First off I would like to state that I know freepbx does not support the mp3 conversion of recorded calls. With that being said I am hoping someone can help me with my dilemma. I have a bash script running as a cronjob that converts recorded wav files to mp3 files and updates the cdr database. The …

If you allow display and override “readonly settings” in advanced settings there is a setting for “Post Call Recording Script”, you can take it from there after reading the “hover over help” for how to use asterisk variables.

I apologize but I should have noted that I am fairly new to the freepbx world and if you could elaborate on your post I would appreciate it. I do not do much code writing, so some of this still doesn’t make any sense to me. Sorry for needing to be “spoon feed”

That was not the solution I needed but it pointed me in the direction. With a executable post script of: /var/lib/asterisk/bin/convert_recordings.sh ^{TIMESTR} ^{FROMEXTEN} ^{CALLFILENAME} ^{UNIQUEID} ^{ARG3} and code of: /bin/nice /bin/sleep 3 dy=$(date '+%Y') dm=$(date '+%m') dd=$(date '+%d') fi…

Dicko - to circle back around to this. Is there a cleaner way to execute this functionality. The problem is we (by law) record every call retained for at least 365 days and with the post recording script enabled the lag in outbound connection time on calls turns from 5 seconds to 90 seconds. We woul…

It shiuld be about as clean as you can get apart from the spurious sleep command ( It runs on every recorded call on completion), and that you have a file_age variable set to 35 , i would assume you wanted 366 so why did you put it there? BUT it is unused and not appropriate. That purgeing if yo…

The file_age variable was in one of the two files I used to compile the code. I was not sure what it did, and since I do not fully understand the code, I left it. I have since commented it out. If I am to understand your second comment. The purging is the changing of the cdr log. Correct? As for t…

I have no idea why as that script should have no impact on the dialplan until “hangup”. Perhaps a copy of a call from the “full” log would helpfully provide timestamps to possibly show any delays, I will comment though that you call the script with ^{ARG3}, again why? , your post is not actually …

I also have a script that i would like to run after a call is recorded. If I call the script manually it works fine, /usr/sbin/./convert_wav2mp3 but if I put that in Advanced settings “Post Call Recording Script” not only does it not run but it also stops the call from being recorded, what would be …

your script needs to runnable by the asterisk user, I suggest you put it in /var/lib/asterisk/bin and then chmod -R asterisk:asterisk /var/lib/asterisk/bin
