[asterisk-users] playing .gsm sounds through a web browser

[David Backeberg]

No, no, no.

Don't try to play them directly as gsm files. Convert them to wav on
the fly, when demanded by the user from the webpage. Have a php, or
perl, or whatever script call sox, and push the wav to the user. sox
runs so fast that you can do the conversion on-demand. You can decide
what to do with the wav file afterward. Delete it immediately, cache
it, whatever. Don't force the users to know anything they don't
already know. There are a lot of media players that can handle a wav
file.
