[asterisk-dev] App Dial with option r or m being able to sendearly media

[Gaspar Zoltan]

Hi,
 
After some initial success we came to a halt but just today we came to a
breakthrough and made some successful calls.
We have the modified code, but now we have to look if there are any
side-affects. 
 
I will create a case in the bug tracker and where I will upload the patch
and the test-case we used.
 
Thanks for you interest regarding this issue.
Gaspar Zoltan

Hi,
 
I was asked to develop a feature thar switches between the ringing tone and
early media. So when you dial asterisk starts generating ringing tone, but
when the called channels starts sendig RTP (like mobile carriers: "The
person you are trying to reach is unavailable") with or without answering
the channel, the asterisk would have to end generating the ringing tone and
send the media it receives.
 
The fix of this issue is simple:
On line 659 of app_dial (1.4.11) we have
if (!ast_test_flag(outgoing, OPT_RINGBACK | OPT_MUSICBACK))
 
if we remove this if or conditionate it with a channel variable it will have
the functionality mentioned above.
 
I suggest to create a variable called DIALEARLYMEDIA This would default to
false (current functionality). If you set this to True the channel will have
the new improved functionality.
 
What do you think?

I would also like to see this type of patch, as it would give better
response feedback to my customer base.  Currently, they hear _either_ a very
long silence (on some international calls, as an example) _or_ they hear a
ringtone and then I have to play back the error message of my own, which
often has nothing to do with the actual message that is played back from the
distant end.  Having a mix based on circumstance would be ideal.
 
Please reply to this thread with the patch # in bugzilla if you create such
a variable-based method.
