Nop, your dialplan is correct, and this is not a bug. Answer() in first line marks incoming call answered, so counter (also from your provider) is on, and you can't turn it off. Of course, Answer() is required, so that asterisk can start receiving voice, and DTMF to authenticate. If you would want to do your own billing, to count only duration of call dialed to SIP/whatever, you can do 1,Answer() 2,Authenticate() 3,Playback() 4,ResetCDR() 5,Dial() NoCDR would tell to not write CDR for that channel, but ResetCDR later would reset answer status for CDR, and start counting duration from that moment. ResetCDR(w) would make you have two CDR records, one for each part (that can be linked together by using uniqueid). Regards, Atis -- Atis Lezdins VoIP Developer, IQ Labs Inc.
