Ah, I see.
Well, since the phone answering message(s) that I use are pretty much static
anyway, is there any way to tell ECS to just play a .WAV file and skip the
conversion? I could do a manual conversion once and that would speed up the
critical answer process. (?)
Having said that, I guess I better go check the manual to see if you already
have this provision :-)
