Is there any way that you could trigger events based upon actual pickup of
calls and hangups of lines in ALL cases(parked calls, queued calls, calls
triggerd by .call queue files)?

It seems like Asterisk needs something a little lower level to allow for
this, is it even possible?

yes, you're right, i tried to put a ast_cdr_answer when queue makes the
ast_cdr_setdstchan, but it didn't work, or maybe, apps like backgound and
playback should not issue an ast_cdr_answer, so it is ussued only when the
answer is actually answered by someone.


> is you used the queue app, don't you also see a 20 sec event for that ?
