The first channel starts recording when the Dial is executed. The second channel starts on Asterisk receiving an "Answer" from whatever channel driver is being connected. This means that there may be a several second delay between when you complete dialing and when the person answers - normally this delay is when the caller hears ringing tones. When the two files are merged together, this ring delay makes for a very confusing gap between the channels.
What needs to be done is that either:
a) Both channels need to start recording on the execution of the Dial statement, and silence needs to be "recorded" on whatever channel has not answered yet.
b) A less elegant method could be to start the recording on both channels at the time of the "Answer" on the second channel.
The clever person who came up with Monitor (Mahmut Fettahlioglu) had mentioned looking at this more sometime when he had a chance...

Hi,
I've had a search through the archives and didn't find much. Is anyone using the Monitor application? I have it working but there is a really big drawback. The files are always called the same thing, which means if I make 2 calls one after the other the first recording is lost. I half expected Monitor to use something like ZAP-2-1-<yyyymmddhhmmss>-in/out.wav for it's filenames but it just uses the channel eg
Zap-2-1-in.wav
Zap-2-1-out.wav
has anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks
Andy
