[asterisk-users] Overlapping Playback() with Dial()?
Hi All, Can I overlap Playback() with Dial() in a dialplan? For example, I have this scenario: A call comes in, Asterisk picks it up, does Background(enter_number), then does Playback(bulletin_message), and while the Playback() is still going, I want to execute Dial() to the target extension so it overlaps with the Playback() and the call will be bridged instantly upon completion of Playback(). Is this possible in Asterisk? I am trying to save callers long distance charges by eliminating wait time as much as possible. Thank you. Jeng - Yahoo! Mail is the world's favourite email.

Otherwise use a queue and put the audio as the announcement.
