Asterisk Caller ID Lookup


A plugin which notifies MediaPortal users of incoming asterisk calls with caller number, caller id and contact photo.
Currenty contact information is synchronized from Google Contacts, so you will need a Google account with contacts associated with your account for caller name and photo to work. Great for Android users who store their contacts on their google account.
Plans include contact management, and also synchronization from other sources like Facebook.
