i'm using modified version for 1.4. it playes wav as backround and it is 
possible to detect fax during play (using asterisk dsp library). It 
cannot be detected when channel are bridged.

I'm interested if it is technically possible to detect fax tone during 
bridged channesl on SIP in easy way. Any suggestions?
