On Wed, 26 Sep 2012, Mehdi Rahimi wrote: I want to play music in my AGI while i am searching for a field in DB. Actually during some processes in AGI i need to play music . Many moons ago, I had a client that wanted 'instantaneous' response to a credit card authorization request. (The request could take a couple of seconds because it involved an external vendor.) My solution was an AGI that played a prompt ('Please wait while your card is being processed and get ready for a good time') in one thread while the 'mainline' code processed the auth. By the time the prompt finished, I had the auth response and the 'experience' was that the auth was instantaneous. One of the 'gotchas' is that you can't do any 'AGI' stuff in the mainline code while the background thread is playing the prompt -- which is kind of obvious if you understand the AGI protocol. Another option to consider is the externalivr() application. -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] PLAYIN MUSIC WHILE SEARCHING MYSQL
+1 - if your query is going to take long enough that you need to play music, you need to optimize the process somewhere. FWIW, if you do play music, you will need to "fork" the process as the music process is not asynchronous. -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Thorsten Göllner Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2012 5:11 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] PLAYIN MUSIC WHILE SEARCHING MYSQL Do your query really takes "so" long?
