<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>My setup : Trixbox 2.6.1 & TE410P running well
.I've 2 design issues to consider :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>1. I need to store the CallerId of the PSTN caller
with his language preference so that next time he is played the prompt in his
language that he chose the first time.What would be better - storing his number
in the Asterisk DB and using Dbput and DBget ? or storing it in MySQL from the
dial plan and quering it everytime to see the callers record ? how many records
can AstDB handle safely ? In my case the total records wont exceed 20,000 since
there are many repeat callers ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>2. I need all your help in writing an IVR program
in Asterisk - i prefer AGI and PHP. The caller calls into the system - he is
asked to record his Name (IVR plays it back and confirms) next he is aked to
record his age (IVR plays back and confirms) and next he is asked to record his
address(IVR plays back and asks his confimration) ..I wud typically want all
this to be stored in a single file which my agent would listen and record a
response to it. My queries : i) Is it advisable to record the
caller responses as a single prompt in append modes or 3
separate files and combine them using php since everytine the IVR wud
confimr the input it shd play only that particular promt for ex: while
asking for age confirmation it shd only play "you entered age as:"
<caller response on age>, how will asterisk know where to play from in
that single file if i choose to go wiht just 1 file? how can i use
mixmonitor effectively</FONT></DIV>
