[Asterisk-Dev] Disabling native bridging altogether?

[mattf]

There are other issues with native bridging that would warrant a Dial flag
to disable them at least per dial. For instance, two natively bridged Zap
channels cannot be recorded(only records one side of the audio). One current
way to disable native bridging upon Dial is to add the 't' flag, of course
that also opens up the ability to transfer out of the call which is
sometimes undesireable, but it is a workaround that does work on all types
of channels.

Gary,

Not sure how that would help...

The issue occurs when the extension is not busy, and the call is 
transferred.  The native transferring is being done when I don't want it to 
be done.
