[asterisk-users] MoH with message on intervals

[Danny Nicholas]

The "simplest" way to do it would be to use sox to remix your moh file with
the message like this:
Let's say you're using the standard file macroform-cold_day.wav. First you
split it into two minute segments like so
Sox macroform-cold_day.wav seg1.wav trim 0.0 120.0
Sox macroform-cold_day.wav seg2.wav trim 0.0 120.0
Sox macroform-cold_day.wav seg3.wav trim 0.0 120.0

Now put it back together with your message inserted like this:
Sox seg1.wav yourmessage.wav seg2.wav yourmessage.wav seg3.wav
yourmessage.wav macroform-cold_day.wav

I'm talking to somebody who wants to have a recorded message play
periodically for people on hold.

An example would be interrupting the hold music every two minutes to play a
message with business hours and current specials.

Seems like you could fake it by breaking the music files into two minute
chunks with alphabetical file names, and using sort=alpha. It seems like
there might also be possible ways to do in the dialplan with
'Set(CHANNEL(musicclass)=' or a combination of StartMusicOnHold() and
StopMusicOnHold().

Can anybody point me in the right direction?
