The default audio framework operates on raw audio.<br>The mod_native_file triggers a special flag that tells the higher level api&#39;s for recording not <br>to transcode the audio first.<br><br>It would probably be easier for you to use the api_hangup_hook variable to trigger a sox command<br>

<br>I&#39;m new to this project so I&#39;m not familiar with the inner workings just yet but at looking at mod_native_file.c it seems this is a thin wrapper around the switch&#39;s own file input and output routines?&nbsp; Would it be best to change this class or register a new file type, like .ul?&nbsp; If so, where would be a good starting point. <br>

<br>for example,&nbsp; running the unix command &#39;file&#39; on the recording prints:<br>/tmp/185065_f7bb8e0c-e641-11dd-800d-5ffe41c540dd.PCMU: data<br><br>if I run it through sox&nbsp; which just outputs the same data (ulaw,8000,mono) but specifying the type as wav<br>

/usr/bin/sox -t .ul -r 8000 -c 1 -b -U file.pcmu -t wav -r 8000 -c 1 -b -U file.wav<br><br>it produces a file that shows:<br>/tmp/185065_f7bb8e0c-e641-11dd-800d-5ffe41c540dd.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, ITU G.711 mu-law, mono 8000 Hz<br>

<br>if I try and save it within freeswitch using the wav extension, it trans-codes it to a pcm format<br>&nbsp;RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 8000 Hz<br><br>Is there any way to have freeswitch record the file as ulaw with the RIFF wav header?<br>
