The play button has a large triangle on it while the stop button has a large square. If the play button is enabled, there is a voice message attached to this call that can be played. If the button is not enabled, the message is either currently being played by a voice modem or there was no message left. You can click on the stop button to interrupt the playback of a message.
Below the Voice Message section, there is some information for fax calls. There is a spot for the Fax ID of the calling fax machine. It may or may not be sent by the remote machine so it might be empty. There is also an indication of how many pages were received. The "Display Fax" button will open a fax window where you can view, print and manipulate the incoming fax.
There are a number of menu items that are enabled in this window or have a slightly different meaning when used in this window:
Menu Item | Description |
File -> Trash Message | This menu item is used to move the current call and any associated voice message and CallerID information into the trash. You must empty the trash yourself to actually delete the file. If the "Preferences -> Minimal Prompts" option is off, a dialog box will be presented to the user to confirm that this is what they want to do. The window will be closed after the file is moved to the trash |
Preferences -> Output Port | This is a submenu which allows you to select the serial port which you would like to play the message on. Only those serial ports that are configured are available |
Preferences -> Output Device | This is a submenu which allows
you to select the output to device to play the message on. You have the
option of playing the message on:
|
You can drop files on this window and BePhoney will attempt to open them as other messages in their own message window. Note that a greeting file is exactly the same as a message file and you can play it back long after recording it by opening at as a message.
Also, the message window is live. If you have configured BePhoneyd to launch incoming calls automatically, the information in the window will be filled in as it becomes available. The play button will become available as soon as the caller finishes recording it.
