Thanks for the feed back.<br />
<br />
I am using AGI how would I maintain control with-in my AGI program. The only way to access the Controlplayback would be with the EXEC command based on what I have seen the overhead would kill the app. I would need to issue a Get on each of the variables after each stop. This would cause three to four additional calls. <br />
<br />
The real issue is I need to be able to with a single key press enter in either fast forward or rewind modes. For example when a user presses key 4 start playback in reverse with 500ms skip, if they press 5 Playback normal , If they Press 6 playback fast forward with 1000ms skip. The way all of the current control options are offered requires the user to enter play back first and then press a key for the option. <br />
<br />
Does anyone know if there would be any adverse impact to updating the (STREAM FILE) AGI command to support this?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
Bryant<br />

</span>Controlplayback reports the variables CPLAYBACKSTATUS, CPLAYBACKOFFSET <br />
and CPLAYBACKSTOPKEY. If you like you can define the ff and rev buttons <br />
as stop keys and inspect these variables and then act as you like.<br />
<br />
I've implemented it in the dialplan like this, I use the keys 1,4,7 to <br />
rewind 1, 5 or 15 minutes. And I use the keys 3, 6 and 9 to forward 1, 5 <br />
or 15 minutes.<br />
<br />
Good luck!<br />
