[asterisk-users] How to measure call lenght and act upon it?

[Rennes Neps]

Hei!

I need to accomplish something and I don't know how. Asterisk version is 1.2.13. I need to make a routing decision based on how long the call has been in ringing state. Lets say I have a few extensions and I want to ring each of them for 5 seconds (I can't use queue for technical reasons) Of course when some exten is busy it will try the next and so on. But the difficult part is, I want to play a file when call has been ringing for 10 seconds. No matter where in the routing the call may be ringing at that moment. There for I can't just play the file inside the routing.
	Is there some counter or variable which I could check before each next hop? Or do I have to do the math based on timestamp? That could be messy ... for me at least.

Best regards
