[Freeswitch-users] Question about Lua freeswitch.bridge

[Michael Collins]

Just curious - would a bind_meta_app call work for you? I ask because you
can't do asynchronous operations like you described when calling scripts
from the dialplan. I'm afraid you will need to graduate to ESL. :) Check out
ESL and the event socket on the wiki and chapter 9 of the FreeSWITCH book.

Some things you will want to check out:
uuid_broadcast (to play media to a channel)
the DTMF event (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Event_list#DTMF)
fs-ivrd (example of a daemon that sits there and connects outbound event
socket connects to an ESL script)

Using the event socket allows total and complete 3rd party control of your
sessions. The drawback is the the learning curve. It's a bit steep but it's
worth it.
