C.13. Background()

Spielt eine Audiodatei, während Touch-Tone-Ziffern (DTMF-Töne) akzeptiert werden.
Background(Datei1[&Datei2...][,Optionen[,Sprache]])
Spielt die angegebene(n) Audiodatei(en), während auf den Start der Eingabe einer Extension durch den Benutzer gewartet wird. Sobald der Benutzer mit der Eingabe einer Extension begonnen hat, wird die Wiedergabe beendet. Der Dateiname sollte ohne Dateiendung angegeben werden, da Asterisk dann automatisch das Dateiformat mit den geringsten Übersetzungskosten auswählt.
Optionen ist einer der folgenden Werte (nicht kombinierbar):
skip
Die Wiedergabe der Nachricht wird übersprungen, falls sich der Channel gegenwärtig nicht im up-Status befindet (z. B., weil er bisher nicht beantwortet wurde). Ist skip angegeben, wird die Anwendung unverzüglich beendet, falls der Channel aufgelegt ist.
noanswer
Der Channel kann erst beantwortet werden, nachdem die angegebene Audiodatei abgespielt wurde. Ist diese Option nicht angegeben, wird der Channel automatisch beantwortet, bevor die Audiodatei abgespielt wird. Beachten Sie, dass nicht alle Kanäle erlauben, vor ihrer Beantwortung eine Nachricht abzuspielen.
Der Parameter Sprache kann verwendet werden, um eine bestimmte Sprache zu definieren, in der Nachrichten abgespielt werden sollen, falls diese nicht der für diesen Channel aktuell eingestellten Sprache entspricht.
Liefert -1 zurück, wenn aufgelegt wurde oder falls der angegebene Dateiname nicht existiert, sonst 0.

[Synopsis]
Play an audio file while waiting for digits of an extension to go to.

[Description]
  Background(filename1[&filename2...][|options[|langoverride][|context]]):
This application will play the given list of files (do not put extension)
while waiting for an extension to be dialed by the calling channel. To
continue waiting for digits after this application has finished playing
files, the WaitExten application should be used. The 'langoverride' option
explicitly specifies which language to attempt to use for the requested sound
files. If a 'context' is specified, this is the dialplan context that this
application will use when exiting to a dialed extension.  If one of the requested sound files does not exist, call processing will be
terminated.
  Options:
    s - Causes the playback of the message to be skipped
          if the channel is not in the 'up' state (i.e. it
          hasn't been answered yet). If this happens, the
          application will return immediately.
    n - Don't answer the channel before playing the files.
    m - Only break if a digit hit matches a one digit
          extension in the destination context.
See Also: Playback (application) -- Play sound file(s) to the channel,
                                    that cannot be interrupted
