[arm-allstar] speaktext.sh

Ramon,

   Localplay ONLY plays through the node that is specified and it does key and unkey the TX. Perhaps the node you specified is not connected to a local radio or iaxrpt client? localplay ONLY works in the server it is running on. You can localplay another Allstar servers TX even if it is on your local LAN.

I don't undersatand why it is not working for you. I use localplay all the time for weather and other announcements. If you want to play to more than one local node just specify the statement multiple times with the different nodes and the same file name.

The saytime script in /etc/asterisk/local that I wrote uses localplay to play the time based on a cron schedule.

    Doug,

      If I use "localplay" it does not work. I get no audio.

      If I use "playback" it works, but the radio does not key up. I
      have to use "susb key" to get the radio to TX.

      Thanks Doug,

      That's good to know about playback and localplay.

        I looked at the
            script and it looks good but one word of warning he is using
            playfile and not localplay to play the files. This sends it
            out globally to all connected nodes and not just your local
            computer. You also do not need to key and unkey the TX,
            localplay does that for you.

            This...

            asterisk -rx "susb key"

            asterisk -rx "rpt playback $2 ${LOCALSND}"

            asterisk -rx "susb unkey"

            should be this for local playback...

            asterisk -rx "rpt localplay $2 ${LOCALSND}"

            Ramon,

            Never mind, Google fixed it.  I guess the problem was using
            WinSCP to copy the program.  Issuing the command :set
            fileformat=unix in VI fixed it.  It works great. 
              Can't wait to see the next phase of the program.

             Hi
              Ramon,

              I hope you don't mind but I wanted to give your
              shellscript a try.  I'm just learning Linux so I may be
              over my head in this.  It's my test node so I'm not
              worried about breaking it.  

              I copied your shellscript to /etc/asterisk/local then
              issued chmod 755 speaktext.sh.  When I run the script I
              get the following:

              [root at bbb-digital local]# ./speaktext.sh "192.168.1.3"
              40892

              -bash: ./speaktext.sh: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No
              such file or directory

              Let me know if it's an easy fix for me.  If it's too
              involved I'll stick to more basic stuff :-)

                  Attached is a shellscript I wrote based on the
                  questions I had about making the radio transmit and
                  sending speech.

                  I'm using this to output information from my local
                  environment using another script that fetches this for
                  me from DTMF commands. That other script is yet to be
                  written but I do have it for IRLP. Just need to adapt
                  it to Allstar.

                  To use just enter text in quotes and the node to send
                  it to. It is still a work in progress but useable

                  Example syntax is:

                  ./speaktext.sh "IP 192.168.1.20" 28727
