Currently supported languages

  • Hebrew
  • Chinese (partly)
  • Vietnamese (partly)

Listen to the voices in: MOR IVR Samples



Add another language



Translation/recording

  • Translate and record a sound file to your language (example: French (fr)).




Converting

In order to have Asteriskplay files, they should be converted to Bit rate: 16-bit, Sample rate: 8000Hz, MONO.

This can be done using the sox command:

/usr/bin/sox file1.wav -r 8000 -c 1 -s -w file2.wav resample -ql 

... and putting them into /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/mor/ivr_voices/fr.

Also, the script /usr/src/mor/script/convert2astwav.sh can be used to convert many files at once. Just execute it in the folder with .wav files.



Errors

These errors means that a sound file is not Asterisk compatible:

[Dec 22 03:00:46] WARNING[20516]: format_wav.c:148 check_header: Not in mono 2                                                              
[Dec 22 03:00:46] WARNING[20516]: file.c:322 fn_wrapper: Unable to open format wav



Digits

Let's say you need digit sounds recorded in French (fr).

Put all digit recordings into /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/digits/fr.

List of sound files for digits



Setting language

  • In DID settings, set language = fr.

If you want to set your default language for the whole system, not only for DIDs, then in sip.conf/iax2.conf/etc (they are in /etc/asterisk) set:

language = fr 

Where fr is JUST AN EXAMPLE, CHANGE fr TO THE APPROPRIATE LANGUAGE!!!

Reload Asterisk.



Currency

For example, let's take Georgian currency GEL (Georgian lari).

You will need these sound files:

   * GEL_cents (meaning 1/100 of main currency, "cents" for USD/EUR, "tetri" for Georgian GEL)
   * GEL_many (meaning many of main currency, "dollars" for USD, "euros"  for EUR, "lari"? for Georgian GEL)
   * GEL_one (meaning 1 of main currency, "dollar" for USD, "euro" for EUR, "lari" for Georgian GEL)

They should be placed into /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/mor/ivr_voices/X.

Where X means your language.



Remove a default sound file from MOR logic

Just set the appropriate sound file to contain silence.



Remove/Change sound files

Files are stored in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/mor/ivr_voices/.

Change the necessary sound file if you want to.

Make sure it is in Asterisk compatible format.
