Music On Hold

You can have use a source for on-hold music.

Make a directory and put a 0 size file ending in .mp3.
I called my directory: /var/lib//mohmp3-empty

in .conf, add a line such as:
default => mp3:/var/lib//mohmp3-empty,http://www.waixwave.com:8000/

Alternative method –

The initial method seems to not work in 1.2 & +. You can use the method below, doing a custom application and calling , and specifying your source.

default
mode=custom
dir=/var/lib//mohmp3-empty
application=/usr/local/bin/ -q -r 8000 -f 8192 -s –mono http://213.186.41.160:8000/
