Disable early media

[ropeguru]

Morning all...

I have a setup where in incoming DID call gets sent to a ring group for a simultaneous ring of 3 different extensions.

Is there a way to disable early media and not have freeswitch provide the ring back and just allow the caller to hear the provider ringback?

Trying to save a few pennies and not have the pbx answer before and extension is picked up.

You can disable early media but it shouldn't have an impact on billing. Early media is normally initiated with an SDP body associated with a 183 session progress message, the call has not been answered at this point so should not trigger billing.
