Greetings *`s, When initiating a call to an outside line (in this case a cellphone), * starts playing the sound file before the call is answered, so when the called party picks up, the message is already halfway thru, or completely played out. I have tried a few things to get around this, read up on http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0002467 as well as http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+auto-dial+out Has anyone found any workarounds so that the sound file plays only once the call is answered ? -- Chris Blake Cell: 082 775 1492 Work: +27 11 782 0840 Fax : +27 11 782 0841 Mail: chris@pixcel.co.za Today is the first day of the rest of your lossage.
