Correct, alaw files (as well as most Asterisk formats) have no header, so tools that require one may not function correctly. You could of course use a tool such as Audacity or sox to read the file and convert it into another format, if that was your need. However, Asterisk will not correctly play a soundfile which is not in its expected format, which is mostly headerless (notable exceptions are wav, wav49, ogg, and mp3). -- Tilghman Lesher Digium, Inc. | Senior Software Developer twitter: Corydon76 | IRC: Corydon76-dig (Freenode) Check us out at: www.digium.com & www.asterisk.org -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
