| Description: | Alice dials 5551234 (Bob) through some arbitrary public network
Alice and Bob converse. After an arbitrary period of time, anywhere from 20 seconds to 7 minutes, Bob hears a fax tone. Asterisk starts processing the call as though it were a fax. Alice and Bob are no longer speaking. :( We need a way to allow fax detection to happen for an arbitrary period of time only, and to be disabled after that time. Bob understands that he'll lose the ability to handle a mid-call fax if he enables such an option. * The FAXOPT(faxdetect) option already has a timeout feature but it is broken. If you try to use the timeout it immediately times out and disables fax detection. {{FAXOPT(faxdetect)=yes|cng|t38,<timeout>}} * The channel driver specific fax detect options do not have a timeout feature. | ||
