[asterisk-dev] Function Read - Timeout
Just a quick suggestion to enhance function Read. I am using function read in places to provide options to skip announcements or provide hidden features. However the minimum timeout is 1 second which puts an unnatural pause in the flow of announcements when not skipping. It would be great if there was a parameter not to wait for digits. Possible?

Re: [asterisk-dev] Function Read - Timeout
You're holding it wrong. There are several ways to accomplish this, the easiest is to play all sound files with one Read, like: Read(fwdto,call-fwd-unconditionalplease-enter-thedigits/11digit/igc/sounds/destinationtelephone-number,11,,1,6) If you can't play all the sound files with one Read, then use WaitExten and Background: exten = s,1,Noop(Switch Manager IVR) same = n,Answer same = n,Ringing same = n,Wait(1) same = n,Set(LOCAL(count)=0) same = n,While($[${count} 4]) same = n,Set(count=$[${count}+1]) same = n,Background(please-enter-the/igc/sounds/destinationnumber) same = n,WaitExten(5) same = n,EndWhile() same = n,Playback(goodbye) -Original Message- From: asterisk-dev-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-dev-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan White Sent: Friday, April 25, 2014 3:12 PM To: asterisk-dev@lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-dev] Function Read - Timeout Just a quick suggestion to enhance function Read.

Yes that's a good idea. This fixes one of my issues however it doesn't when I have two reads one after the other. It would still be good if there was a parameter to have no delay.
