<br>
Joshua's solution seems a lot simpler and works well. Only one thing<br>
now - The reason I named the classes as I did, was so that I could<br>
select the class based on callerID plus extension.<br>
<br>
Unless I've misread it, I'm limited to 9 switchable classes via the<br>
"digit=#" option, is that correct?<br>
<br>
Or is there a clever hack around this?<br>
<br>
extensions.conf<br>
<br>
[streamdemo]<br>
exten => s,1,Answer<br>
exten => s,2,BackGround(menu)<br>
exten => s,3,WaitExten<br>
exten => _[2,3,4,5],1,MusicOnHold(${<wbr>CALLERID(name)}${EXTEN})<br>
;exten => s,5,Goto(s,2)<br>
exten => _[X,t,i],1,Goto(streamdemo,s,<wbr>2)<br>
<br>
and in musiconhold.conf (4 is commented out as it's AAC and I've not<br>
figured that one out yet - bonus points to someone who can point the<br>
way!)<br>
