[asterisk-users] Play Music While Processing AGI Script
Hi All. I have a question - I have an AGI script that may run for 10
seconds, or it may run for 60 seconds while an agent becomes available
(agents are geographically dispersed). Is there a way to have the music
play in the background while the AGI scripts executes? When the AGI script
finishes, then the music should also finish.
I tried this, but the music needs to finish before moving on to step 4 and
execute the script.
exten => _NXZNXXXXXX,1,Answer()
exten => _NXZNXXXXXX,2,MusicOnHold()
exten => _NXZNXXXXXX,3,AGI(SetRecordingID.php,${UNIQUEID})
Any help would be appreciated.
Alex

At the end of each 'play' check to see if the AGI is ready to exit. Off topic, but you can make maintenance of your dialplan easier if you write it like: exten = _nxznxxxxxx,1, answer() same = n, musiconhold() same = n, agi(SetRecordingID.php,${UNIQUEID}) The 'whitespace' and 'lowcasing' is just my personal preference. I would also use 'getopt/longopts' to parse the command line so you can have meaningful (long) options and are not dependent upon passing arguments in a particular order. -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwards at sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-edwards-4244281
