Music On Hold Trixbox 2.8.0.4
We've recently created a Trixbox 2.8.0.4 with yealink T22 phones and it's great - however the music on hold is driving the clients potty as they hate it!
I've created a new category so I can keep the default category - however I have a couple of questions;
1) How do I change the category from default (to my new category favourites) I can't see an option to change it at all - looking at the GUI menus. I'd like to keep the default category - upload new MOH to the favourites folder and then play those.
2) If I try and upload any MP3 using the upload tool on the GUI it takes forever and then times out - I'm assuming there's a size limit here ?
3) All of the files in the mohmp3 folder are ulaw files - do I need to convert mp3 to ulaw files and if so how - and are there any settings I need to do.
I've read and read and read on this but there doesn't seem to be a definitive guide for this for Trixbox 2.8.0.4
Thanks a lot

directory=/var/lib/asteris
random=yes
