Conference Bridge Recording File Name
Hello, I’m attempting to enable conference bridge recording.
I have it working, and I’m dynamically pushing the filename onto the bridge via the set CONFBRIDGE commands. But it seems regardless of what name I
set, the actual filename is written as WHATIPROVIDED-uniqueid.wav.
Example, I use the following command to set the recording file prior to calling confbridge in the dialplan. (Realtime dialplan)
Set CONFBRIDGE(bridge,record_file)=/var/spool/asterisk/monitor/confbridge-NicksBridge-1234.wav
However, The file is actually written as
“confbridge-NicksBridge-1234-1629925359.wav”
I’m attempting to have a known name for the recording file that is NOT
unique as the next step is using the record_command to call a script that runs after the conference to upload the file to a MySQL database. Is there any way to get confbridge to not append the unique ID to the end of the file name? Or perhaps a variable I can call in the record_command field to predict what this number will be?

According to the wiki, you can disable the timestamp
record_file_timestamp
Append the start time to the record_file name so that it is unique. https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+16+Configuration_app_confbridge
