Hi,

I’m using Asteirsk 1.2.7.1 with asterisk addons format\_mp3.so loaded for playing mp3 files for music on hold.

The problem i’m facing is, On hold music for queues the mp3 file is played but it’s playing very fast (looks very funny). The format of the mp3 is 128 kbps and 44.1 khz sampling rate. Is there any specific format for the mp3 file played in asterisk?

MOH sample configuration

Pls help.

Thanks,  
Rajesh.
