I'll play with this later today when I have more time. I was
invoking it from the command line, and there could be a syntax
issue. For example, I was using "now" instead of "NOW" per the
instructions given at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.qsl.net/w2ymm/news_script.html">http://www.qsl.net/w2ymm/news_script.html</a> so
not sure if that was it or not. From the command line, I was
sending:<br>
/etc/asterisk/local/playnews/playnews-0.11 ARN now 27065 G<br>
and also<br>
/etc/asterisk/local/playnews/playnews-0.11 ARN now 27065<br>

ONLY needs to be in place on the node playing the news. The
reason for this is that there is no blocking on playing audio
files in Asterisk/Allstar. That is you play it and it goes
into a buffer and you have no control over knowing when it
ends or even canceling it. The playnews script gets around
this by carefully timing the segments and using delay (sleep)
statements to ensure that nothing gets out of sync, If
telemetry (playing of the audio) was held off at any point due
to a keyup from anywhere it would screw up the sync. Having
holdofftelem=0 avoids this.</div>

<p>Thanks, Bill. I was wondering if this is one of those
seldom used features that nobody has actually tried yet,
and I happened to be the one that found out that it did
not work? I tried it between the Pi and an ACID node as
well as between the Pi and a DIAL node with no luck. I
made sure the other node was connected before invoking
the script, and that all nodes had "holdofftelem=0"<br>
