Automon Call recording Set it to record by default

Hi

Im using a mixture of asterisk.1.6.x/1.8 and am looking at setting up call recording for calls. I have enabled automon *1 in features.conf and have that working with the following lines. Dial *1 while in call to start recording to /var/spool/asterisk/monitor and dial *1 to stop recording.

exten => 100,1,Set(DYNAMIC_FEATURES=automon) ; enable One-touch
exten => 100,2,Dial(SIP/numbertodial@sim3,wW) ; wW allow one-touch recording

How do I change automon so by default it starts recording without having to press *1?

Pickup *8 *8

Disconnect Call * *

Howdy,

Those dynamic features are enabled only with a feature code.

If you want all calls to be recorded, you could do a Dial with the M flag, for Macro, and execute a Macro that records the call.

Cheers.

Macros are deprecated.

Yes I can see Macros are depreciated now.

I know I should be able to use Dial with M flag and execute some sort of record Macro using mixmonitor.?

My problem is that a few members of staff who take credit card payments would have to be able to dial something to pause the recording for that call as I dont want the card details stored in the wav files.

Any Ideas how I can capture these keypresses in the call.?

Thanks for the info.

I have seen a post on
lists.digium.com/pipermail/aster … 47925.html
which has sort of what I want to have. All calls are auto recorded but you can opt out by pausing the recording.
I am going to try this tomorrow.
