Replacing a system recording

Hello,

I have set up conference bridges and would like to change the system recording (which is in a creepy voice) for the ‘Please enter the conference pin number’ which callers first hear when they call the bridge.

Thanks to a useful post from SkykingOH, I turned on verbose logging, and was able to identify the ulaw file being played.

-- <SIP/nnnn-00000189> Playing 'enter-conf-pin-number.ulaw' (language 'en')

I recorded a new system recording, naming it ‘enter-conf-pin-number’, and saving it as ulaw. It is saved however as custom/enter-conf-pin-number.

What steps can I take to move the replace the old recording with my new one?

Thanks,

Karen

Copy it over to the right path. i think it’s in /var/lib/asterisk/sound

Better to use

/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en/

replace en with your language if not en, there might be more than one version for different codecs,

Thank you both for the replies. dicko, you were correct about the /en directory.

My custom recordings were in: /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en/custom

This worked like a charm:

cd /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en/custom
cp enter-conf-pin-number.ulaw /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en
