<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Call an "AGI" right before the start of the Dial
command to record the start time and ether use an manager application (makes
use of manager API) or call an DeadAGI once the call has ended (from the
"h" extension). This requires a bit of programming - but then again
some programming is required anyway to display the actual talk time somewhere.
It might also be that I'm an programmer and I attempt to solve all problems
writing programs, so maybe someone else has a better idea!</span></p>

<br>
Someone wants to actively monitor the duration of a call, while the call is
still in progress. Obviously, in Asterisk, once the Dial() application starts,
you lose dial plan control until after the call has ended, successful or
otherwise.<br>
<br>
Anyone know if that kind of thing is possible?<br>
