Yes, it works and I use it already! But when caller go to extension 1
there are a 10 second warning message and when go to extension 2 there are
a 6 second message and so on...
I should not to exceed 3minutes time limit, but use connection to last the
last seconds...
Because all the lines are same I want to make a macro
or something like this

exten => _X,1,Set(_AudioLength=MeasureSomehow(warning${EXTEN})
exten => _X,n,Set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=${${MaxCallDuration}-${AudioLength}})
exten => _X,n,DoSomeJob

exten => T,1,Playback(warning${EXTEN})
exten => T,n,Hangup

I can't figure out what command can I write instead of MeasurSomehow.
