# vbox(5)

file format

## NAME

vbox - file format

## FORMAT

With version 2.0.0 of vbox the recorded files have a new header, that does not only include compression mode and connection information, but also information about the caller.

The current headers hold this information:

**time** of recording the message, \
 **compression** mode,\
 **CALLER** ID,\
 **name**,\
 **telephone** number,\
 **city**

With this information it's possible for other programs to get the information about a message. The detailed format is described in the file libvbox.h as structure vaheader\_t (this file is not included in debian gnu/linux; if you want to develop isdn programs you should get the source code).

## SEE ALSO

**[autovbox(1)](/autovbox/1.md), [vboxtoau(1)](/vboxtoau/1.md), [vboxmode(1)](/vboxmode/1.md), [vboxcnvt(1)](/vboxcnvt/1.md)**
