asterisk users - Apr 2010 - Hangup after n seconds using originate ?

Hi All,

I would like to know if you can confirm that, if using origination via AMI, as
documented here:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Manager+API+Action+Originate
it is not possible to set the max duration of a call.

I mean: what you would do with the L (limit) parameter of the command Dial,
is not possible when originating.

As well as using the absolute timeout, as documented here:
http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/timeoutabsolute_function.html
can't be done when originating.

Is this true ?

I'm using version 1.4.


Thanks for supporting,
have a nice day.
Mike

Have you tried setting 'Variable: TIMEOUT(absolute)*=*60' or something
like
that when creating the originate command?

I don't know if it works, but it is worth a shot.
