you have lot's of control over the filename 
itself using variables & functions.  Here's what I'm doing which seems 
marginally useful.  It saves every file with the channel name, and the 
unique ID as the filename.  The URI encode is because the channel name 
probably has a slash in it.

exten => StartTest,n,MixMonitor(${URIENCODE(${CHANNEL})}${UNIQUEID}.gsm)

Now all I need is a way to play them back one at a time & delete them  
like voicemails.  I guess I could save them to a voicemail directory 
structure and name them so that voicemail app would be happy with them.  
But I'd run in to the same problem that there doesn't seem to be a way 
to read a directory from a dialplan app or function.  I supposed there's 
always AGI for that.  But this was supposed to be quick and dirty.
