display asterisk callerID on a dreambox digital TV set top box
Monday, July 16. 2007
In addition to my recent article how to display asterisk CallerID on a Slimserver, I would like to give some instructions about how to do the same with a Dreambox (digital DVB-[T/C/S] receiver running linux) so that a incomming call will be alerted on your TV screen.
Its quite simple, just put at a usefull location in your asterisks extension.conf the following line:
exten => 2210,4,System(/usr/bin/wget -q -b http://dreambox/cgi-bin/"message?${CALLERID(num)} ${CALLERID(name)}")
where
2210: is your extension
dreambox: is the IP (or DNS entry) of your dreambox.
