You could test your theory more by making an extension like this:
<extension name="test"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^1234$"> <action application="answer"/> <action application="set" data="time_name=soft"/> <action application="playback" data="tone_stream://%(251,0,1004);loops=-1"/> </condition> </extension>
This would produce a timer and use it for playback instead of the read stream.
Yes, I did just that yesterday, and the playback is similarly distorted then. That experiment is what made me pretty certain that the mod_conference timer was my culprit.
If you wanted to make a timer you could use from the TDM you would have to make a FS module with raw dahdi code in it that opened a socket and clocked off of it and pushed it out to the channels like how some of the other timer modules do but I think if you are on a modern kernel with timerfd that this should not be necessary. If you are on an older platform like centos5 you could try the old -heavy-timer command line arg.
-heavy-timer is new to me, thanks for the tip. My problem is not timer accuracy, but timer synchronization with the T1 clock. But grepping for heavy-timer may give me some insight on how to replace the main timer if it turns out that I need to go that way. Thanks, Bob
