[Freeswitch-users] Is it possible to ring user without bridging?

[Mario G]

I posted this then MC responded to Can ringback be variable in bridge command?. See that thread for full description but basically, if no one answers a call (bridge timeout) I bridge again to internal users and cell phones. It's before the second bridge that I ring another set of users for 1 second, they are the same phones but setup to ring differently so we know the call is about to bridge to the cell phones. It's very handy but if someone picks up during that 1 ring then there a problem. Thanks for any help, it's a real head scratcher for me. Works fine except for this inconvenience which for some reason "seems" happening more since I updated FS.
