having another look at your email now that I have more time to examine it. I think that is relatively simple for us to do unless I am misunderstanding.<br><br>You want to make an inbound sip call that then results in an outbound call and you do not want to connect the audio until the moment that the far end party answers right?<br>
<br>With freeswitch you have many choices when originating and bridging a call and it's possible to influence the behavior in many ways.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Apr 5, 2008 at 2:03 AM, Michael Collins <<a href="mailto:mcollins@fcnetwork.com">mcollins@fcnetwork.com</a>> wrote:<br>

<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">I can attest to the fact that FreeSWITCH
is a great project with a really cool community. Right now the IRC
channel is the best place to get quick, specific information on how to handle
the kinds of things you're looking to do. One of the important
things about FS is that the devs made extremely wise engineering decisions long
before a single line of code was written. They made sure that FS would be
extremely flexible in what it can do. One byproduct of that is that we
get visitors asking, "Hey, can FreeSWITCH do this?" when no one
here had thought of that before. In many cases it can indeed "do
that," but it takes a little tweaking and some attention from the
experts. Definitely hop on the IRC channel #freeswitch; the main devs
generally are there during the day and some evenings. </span></font></p>

<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">If you do get FS up and running,
especially in a production environment, we would ask that you consider
documenting your setup on the wiki. We hope to lower the barrier to entry
for others with similar needs by having good documentation, but of course we
also like to brag about what FS can do! </span></font><font color="navy" face="Wingdings" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: navy;">J</span></font><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;"></span></font></p>

<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Greetings
all,</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I've
just stumbled upon your project and it may solve an issue we are having. </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><br>
I've just spent about 3 weeks getting to know asterisk just to discover I
don't think it can do what I need.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><br>
We have a project where we have incoming calls on a SIP channel. We need
to do a direct forward of these calls to an outgoing channel based to a number
which is from our database. Simple to do in asterisk, but the problem is
that we cannot have these calls "connected" between the two lines.
They have an automated message at the beginning that is being activated
when we do the answer before the dial of the second number in asterisk.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Out
first idea is to bridge the incoming call directly to the outgoing call.
The problem is that the incoming call cannot be "answered" and then
we initiate the outgoing call. It needs to be a seamless bridge between the
two calls. A nice feature would be to have a timer on the call. I
saw a bounty for the timer feature, so I'm guessing (hoping) the bridging
part can be done now. </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">One
other thought we are having is the ability to leave the incoming line "ringing"
and dial the outgoing line until it is answered. At that time, answer the
incoming and then bridge them together.</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">So
my question is: Can freeswitch do these things?</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="2"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Thanks
and congratulations on the nice work!</span></font></p>
