Hi David, How long does this stream take to arrive when you put a caller on hold?
In a similar vain I was thinking about Video on Hold. It occurs to me that if there was a video file captured into someone's VM account we'd be able to migrate it over the the MOH and thus callers would hear the audio part and see the video part. This certainly works where a video VM message is left for a non video user.
