Hi,

There are two issues that I am trying to resolve.

Is there anyway to continuously loop an audio file? With the playback app, the call gets hung up after the audio file finishes playing, but I need it to replay from the beginning until the caller hangs up.

The other issue has to do with the Park app. Is there anyway to playback an audio file ( on a continuous basis) for a parked call? I checked the wiki but can't find any info on that.

Any ideas on how to resolve those problems?

Thanks,
Doug

Hi,

If I have different audio tracks that I would like to loop through, does it mean I need different folder for each? Moreover, if I loop through different folders, does it mean freeswitch would start multiple "player" and consume resources ineffectively as the audio is probably played only for a very limited duration.

Thanks for your advice.

Regards,
Doug

If you are using event_socket to control the parked call you can do the following.

call-command: execute
execute-app-name: playback
execute-app-arg: /path/to/file
lead-frames: 5
loops: -1

loops can also be 1..N for how many times to loop.


also, optionally you can add

event-lock: true

if you want to make any subsequent commands wait for this one to finish

and

hold-bleg: true

If the call is in a bridge and you want to play the file on the call and put the other leg on hold while the file is being played.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion.

I just need the MOH to be played until someone bridges to the parked call.
By the way, what does lead-frames mean? Can loops be set to infinite? Does "-1" means running it in an infinite loop?

if that is all you need, try this.

call-command: execute
execute-app-name: set
execute-app-arg: ringback=/path/to/file

then send the bridge command with {ignore_early_media=true} prepended to your dial string.


now the parked leg would hear music while it's waiting for the far end to answer.

to answer your other questions:
lead-frames is a number of frames to read before starting the playback
and yes -1 means infinite.

Hi Anthony,

Thanks again for your help.

If the "bridging" park does not happen immediately, is it still possible to play the file? In the scenario I am working on, the event client will have to wait for a certain signal to occur before sending the bridge command. Is there anyway to enable the MOH even duration the waiting period?

Thanks,
Doug

you can park the first one, play music on it.
Then create the new leg and send it to intercept the parked call.

There a lot of things you can do.
