<br>
I want to create a system for incoming calls where, under some<br>
circumstances, callers get routed straight to voicemail (or some other<br>
means of recording a message) but if they enter a valid extension number<br>
then the recorded message would be abandoned and they'd be diverted to<br>
the extension number they entered.<br>
<br>
I realise this can be done with the voicemail app with operator=yes but<br>
the problem with this is that the caller has to press 0 while the<br>
announcement is being played. If they're too slow and recording has<br>
started, they've missed the opportunity.<br>
<br>
So I played around with ConfBridge and a couple of call files, just to<br>
see if I could get it to work. It's a bit convoluted but the idea is<br>
that the caller gets silently put into a conference, then two call files<br>
make asterisk silently connect to other calls into the same conference,<br>
with one doing the recording and the other using Read() to collect<br>
digits.<br>
<br>
If I just had the caller and one of the other calls in the conference<br>
(the one doing Read()) then this worked - Read() managed to read the<br>
DTMF digits and assign them to a variable.<br>
<br>
However, when the 'recording' call is also in the conference, the 'read'<br>
call can no longer recognise the DTMF digits. To test, I made the 'read'<br>
call play a sound before calling Read() and I could hear this being<br>
played so the call was definitely there. However, regardless of the<br>
number of digits I pressed, Read() didn't notice any of them, even if I<br>
introduced a delay so that the other channels were quiet before the call<br>
to Read().<br>
<br>
I realise this might seem a bit like a mad solution but can anyone else<br>
think of a way to get Asterisk to read (and react to) DTMF digits during<br>
a recording?<br>
<br>
This is with Asterisk 1.8.7.<br>
