Looks like what you want is not music on-hold, but rather a streaming server On Oct 22, 2004, at 4:23 PM, Ryan Courtnage wrote: On Fri, 2004-22-10 at 16:05 -0400, Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu wrote: On Fri, 2004-10-22 at 05:56, Manfred Petz wrote: [snip] Is there a way to force MusicOnHold() to be restarted from the beginning for each call which has been answered?

I know that if you do a killall mpg123 at your command line, the next call MOH answers will start playing the mp3s at the beginning. Of course this would affect others that are listening, but if you build out some logic you might be able to make some use of it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold() - how to restart player from the beginning on each call? (fwd)
What Manfred wants to do is not that uncommon. I've used the method that William has suggested in the past. On a lot of corporate phone systems this is a simple option in the programming. Another way is to simply advertise your specials over your music on hold and repeat them... Hoping that the person hears the special.. The only reason they wouldn't is if the customer was on hold for too small of an amount of time, which the customer will appreciate more. :) On Sun, 24 Oct 2004 14:26:50 -0400, William Suffill [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why not just create a context that plays static msgs whenever someone is transfered thereThank you for calling Monthly special etc ... then transfer them back when the person at the biz picks up On Sun, 24 Oct 2004 14:23:04 -0400, Emilio Panighetti [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Looks like what you want is not music on-hold, but rather a streaming server On Oct 22, 2004, at 4:23 PM, Ryan Courtnage wrote: On Fri, 2004-22-10 at 16:05 -0400, Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu wrote: On Fri, 2004-10-22 at 05:56, Manfred Petz wrote: [snip] Is there a way to force MusicOnHold() to be restarted from the beginning for each call which has been answered?

[Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold() - how to restart player from the beginning on each call? (fwd)
Hi list, A question regarding MusicOnHold(): Upon the first call, the player starts. Okay. But when I hang up and call again, the music playback for this new call does not start from the beginning, it starts at the point where it has been interrupted previously. Is there a way to force MusicOnHold() to be restarted from the beginning for each call which has been answered? I tested this by calling extension 114, which is re-routed to a differend numer as below: exten = 114,1,Answer exten = 114,2,SetMusicOnHold(comlabshold) exten = 114,3,MusicOnHold(comlabshold) exten = 114,4,Dial(Zap/g1/019470277,,m) exten = 114,5,Hangup Thanks Manfred ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
