Hi, of course these music, ivr, messages are early media/session progress which is also limited to by the SIP-timer values of the involved SIP Elements. It depends on the setup, but this is definately possible in certain configurations. I have seen progress messages limited to 2-3 Minutes.. (german mobile carriers), so it would not be possible to play longer announcements/music to these parties... at least without connect :) BR Max M. Am 27.07.2011 15:28, schrieb Stephen Sprunk:

Is he in control of the ringtone ?
I'm wondering if he's trying to play a message to callers without having to pay for minutes.
I've had numerous customers ask for longer ringback timeouts on the calling side; it turns out that the above is a /very/ common practice for toll-free numbers. The menus and hold music are all "ringback" messages, and the call isn't actually "answered" until a human agent gets on the line. As many of us are unfortunately aware from our own experience calling customer (dis)service lines, that can easily exceed five minutes.
