[App_rpt-users] Nasa Select via music on hold?

[Alan Adamson]

Stephen,
 
Wondering if I could bug you for a little more info.
 
while the time for this has come and gone, I want to be ready for the next
time. I figured out how to get a feed. I'd have used my windows machine to
push a feed to my icecast server by playing the nasa video feed and
recording the "what you hear" from my sound card :). poor mans live audio
feed.
 
So that part was no problem.
 
What I fail to grasp it how I would have hooked this up in allstar to the
radio side of things.
 
In what file would I have placed your comments below??  And how would I have
brought that audio into one of my nodes?  On the surface I'm assuming that
I'd need a private node for 1000 and then I would have linked that in?  But
that may not be how you do it.  Any help appreciated. Just so I can do this
again if so desired.
 
[my-nasa-feed-or-whatever-you-decide-to-call-it]
exten => 1000,1,MusicOnHold(default)
 
Thanks in advance,
Alan

Easy, use the music on hold function. You'll need mpg123 installed and a
feed to point to it, I do this for the music on hold on my main PBX all the
time. Create or edit a file called musiconhold.conf and include the
following as a sample: 
 
[default]
mode=custom
application=/usr/bin/mpg123 -q -s --mono -r 8000 -f 8192 -b 0
http://scfire-ntc-aa05.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1074
 
This example is for the .977 hitz Shoutcast stream. An example dialplan
config would look like this (in extensions.conf): 
 
[my-nasa-feed-or-whatever-you-decide-to-call-it]
exten => 1000,1,MusicOnHold(default)
 
In a nutshell this is how you could accomplish it, hopefully I didn't miss
anything so I don't make any guarantees, YMMV ;) If you can get it going let
us know, I looked around to see if there was a feed being broadcast and
couldn't find one but I didn't look in any great detail. You could also
rename your MusicOnHold class to say, NASA and just refer to it accordingly
in your dialplan. 
 
Hope that helps.. 73

It seems there are ways to bring nasa select into allstar, one seems to be
via music on hold.
Anyone have a configuration of doing this?  Or specifically how to bring in
the audio from the Mars landing tonight into allstar (hmm, means I need to
turn off my timeout timers too.. must be a cop for that I would suppose?)
