[Freeswitch-users] disable music on hold when in a conference?

Fri Apr 23 18:26:41 UTC 2021

Since the offending FS knows how to reach the conference FS, just set the MOH channel variable to silence in the dialplan extension that sends the call to the conference FS.

Yeah, thanks for the pointer. Thing is, I can’t totally disable MOH on the other box. I would have to do it only if this call is going to a conference on the next server. Not trivial, unless you have some suggestions?

Yep, you gotta know there too to set the MOH to silence.  Figured that was what was going on.

I thought I’d let you know.

There was indeed another fs in the middle, and that’s the one playin the MOH, because it doesn’t know the b-leg (which then goes to a FS on which the conference is running) is a conference call...

When you say lookback, do you mean like INVITing to the same box? Yes, this is a new system for me. When a conference is wanted, there's a lua sending an invite to the same box on a different port, which in turn goes to a diaplan that does the conferencing.

Another thing i'm seeing in that the MOH (suite....) doesn't actually starts, it keeps on going, i.e.: if i hold at second 10 of the song, listen for 3 seconds, unhold for 3 seconds again, i hear the song at second 16... as if it's playing one single stream continuously... i seem to remember something that does that but i can't remember right now (shout? but there's no shout here)

Sounds like the hold music is some sort of intermediate channel, happen to have loopback in the mix?

A really weird thing is I started /events on CHANNEL_HOLD and CHANNEL_UNHOLD and I’m not seeing the event when the calls are in a conference (I do see them when in a normal call.

Thanks Brian, 

i tried:

        <action application="set" data="hold_music=silence_stream://-1"/>
        <action application="conference" data="conf$1 at default+flags{mintwo|dist-dtmf|endconf|nomoh}"/>

But on receiving the sendonly fs starts MOH.

Just set the moh to silence_stream://-1 before you enter the conference. :)

Thanks Brian,

Calls are connected directly to FS. My issue is the client sends a reINVITE with sendonly and FS starts playing moh. Is there no way of preventing this from happening?

Unless i'm not understanding what you mean by "directly". They're going through Kamailio.

Depends on if the phone is directly connected to the FS with the conference or not.

Hello guys,

I have this case where 3 users are in a conference, and if one of the puts the call on hold, the others will hear his usual music on hold. Is there a way of disabling MOH while in a conference?

thanks,
