Hello, To detect an answering machine I have found following two commands, BackgroundDetect (comes with asterisk) MachineDetect (asterisk add-ons) First question, does BackgroundDetect works well with g729? I havn't try MachineDetect yet, what is the benefit of MachineDetect over BackgroundDetect. If anybody used any of this command successfully, please help me. If possible, please let me know a good example of using these commands. What are the common mistakes users do to use these commands? Is there any documentation available arround other than voip-info.org Thanks -- You don't have any choice, you already made it before you came here.

Question: does anyone know the procedure for installing app_amd? I could find app_amd.c and applications.conf.sample from the site below, but I couldn't find any information on actually setting up app_amd. Can anyone shed some light on this? Also, is there a project page for app_amd somewhere? Just curious. -MC -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Kevin Bockman Sent: Sunday, January 22, 2006 4:04 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Detection of Answering Machine Innocent Evil wrote:> To detect an answering machine I have found following two commands, > > BackgroundDetect (comes with asterisk) > MachineDetect (asterisk add-ons)Check out http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=5959 app_AMD blows everything else out of the water.

copy app_amd.c to /usr/src/asterisk/apps (or wherever you have the asterisk source) copy the config file to /etc/asterisk in the apps directory, add the line 'APPS+=app_amd.so' to the makefile after the experimental things section so it looks like: # # Experimental things # APPS+=app_amd.so in the /usr/src/asterisk directory: make clean make make install cheers cameron> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: "Michael Collins" <mcollins@fcnetwork.biz> > To: "Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion" > <asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> > Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 14:47:53 -0800 > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Detection of Answering Machine > Question: does anyone know the procedure for installing app_amd?

Thanks! I figured that process out the hard way all on my own, but I'm glad you put it down in documented form. -MC -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Cameron Grant Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 5:08 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Detection of Answering Machine copy app_amd.c to /usr/src/asterisk/apps (or wherever you have the asterisk source) copy the config file to /etc/asterisk in the apps directory, add the line 'APPS+=app_amd.so' to the makefile after the experimental things section so it looks like: # # Experimental things # APPS+=app_amd.so in the /usr/src/asterisk directory: make clean make make install cheers cameron> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: "Michael Collins" <mcollins@fcnetwork.biz> > To: "Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion" > <asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> > Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2006 14:47:53 -0800 > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Detection of Answering Machine > Question: does anyone know the procedure for installing app_amd?
