FreePBX Version

FreePBX 16

Feature Description

In order to automatically transcribe calls into text, I need to be able to have calls recorded with the caller on one audio channel, and the callee on the other audio channel. There have been efforts in the past to do this, however they require modification of the callrecording functions.inc.php file, which is overwritten during software updates.

This thread comes to mind: https://community.freepbx.org/t/solved-stereo-recordings/55983 Later, sholinaty used that information to make a tutorial: https://community.freepbx.org/t/how-i-got-stereo-audio-working-in-freepbx/79643

sholinaty then submitted a commit beb50a5 which was merged in 49d4e8d that added the needed functionality to the callrecording functions.inc.php, however the change was then (partially) removed in commit 85e6bc7 .

I have modified the functions.inc.php on my system and had dual-channel recordings working for months until FreePBX was updated, and having to re-modify the file after every update is not an acceptable avenue.

I would like to inquire if it's possible to either reinstate the change, or outright add such a feature to FreePBX possibly with configuration for it in the GUI.

Thank you for any input regarding this request and hope we can find a way to integrate this functionality into FreePBX.

Is there any possible update to this request, has it been accepted as a future implementation, and is there any timeline?
