[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.8 Paging without DAHDI or MOH Shoutcast with DAHDI

[Bob Pierce]

I agree that call files are not an appropriate way to solve this.

I would like to move back to using the original Page() application
which had always worked for us with 1.4

My initial testing found that MOH from a streaming source such as
Shoutcast only worked if I disabled the DAHDI timing module in
modules.conf with "noload => res_timing_dahdi.so". I understand the
DAHDI timing module is a requirement for the Page() application.

Has anybody been able to get streaming MOH to work in 1.8.4.3 with the
DAHDI timing module loaded?

If not, is there a way to use both the pthreads and DAHDI timing
modules and force MOH to use pthreads and force Page() to use DAHDI?
