[asterisk-users] Silent Dialing

[Darryl Dunkin]

Thanks, that is what I checked, there is nothing in there that would
appear to do it.

I wasn't sure if there were any hidden variables I could set beforehand.

I'll try the MOH class as it might work. The ringback tones are
indicating that an external system is being called, and we are trying to
integrate these as seamlessly as possible.

'core show application dial' should give you an idea of what to play
around with...

In a similar scenario, once I used the 'm' option, with a special moh
class. The moh class had some soft ticking sound because the remote
system was not correctly indicating ringing, and sometimes delayed the
audio ringing tone too much.

This sorts of comforts users with a something-is-going on feedback
sound, without having a double tone sequence. I don't know if it's the
right way, it worked for me. I actually prefer to have two ringback
tones.
