Hi,

I am not able to record the voice after the beep. In fact beep is not played. It is Asterirsk 1.8.

As a workaround I was able to use record, by providing the quiet option in the Record().

Can someone tell on how to get the exact path of the beep audio file ? The verbose mode during debugging doesn’t file.

The Asterisk 1.6 works fine. The beep files were in /usr/share/sems/audio area in Asterisk 1.6. Copying the beep files in the same area didn’t help in Asterisk 1.8 ? Can someone tell me the location where to store these files in Asterisk 1.8 ?

You had a non-standard installation of 1.6. A standard installation would put the sound files in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds.
