Should be doable, but it would take a bit of scripting. You would have to get a program that subscribes to the feeds in Linux (bashpodder does this) and downloads the files to a given directory. You would then have to run something to convert those mp3s into something Asterisk can use, then move the converted files to the appropriate MoH directories. Create a dial code (say *703 -> *POD) and have it play MoH for the files in that folder.
<br><br>If you wanted to be really clever about it, you could create an IVR that lets you pick from the most recent show, one show back, two shows back, etc, etc... And have the script that copies the files over remove the oldest file, rename the older files so that they become "show2" and "show3", and then rename the newest show to "show1".
<br><br>As I said, a bit of work... But doable if you're willing to put some work into it.<br><br>Alex<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/25/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">kael</b> <<a href="mailto:kael@altern.org">
