; Music on Hold -- Sample Configuration

[general]
;cachertclasses=yes ; use 1 instance of moh class for all users who are using it,
                    ; decrease consumable cpu cycles and memory
                    ; disabled by default


; valid mode options:
; files		-- read files from a directory in any Asterisk supported
;		   media format
; quietmp3 	-- default
; mp3 		-- loud
; mp3nb		-- unbuffered
; quietmp3nb	-- quiet unbuffered
; custom	-- run a custom application (See examples below)

; =========
; File-based (native) music on hold
; =========
;
; This plays files directly from the specified directory, no external
; processes are required. Files are played in normal sorting order
; (same as a sorted directory listing), and no volume or other
; sound adjustments are available. If the file is available in
; the same format as the channel's codec, then it will be played
; without transcoding (same as Playback would do in the dialplan).
; Files can be present in as many formats as you wish, and the
; 'best' format will be chosen at playback time.
;
; The path specified can be either an absolute path (starts with '/'),
; or a relative path; relative paths are interpreted as being relative
; to the 'astdatalibdir' in asterisk.conf, which defaults to
; /var/lib/asterisk.
;
; NOTE:
; If you are not using "autoload" in modules.conf, then you
; must ensure that the format modules for any formats you wish
; to use are loaded _before_ res_musiconhold. If you do not do
; this, res_musiconhold will skip the files it is not able to
; understand when it loads.

; By default, when res_musiconhold reloads or unloads, it sends a HUP signal
; to custom applications (and all descendants), waits 100ms, then sends a
; TERM signal, waits 100ms, then finally sends a KILL signal.  An application
; which is interacting with an external device and/or spawns children of its
; own may not be able to exit cleanly in the default times, expecially if sent
; a KILL signal, or if it's children are getting signals directly from
; res_musiconhoild.  To allow extra time, the 'kill_escalation_delay'
; class option can be used to set the number of milliseconds res_musiconhold
; waits before escalating kill signals, with the default being the current
; 100ms.  To control to whom the signals are sent, the "kill_method"
; class option can be set to "process_group" (the default, existing behavior),
; which sends signals to the application and its descendants directly, or
; "process" which sends signals only to the application itself.
