Of course you need to convert all mp3 moh files to raw format manually, but it's easy as described there.

We were using the rawplayer method on our server, but it ended up spawning hundreds of zombie processes. I talked to Kevin Fleming about it, and he recommended switching to native MOH. Scalability is a big concern of mine, so I asked him about the impact it would have on CPU, memory, and disk utilization. His response was, "not much, more memory usage though." I could spare the memory, so I gave it a shot.

So far, I'm very impressed. It eliminated the zombie processes completely and the quality of the playback is *much* better.
