[asterisk-users] make asterisk do something when an outgoing call is picked up

[John Kiniston]

Lee I recommend you use the MixMonitor application along with a combination
of Playback to play your message to the Calling party and the A argument to
Dial to play a file to the called party.

So for your outbound calls:

exten => _NXXXXXX,1,NoOP()
same =>                 n,MixMonitor(recording-${CDR(UNIQUEID)}.wav)
same =>
n,Playback(this-call-may-be-monitored-or-recorded,noanswer)
same =>
n,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},A(this-call-may-be-monitored-or-recorded))

While your inbound calls would look like

exten => s,1,NoOP()
same  =>   n,Answer()
same =>    n,MixMonitor(recording-${CDR(UNIQUEID)}.wav)
same  =>   n,Playback(this-call-may-be-monitored-or-recorded)
same  =>
n,Dial(SIP/1001,Playback(this-call-may-be-monitored-or-recorded,))
