Hi folks,

I'm currently trying to get some early audio, i.e. audio without a 
connection, to the caller to give some cost-free info while the alerting 
phase.

The WIKI's info on the Progress() application says, that just Progress() 
before e.g. a Background(soundfile|n) should work but it doesn't.
In fact, the call times out ("The person you've called is temporarily 
not available") if there is no ringing indication for longer than 30 
secs or so (long sound).
As soon as the Dial application is called, the caller gets a normal 
ringing indication. Dial(...|m) causes the caller to hear nothing and 
the call to timeout.

So, I guess, in addition to Progress(), * has to tell the PSTN that the 
call is proceeding AND that there is audio, i.e. inband information, 
available and it should be passed to the caller.

I guess, the focus should be on the progress indication as the call 
timeout shows, that the PSTN isn't satisfied with just what Progress() 
sends.

Does anyone got this Early-B3 working with BriStuff and HFC-S?

Regards,
Stefan
