asterisk users - Jun 2006 - AMD Machine Detect

Hi -
   
  I have been developing an auto-dialling application similar to Voiceshot,
Call-em-all etc. The one thing I am now struggling to get working is the ability
to leave a message on an answering machine or cell phone voicemail. I am using
app_amd.c and while it works well for some phones it is proving to be very
difficult tweaking the settings to get it to work reliable enough to go to
production. If anyone is using this successfully in a production environment I
would really appreciate any posts of settings you are using. My settings are as
follows:
   
  AMD(3500|1500|300|5000|120|50|5|256)
   
  Thank you.
  Alan.

Al,

 

Are you doing voice broadcasting - that is, delivering a pre-recorded
message, possibly giving a live caller other options?  Just curious.
I've been working on a voice-broadcasting application myself and I've
had mixed success with app_amd.c.  It does work very well in some cases,
but not so well in others.

 

I'm currently experimenting with the dialplan app BackgroundDetect.  For
voice broadcasting apps, BackgroundDetect has the advantage of playing
the message to the caller while simultaneously listening for a live
caller or an answering machine.  This gets rid of the annoying pause
that the caller hears after saying, "Hello."  

 

Here's where I got the idea:

See the section "Basic Answering Machine Detection."
