The AGI technology is more "tried and true" (IMHO) than anything you're going to do in the dialplan. If you want to do 2 things, make the agi do this <start music> Fork or shell task 1 Fork or shell task 2 <stop music>
AGI is your "friend" here - the dialplan is definitely going to be more fickle. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Yaroslav Panych Sent: Friday, February 03, 2012 3:32 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] [asterisk-dev] How to play audio file in background in dialplan? 2012/2/3 Steve Edwards <[email protected]>: > Do your processing in an AGI.

But, I still do not understand how I can do something with Asterisk while it locks pbx execution for channel on particular application. I prefer simple solution like: same=>n,start-play-in-background-app(file-to-play) same=>n,do-one-stuff() a-lot-of-`same=>n,do-something`s-here same=>n,do-other-stuff() same=>n,stop-play-in-background-app() In generally I need something like PlayTones/StopPlayTones pair, but instead of giving list of tones/name-of-list I want give name of freshly generated file. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
