[Freeswitch-users] Recording with Native File PCMU

[Matthew Fong]

I'm trying to conserve processor power by recording in native file format,
PCMU in my case. It works great with the following line

session:execute("record",
"/tmp/my_recording."..session:getVariable("read_codec"));

however it fails to work with

session:execute("record_session",
"/tmp/my_recording."..session:getVariable("read_codec"));
or
record = api:execute("sched_api", '+1 none uuid_record
'..session:getVariable("uuid")..' start
/tmp/my_recording.'..session:getVariable("read_codec"));

Why is it that it works with record, but not with record_session or
uuid_record? Is there something I'm over looking? In the latter two the
consul reports

2009-11-22 18:39:04.265284 [INFO] mod_native_file.c:82 Opening File
[/tmp/my_recording.PCMU] 8000hz

as if it's recording, but /tmp/my_recording.PCMU never shows up. However if
I change it to .wav instead of .PCMU it works. Any ideas?
