[Asterisk-Dev] EAGI Help

Seems like it would be a nice feature. 

I personally am rather poor at c, and being able to write an EAGI in
another language, and be able to stream audio back into the channel from
the EAGI would have been excellent!

Seems like something that would benefit Asterisk quite a bit to me...
might encourage more development from those who wouldn't consider it
normally?! Seems to me that's partly what the whole AGI ethos is about,
simple integration with Asterisk.

Having said this, if you can't write audio back to a channel from an
EAGI then I'm going to have to figure it out in C, which isn't a
pleasant prospect.

Cheers,

Ben

You don't get access directly to the output stream. You get to tell
asterisk what to do. So you can tell asterisk to stream file, you can
use app_festival to speak, and probably a couple of things I am
forgetting right now. EAGI only gets you the audio stream in real time
on FD 4 so you can do something like stress analysis or speech
recognition without having to make an app_* for asterisk to do the
work(think linking and licensing problems).
