Trying to play a custom announcement/welcome to the a leg on receiving a 183 from the far end.

Have tried a straight playback just before the bridge which confirms that it finds the playback file as the recording is heard but as this is a bit nasty FS complains with a codec error and closes the call.

Tried execute on media with the same playback details as follows...

<action application=”set” data=”execute_on_media=playback /path/mediafile”

Which according to the logs seems to work but I get just silence until I presume the file stops playing which is strange as the file plays fine when using a forced playback?

Logs in both cases show the same file being found and used mediafile.PCMA.

Also I would like to terminate the playback on answer but cannot find any obvious process to do this. Obviously you could do an execute_on_answer but can’t see what I would execute to achieve the desired effect?

Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Regards

Chris
