Is there any way to play background music on a sip phone
while the phone is not in use like many legacy pbx's offer?
Could you take 7960 and use the 6th line in a similar fashion
to the all setup maybe?
Thoughts ideas?

With a 7960 you could easily just dial a music on hold extension using 1 of the 6 lines then you could put that on speaker when you aren't using your phone.

Thinking about it further you could set the 6th line to autoanswer and have the pbx call you and play MOH when none of your lines on the asterisk box are in use.

Sure, create an extension that has on-hold music and dial it on the speaker
phone using the second line.

The sound quality is horrible for music even on a good speakerphone. You've probably got a computer and decent speaks right there, why not just fire up xmms? -- Tracy Reed The attachment is a digital signature. http://copilotconsulting.com More info: http://copilotconsulting.com/sig -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
