EXS API and SwitchKit API message
Description
Play File Start 0x011B
NOTE: This message applies to the DSP Series 2 card only.
Use this message to start playing a file.
You can either specify the channel and the DSP Series 2 card, or let the CSP Matrix Series 3 Card choose the DSP card by leaving the DSP slot set to 0xFF. The CSP Matrix Series 3 Card reports back which DSP Series 2 card has been selected.
If you are accessing files from an external server, you must send the Generic Card Configure message (0x0122) to set the Vocabulary Index File before you send this message, because you must identify a file’s ID and location before you can play it. Internal recordings are an exception to this rule. Internal recordings can be played without having their IDs in the Vocabulary Index File.
The Play File Start message may use File IDs from 0x00 to 0xFFFFFFFE. 0xFFFFFFFF is reserved by Dialogic for internal use, except when using media streaming over RTP, when the range is up to 0x0100000.
When recording a conference or playing a file to a conference, use the Conference AIB instead of the Channel AIB.
