What about those of us who want the features and sound quality of a SIP or IAX phone but can not see the display to read the caller ID? I have been looking for a way to have the Caller ID played to me before I get dropped someone I may not want to talk to. But have yet to see a way to get any app but meatme to bridge the two channels of in progress calls.
I think the example shown should work but how do you bridge in the calling party after hearing the caller ID info.

Are there still people unwilling to spring the extra 50 cents to get caller-id on a phone? This isn't an applet. You are wanting to use festival to deal with the fact that the caller-id text could be anything. In fact if you put it together, I might have to play tricks on you sending unpronounceable text in the caller-id. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Dev mailing list Asterisk-Dev@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Dev mailing list Asterisk-Dev@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
