[cisco-voip] Internet radio on hold

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

We keep all our voip server behind an ACL without pubic access so getting an Internet radio on it might be difficult.

I would suggest a PC in your DMZ which has special QoS on your gateway router so that it will get good bandwidth. Then connect your PC's sound card output to your Call MAnager's sound card input - there may even be USB/TOSlink sound card opportunities to keep the sound digital.

  Is anyone doing this currently? Can someone recommend some software that
  would turn an internet radio feed into a multicast stream to then use as
  MOH?

  I have a customer that is requestiong to user a radio station's internet
  stream as their MOH. I'm not sure how, but the customer was given permission
  by the radio station to use their content in this way.

  CM will instruct the phones and other endpoints to join any multicast 
  stream you specify.

  I have not done it, but it looks doable to use something like VLC to 
  receive a stream and then multicast it out
