[asterisk-users] Fax Detection on outbound call

Here's the dialplan I am using at the moment.

[dialer-test-2]
exten => _X.,1,Set(TIMEOUT(resposnse)=10)
exten => _X.,n,dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN},60,M(detect-fax^1^2))
exten => _X.,n,noop(back from dial in dialer-test-2)
exten => t,1,noop(timeout)

[macro-detect-fax]
exten => s,1,noop(detecting fax)
exten => s,n,NVFaxDetect(6|nt|2000)
exten => s,n,noop(after NVFaxDetect)
exten => fax,1,noop(got fax)
exten => fax,n,hangup
exten => talk,1,noop(got talk)
exten => talk,n,hangup

At present, NVFaxDetect doesn't appear to pick up fax tone when I dial out
to a fax machine.

Of course this may end up a question re debugging of asterisk dsp.c!

Cheers,

Mark.
