Once the call is completed you can use SOX to split the call. In my opinion, you will have to get a larger ram disk or record the files to a different format like WAV49, but maybe somebody has a better solution for you.

Is it possible to use Monitor() to record a conversation[1], but make it start a new pair of wav files at intervals (eg every 15 minutes) if the calls go on for a long time? We already have this happening if the callers press a specific key sequence (which we've defined in features.conf) to pause/resume recordings but I'd also like to do this automatically during long calls so that we can split the recordings up into several 'legs'. The reason for this is that the wav files spool to a ram disk[2] and if there are quite a few very long calls they can fill the ram disk up. If we could split long calls into a series of smaller files, we could move files off the ramdisk once they're no longer being actively written to and recombine them later once the call has finished. Any ideas? [1] we used to use MixMonitor() but we stopped using that for a valid reason though I can't remember what the reason was now. [2] if spooling to disk we get audio dropouts when a lot of calls are being simultaneously recorded Cheers, Kingsley. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
