[Asterisk-Users] Streaming Music On Hold

[Lee Archer]

I spent a days or two on this and in the end did

Musiconhold.conf

[livestream1]
mode=custom
application=/usr/local/bin/mpg123 -s --mono -y -f 8192 -r 8000 -@
/etc/asterisk/stream.playlist

Then in stream.playlist I just put the links from Shoutcast I wanted to
use

http://64.236.34.67:80/stream/1040
http://64.236.34.196:80/stream/1040

Regards

Lee

Thanks. I got it working. Yay.

Now, it seems that Asterisk is very fussy with the streams. A lot don't
work, especially when the URL ends in something.pls. Anyone know if
that's true? Is Asterisk's support of this still pretty limited?

Doug.

Try this:

musiconhold.conf:

[stream2]
mode=mp3
directory=http://pubint.ic.llnwd.net/stream/pubint_wnpr


extensions.conf:

exten => 1234,1,Answer
exten => 1234,2,MusicOnHold(stream2)
exten => 1234,3,Hangup

What am I doing wrong? Yes, it has network and DNS connectivity.
