asterisk users - Dec 2008 - [SPAM] - Re: CDR Design - Email found in subject

Hi murf,

Speaking as someone who designs and builds billing platforms, this is
very exciting.

One little thing I have most problems with is the good old fax
detection.  I know that NVFaxDetect et al do actually answer the call
and, therefore, get flagged as ANSWERED in the CDR.

But, if the call never gets answered after the initial detection - then,
to my customer, it is a missed (NO ANSWER) call.

Is there anyway of following that scenario?

In other words:

 Call comes in over DAHDI, ZAP or mISDN channel
 NVFaxDetect samples call
 It's not fax, so call is passed on...
 Call never gets answered and caller hangs up.

I appreciate that the NV suite are not Digium products - but it would be
nice if the new CDR information could at least flag it up as a 'type',
so that I can manually (well, via. my code) trace the call through to
check for human intervention.

Actually, the same would go for v1.6 and it's built in fax detection :).

I hope that makes sense.

Cheers
Andy

Hi everybody,

I have an application that uses Originate AMI command to initiate outbound
calls. However, I cannot find any way of redirecting calls that were originated
to a fax machine to some other extension (e.g. fax extension). Is this possible?

Or is there any way to get info from the AMI that the originated call went to a
fax machine?

BR, Dex

Perhaps AMD() supports this. Not necessarily reliably.
