[Freeswitch-users] playAndGetDigits working as designed?

[Avi Marcus]

it's playing twice because of the second accept -- that's what it plays
upon invalid entry. But you don't want any message on non-match.
You might want getdigits<http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_lua#session:getDigits>,
a
simpler way to get input without retry options.

Wait, are you using this for confirm of pickup for hunting to mobiles?
Doesn't http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Variable_group_confirm_file work
for you? It seems to fit my use case.
