We have lots of long conferences using the meetme application, resulting in the default recording format (wav) being way too BIG to work with.

I have installed the astersik addon pack, in the hope of getting mp3 recording support. But it only gives mp3 playback support.

How can I get the recordings to be in mp3 format?
Moreover, what other recording formats gives me the benifit of small size and good sound quality of mp3?


What most people do for this is they execute a shell script afterwards to 
convert it into the MP3 format. As for another format that will work for you I 
can't think of any.


You can try to use "lame". Perhaps set up a cron/shell script that finds and converts new .wav files to mp3.

Thanks for the help.
I see the Monitor application has a variable called MONITOR_EXEC, this variable 
contains a the name of a script which are executed everytime the monitor 
application exits. The script is usually used for audio 
editing/mixing/conversion.
I thought problem solved, because in the name of consistency I was sure that 
the MeetMe application will have a MEETME_EXEC variable, which executes a 
script at the end of a meetme conference. But I couldn't seem to find it.

As Pierre du Plessis pointed out one can have a cron/shell script that finds 
and converts new .wav files to mp3, but it feels a bit iffy to me.
I want the conversion to take place the moment when the meetme finish, thus the 
end of the meetme must trigger the script.

How will one go about doing this?

Thanks a lot.
Cheers.
