[asterisk-users] monitor application, file name change on attended transfer

[Binan AL Halabi]

Hi,

You are using b flag in monitor command. This means don't begin recording untill call is bridged.
So what you get if you delete this flag ?

Ämne: [asterisk-users] monitor application, file name change on attended transfer
 
Hi

I have some problem with monitor application when call i transferred in attended mode and the transfer occurs before call is answered.

Here is how it looks:

A calls ----> B(let's assume ${UNIQUEUEID}=1)

exten => _XXXX,1,NoOp
seme => n,Set(MONITOR_FILENAME=call-${UNIQUEID})
same => n,monitor(alaw,/var/spool/asterisk/monitor/${MONITOR_FILENAME},bm)

When B answers the call, files call-1-in* and call1-out* are created. During The call, B tries to make attended transfer A is put on hold and B calls C using the same dialplan logic:

B calls ----> C(let's assume ${UNIQUEUEID}=2)

At the time off invoking monitor application none off the call-2 channels are monitored so the monitor application starts without errors, if B waits till C answers, everything is OK monitor starts recording and files call-2-in* and call-2-out* are created, When B transfers the call call-2 monitor is stopped. And call-2 files contain only the call between B and C.

But there is problem when B does not wait until C answers the call, if transfer is done before C answers the call, the call-2* are not created and the call is still recorded to the call-1* files, but when the transferred call between A and C ends, the call-1* files get renamed to call-2* and the MONITOR_EXEC application is called with call-2* file names as parameters.

This makes it impossible to locate the call record since the file names get changed, can someone tell if I should file a BUG report or is it intended to act like this?

Regards
