[Asterisk-Dev] Maximum wait for I/O in bridged channels

[Juan Jose Comellas]

When having channels that are bridged, is there a maximum amount of time we 
can wait for I/O on the channels?

I'm asking this because I'm having some problems with ast_channel_bridge() (in 
channel.c). This function makes a call to ast_waitfor_n() with an infinite 
timeout and I have a problem in which sometimes I stop receiving data from the 
channels in a bridge and they remain hung until I "soft hangup" them from the 
console. To solve this (symptom) I wanted to add a maximum timeout to the 
ast_waitfor_n() in ast_channel_bridge(). 

Any suggestions?
