Hello,
I am currently using MusicOnHold(mpg123), and it works just fine, but every once in a while I will get a flurry of warnings in the CLI like those below and Asterisk will freeze completely, and the only way to come out of it is with a kill -9 . Is mpg123 causing my problem? Is there a specific format of MP3 that should be used/avoided to not have errors like these? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
MATT---

I'll throw a guess on this one.....
Sounds like the mp3 your playing is "variable rate encoded" (most mp3's are) and * doesn't like it.
Convert the mp3 to nonvariable rate encoding, try like 128b, there's plenty of tools around to do it.
I can't remember for sure, but the last time I tried a variable rate encoded mp3 it didn't work at all and had to convert it.
That is if your mp3 is variable rate encoded.
