Hello All,
I seem to be having some problems with loading audio files into my PIAF server ( PBX in a Flash Version 1.4 ). I have previously loaded .wav files following the instructed format of PCM Encoded, 16 Bits, at 8000Hz and this has worked, using a audio file format converter converting from .wma's to .wav's. But now we have made some recordings with ProTools in .wav format and it doesnt seem to work.
I load the file using the PBX Administration GUI>System Recordings, it shows up on the right side saying its in the system. I can even sample the recording via web browser. BUT when i apply this to our secondary IVR on a different incoming route, there is silence when the pbx answers the call, and functionality of destinations works (i.e. pressing 1 sends call to appropriate extension) But there is silence..
When i convert this same .wav file to mp3 it works fine. Why is it suggested to use .wav files if the server converts it to .mp3 anyways?? Is there an issue with .wav files? What is everyone else doing to load IVR recordings??
I found another post:
http://pbxinaflash.com/community/threads/system-recordings-click-to-play-doesnt-work.4854/
But i believe that has to do with sampling the audio through quicktime.. Not sure. Either way any input would be appreciated. Tried posting this in the freePbx forums and they said 1. post this in PIAF forums, 2. sounds like permissions.
Thanks,
D
