[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Call Recording and SIP canreinvite

There may be a better way but off the top of my head this idea jumped
out.  It assumes that you know prior to making the call that you need to
record it and that you have phones capable of multiple lines.  

Setup a second line with a different entry in sip.conf with
canreinvite=no and use that line to make your calls.  

Other than that I see reference on the wiki to an H option in dial but
have never used it.  I think you will still need to know prior to
dialing whether you will want to record the call or not so you can dial
the exten that uses the H option.

If you get this to work, please post your results back to this thread.

why not just set canreinvite=yes and on the calls where you don't want
reinvite use the H option (if it actually does disable reinvite) or the
T or t which also disable reinvite. 

7960G Seems to need canreinvite=no as well.

(:confused:) Hmm... Now I started to wonder, if it's somehow possible to
override the canreinvite=no setting on per call basis. Anyone?

Asterisk will not reinvite if the H option is used in the Dial command."
