Hi.. How do you accept user input while waiting or playing moh? My Dialplan is as follows.. ring,ring,.. Hello thanks for calling blah blah... Please enter the extention number blah blah... WaitMusicOnHold(10) If no input pass call to operator.. The problem is that the user has to input the extension while they are being told what to do.. any input during Wait or WaitMusicOnHold is ignored... Thanks.. -- ______________________________________________ http://www.linuxmail.org/ Now with e-mail forwarding for only US$5.95/yr Powered by Outblaze
Not all of the * wait commands respond to dtmf whilst playing back. Couldn't you use the "Background" application to play the music? That does respond to dtmf whilst playback is in progress.

Two issues with using "Background".. 1) Background plays GSM files while moh uses MP3.. 2) Background will play the whole file before moving on so I would need to make a file that will play for the number of seconds that I want to wait for user input..where as WaitMusicOnHold has a configurable timeout..
