I'd like to have a flash player for on-hold music to be listened to from the Maint browser interface.
Should be able to listen to each track selectively, fast formward/rewind etc.
I'm prepared to kick in $20 for this functionality and I invite other CE users to match the funds.

This would be damn near impossible without screwing up security. The MOH files are not exposed to the web server.

Huh,
How do you figure that when you use the webserver to upload them to the folder to begin with?

The upload is a different process. I am not considering streaming the music back to the web user, that may be possible.
All of the 'play sound' applets require a URL to reach the source file.

Like i said, this is an easy thing to implement all we need is a flash player that is embedded on the Maint - music on hold upload page so that itcan play back the files when someone wants to listen to them locally to check upload quality etc.
I'm prepared to put $20 towards this bounty.
Scott are you prepared to match it?

$20.00 yeah sure, whatever.
Again, flash player or no flash player the files aren't exposed so how would it play them? Maybe I am having a senior moment.

Yeh I'm not sure why you think it would be so difficult but i'm not a developer.
Ok so thats $40 anyone else want to kick in?
Any developers interested in providing a solution for this yet?

Scott, any reason why a symbollic link in /var/www/html/...? wouldn't do the job?
I reckon this is how listening to recordings (in /var/spool/monitor) works through the web UI.
I have this working in the standard Quicktime plug-in now. I created a module for the user view that allows users to upload new hold music, listen to it, and adjust the volume, all without having to log in to the admin interface. I'd be willing to share for a small bounty :)
did you send me a private message? the forums seem to be a little screwed up as didn't say who it was from but sure if you get your code committed then happy to pay $20 for it.
I have this working (with no problems in regards to security...)
It utilizes this free open-source flash audio player: http://blog.datacompboy.ru/2009/10/19/wavplayer-flash-player-for-...
On the code side, two PHP scripts are used. One script is called via a javascript pop-up window to build the player page, which in turn calls another file which reads the WAV or MP3 file as the web user (apache or whatever) and streams the output to the player. Just to clear up the old argument, I did not have to edit any permissions or open any security holes to make this work.
Now, if someone would be so kind as to tell me how to submit this code, I'd be more than happy to share :)
cool, once you submit let me know your paypal details to send money.
This code comes from the downstream FreePBX project.
Please PM me and we can take a look at the code and see what you are doing.
In the interim I can also help you package as a patch and we can put it in the wiki.
