[Freeswitch-users] Channel variable 'call_timeout'.

[Michael S Collins]

Tamas,

The channel variable won't work for you if you can't ignore early  
media. Your best bet is to use the variable execute_on_answer to  
transfer an answered call to a new extension. Then you could just  
sleep for 15sec and then check the value of endpoint_disposition.

What is the application that you are working on?
