ConfBridge MixMonitor. empty wav files

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hello there,
Asterisk 10.1.2 from rpms, centos hardware server. Conferences - confbridge.
After
– Executing [6304@DLPN_DialPlan_Internal:1] ConfBridge(“SIP/6005-00000017”, “6304”) in new stack
== Begin MixMonitor Recording ConfBridgeRecorder/conf-6304-uid-74779047
wav files created with header 44 bytes, and thats all, after last user exit, files are empty (44 bytes)

the same situation if say from CLI
confbridge record stop 6301
confbridge record start 6301 /tmp/test.wav
…
…
confbridge record stop 6301

But if
mixmonitor start SIP/6005-00000017 /tmp/test.wav
…
…
mixmonitor stop SIP/6005-00000017
then wav file is ok.

Something wrong with ConfBridgeRecorder/conf-6303-uid-1138117489 channel ?

confbridge.conf:
[default_conference]
record_conference=yes

I don’t have a solution, but I’ve also seen this happen on Asterisk 10.0.0.

Normally I record conferences by having a conference admin-menu option start MixMonitor on that admin’s channel. During one conference the recording admin had to drop off and reconnect, so I simply entered ‘confbridge record start xxx’ into the console. That worked just fine.

On a later conference, however, I just opted to do the whole thing with the ConfBridge recorder, so if somebody had to drop off it wouldn’t matter. After the conference I went to grab the file and found the same thing you described.

Having the same issue. I see that fault is listed on the bug tracker.

Anyone got a fix for this?
