Re: [asterisk-users] queue welcome message
Hello! just fyi. If anyone wants to use the same function - here is the solution I found: Before calling the queue() do a queue_member_count and if < 1 do not call the queue. Works fine with dynamic members. if you use static members - I think there is no solution ;-) best regards Martin - Original Message - From: Martin Schrott - thinking:systems To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 6:18 AM Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] queue welcome message Hello Tarek, thank you for your idea. But this only would work for the first caller - when the moh starts. all other callers go directly into moh on the position where the first caller is in moh. So this does not work. :-( Anyone an other idea? thank you Martin - Original Message - From: Tariq ..

I would like to ask, how you realize the following in a call queue: When a caller gets into a queue how can I play a welcome Message to this caller first, before he starts hearing the music? We now use a playback before the caller gets into the queue. But when the queue is closed the caller heared already that somebody will pick up soon, but then gets into voicemail - because the queue has no members. So it would be great to let the queue welcome the caller at first and then start music. Is this possible? specifiing a queue-youarenext does only work when the caller is not the first in line. specifiing a periodic announce does play the message after the periodic-announce-frequency has been over. Is there also something else we can use? Thank you Martin Earn cashback on your purchases with Live Search - the search that pays you back!
