Dan et al;
This looks like a perfect solution.
However, I have one issue. If I initiate the macro manually (put it in
the proper context/dialplan) it works. I see the *.wav file being
created and growing in the /var/spool/asterisk/monitor directory.
If I try to implement it adding the MixMonApp =>
*1,self/both,Macro,mixmon to the [applicationmap] in features.conf, I
cannot get it to work.
Steps.
1. added the example macro to the dialplan in extensions.conf
2. added the line MixMonApp => *1,self/both,Macro,mixmon to the
features.conf file under [applicationmap]
3. sip reload / dialplan reload / reload res_features
4. see the message that 'Mapping Feature 'apps' to app 'Macro(callrec)'
5. make incoming call - answer with SIP phone
6. I press *1 on the keypad, I hear the tones, but it does not begin
recording
7. see nothing in the CLI and no new files get created in
/var/spool/asterisk/monitor directory.
What am I missing? Probably something simple.
Any words of wisdom?

We give our clients to option of either recording all calls, or
allowing the operator to press *1 during a call to start recording
manually.
Using Asterisk 1.4, this is what we do:-
We created a Macro in extensions.conf like this:-
[macro-mixmon]
exten => s,1,GotoIf($["${XAD}" = "0" | "${XAD}" =
""]?startrec:donothing)
exten => s,n(startrec),GotoIf($["${ARG1}"=""]?beep:nobeep)
exten => s,n(beep),Playback(/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rec1)
exten => s,n(nobeep),Set(XAD=1)
exten => s,n,MixMonitor(FILENAME.wav,b)
exten => s,n(donothing),MacroExit
(please note, FILENAME.wav is usually ${UNIQUEID:0:10}, but I changed
it to make it easier for you to understand. You'll need to change it
back to something like ${UNIQUEID:0:10}.wav if you are recording
multiple calls because otherwise they'll be constantly saved to
FILENAME.wav and you'll lose all the previous calls.)
(please note, /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/rec1 is a beep tone so that the
operator knows that he's successfully started the recording.)
Then to recording every call, we add this before the
DIAL(SIP/extension) command in extensions.conf:-
exten => _9.,14,Macro(mixmon,nobeep)
If you don't want to record every call, you can give the operator the
option of press *1. We did this by adding the following to features.conf:-
MixMonApp => *1,self/both,Macro,mixmon
Hope that helps.
