This is an example of adding the CallerIDNum/Name to the event. http://dynx.net/ASTERISK/gnudialer/channel.c.hangup_callerid_ast1419.diff > I've also noticed that Events keep popping up during the life-time of > the Origination.

That will produce another manager event, which will provide a Reason: code. That code is the 'AST_CONTROL' of what last happened on that channel. frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_HANGUP 1 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_RING 2 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_RINGING 3 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_ANSWER 4 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_BUSY 5 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_TAKEOFFHOOK 6 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_OFFHOOK 7 frame.h:#define AST_CONTROL_CONGESTION 8 ... > 2.
