Hi, i cannot find File Path for outputted sound files resulting from the Record Command. I see on Voip-Info that it is supposed to be /var/lib/asterisk/sounds but i am not seeing it there. I may not even be doing it right (i’m new). I tried to specify a different path, but that did not work as well. I DO hear the beep at the beginning of the call, but i have no clue where it is putting them, whether i specify the path or not. I am using Fedora 10 x86_64, and here is a snippet of my dialplan:
I am not sure you can have %d in there. Try it with out and see what happens. Also enable full logging in logger.conf and see if there are any errors in /var/log/asterisk/full.
HA, Thanks for the tip! It turned out to be a permission issue. Well, i did note that it DOES allow the %d, but that it does NOT allow you to record while talking.
The reason that i wanted to use the Record command was because i had read that it can also record the video to disk. Monitor does not do this afaik. So, is there a way to record audio and video WHILE talking? (I can mux them myself later).
Also, with the Monitor command, it does not allow you to specify a file path in the extensions.conf afaik; so is there a way to explicitly set where you want the recorded file to go?
That is actually where i came across the documentation at first . I see in your post how to set the file path; thanks for that. So is it safe to still assume that you cannot record a conversation with Record, and it only records while not in conversation mode?
