My current dialplan looks like this, it plays a file and then connects the caller to my phone by dialing out. As you can see, it waits for file to be played completely before dialing out. What I would really like is that it should play the file (preferably repetitively) and simultaneously dial out the number, playback should stop as soon as dial answers or early media detected. exten => 500,1,Answer exten => 500,2,Playback(wait-while-we-connect-you) exten => 500,3,Dial(SIP/14085551234@myprovider) How do I make it work? -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
