[asterisk-users] Newbie Queue: greetings when first joiningqueue

[Mark Hamilton]

Lee,

I'm pretty sure you can using macros and what not. Unfortunately, I'm not
that experienced to comment on it, but I'm positive that can be done with
one of those if, else things.

Mark.

Thanks Mark for your suggestion.
The issue with this is the first caller will always have to listen to
this greeting regardless.
Is there anyway to check if there is anyone in the queue before this
greeting is played?
In other words, if the queue is empty, then just "Queue".
If queue is not empty, then "Playback + Queue".

Is this possible?
