Hi Tilghman , thanks for the help. ControlPlayback can't be used with ExternalIVR, can it ? We use ControlPlayback in our current dialplan, what I am wanting (in concept) is to have a meetme/conference room where one of the parties is a caller, and the other party a file to be controlplaybacked by the caller ;) Best I have come up with so far is to start an attendant menu, get some curl data, if blank WaitExten() loop back to start, if not ControlPlayback the data. If I also background() some music file, will that play while the loop is running ? I suspect that it will start again from the beginning.

Using this approach, I was able to mix Music on Hold and a program I wrote to check for new mail (my event in this case was an IMAP NewMail notify event) - when new mail was identified, I was able to convert it using a TTS engine and play it back for the user using ControlPlayback. The start and stop of Music on Hold was key for me. It was non-blocking audio playback. YMMV.
