[Asterisk-Users] Caller entered digits ignored during wait....

[Gene Kochanowsky]

Greetings,   Below is part of the contents of my extensions.conf file.   exten => s,1,Wait,1                               ; Wait a second before answering. exten => s,2,Answer exten => s,3,ResponseTimeout,10                      ; Set the amount of time the user                                                             ; has to make a selection. exten => s,4,DigitTimeout,5                    ; Set the amount of time user has                                                             ; between each number entry when                                                             ; dialing an extension. exten => s,5,Background(welcome) exten => s,6,Background(parties) exten => s,7,Wait(10) exten => s,8,Background(parties) exten => s,9,Wait(10) exten => s,10,Background(vm-goodbye) exten => s,11,Hangup   I can make a menu selection as long as Background is running however during Wait(10) DTMF digits are ignored. How can I wait for a response and register the response at the same time? I supposed I could create a sound file of 10 second duration and play this but that seems kinda like a hack to me.   Gene Kochanowky
