sound of opening of a door

  • dear colleagues!
    unfortunately i couldn't find how i can add some sound that will accompany a opening of the door, could you please advise me how to do it? e.g. i open the door by using rfid card and i'd like to hear some special sound.
    Danke.

  • Hi Brunh.
    Tell me, did you solve the problem with button press and if you did, can you explain me how ?
    I need the same stuff like you ( sound after door button press ) but i can not get this door button to work as it should.
    In other words, if i test the button with some external python code everything works perfect, but when i start doorpi, i can not get correct ( or any ) button press confirmation.


    Additional problem is that i can not trigger LED, but again, it works great with external test program.
    Please be so kind and take a look at my doorpi.ini. It's inside of this post :

    Best regards !

  • Hi Emil,
    yes, i solved it.
    by adding an event in doorpi.ini, that has to play the sound.


    i was looking through your doorpi.ini as well. and didn't understand what means string:
    [onboardpins_InputPins]
    36 = 36


    how it should work? what is a logic of that?

  • Hi Brunh.
    Thank you for reply.


    I had bunch of problems with the first doorpi installation. After days of moving in circle nothing was working as it should.
    Finally i decided to remove all and started from the beggining. So i downloaded freepbx again and installed most of the packages separatly. I downloaded the doopi from gihub and then i downloaded the rest part by part ( from the separate sources ). After i finished the installation, the same button problems,sound and LED problems are fixed ( btw, i didnt change anything in the hardware ). I think it's very important to write this because as i can see on the forum, quite many people have the same problems and maybe there is bug somewhere.


    I created some new sound file and inserted it into doorpi.ini.
    Now when i place a call, you get nice ding - dong sound and the call is placed onto second computer.
    Btw. Im using Twinkle for comm purposes.


    36 = 36
    - it's just definition of pin where i have my button connected. You can call it whatever you like :-).


    I will start a new post regarding relay, so if you have any suggestion, please be so kind to share it.
