I currently have about 50 polycom 501 phones on my asterisk setup.
The dialplan is set to work with mysql (realtime), and all of the
extensions for the phones route through the same macro (stdexten).
This all works fine until I tried to set up notify status.
On voip-info, they say do something like...
4444,hint,SIP/4444
4444,1,Dial(SIP/4444)
blah blah blah
This functionality works fine. But what if you have a macro
s,hint,SIP/${ARG1}
s,1,Dial(SIP/${ARG1}
this adds a "s" hint which obviously doesn't work, instead of a hint
for 4444 as it should.
Yes. Put in the correct hint. There is no reason that
"4444,hint,SIP/4444" would not work in a macro.

So, if I understand you correctly, my macro would look something vaguely
like...
[macro-stdexten]
${ARG1},hint,SIP/${ARG1}
s,1,Dial(${ARG1})?
This will work? My understand was that by going into a macro, you were
going to be using the "s" extension. I'm not sure how that hint would
get called if its not inside the s extension.
I have no idea, but as I understand it, Hints are separate from extensions.
I guess you could do something like:
[macro-stdexten]
exten => s,1,Goto(${MACRO_EXTEN},1)
exten => _XXXX,hint,SIP/${ARG1}
exten => _XXXX,1,Dial(${ARG1})
I do this sort of thing in many of my macros that Dial somewhere. I
seem to remember something about hints not working for pattern matching.
or working weirdly.

Hints do not have to be part of the steps in a dialplan, and if you want
devices to be listeners, they shouldn't be. Also you had stated you
where using realtime, and the hint priority doesnt work in realtime, I
submitted a bug about this and it was rejected as won't fix, but was
explained as, not going to be fixed anytime soon.
At an rate make a hint context that has devices mapped to extensions,
[hint-context]
4444,hint,Sip/4444
4445,hint,Sip/4445
and the like, then add that context in sip.conf for all devices both
monitored and listeners,
subscribecontext=hint-context
Then ast will send update notifications about these devices to watchers
properly.
Hope this helps,
Anthony

Anthony,
I didn't realize you could do hints like that. This will be very
interesting if I can make it work....
In extensions.conf, I added
[hint-context]
4444,hint,SIP/4444
5053,hint,SIP/5053
I think added an include to my main context (internal). I'm assuming
these need to be included.
In sip.conf, I added:
subscribecontext = hint-context
notifyringing = yes
and in the phone directories, I added: <bw>#</bw> to the corresponding
entries.
However, the phones show as "offline" and using "show hints" from the
cli also says no hints.
Any ideas?
