Like I said it's based on experience, I can try hacking my brain and come up with particular reasons that can be written down, however I don't really have the time for that right now. In any event, my experience has only been with larger files (1MB up to 25MB). I never tried smaller ones, and since I just don't use it anymore I doubt I will find out any time soon. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
