Hi, is the following possible? I would like to transfer a call to my "personal" MeetMe conference room and get transferred there automatically as well. Currently I can transfer the call to the conference, have to hangup and then call the conference number myself. I would love to have this in one quick function. Moreover is there a way to disable the "You are currently the only person in this conference" prompt for the first user? I know how to enable/disable this for the following users but not for the first user. Thanks in advance, JP

However, it also disables all the enter/exit sounds and so on, so if you still want those you will have to either: - edit the code to provide another option to turn off that message, or - replace the sound file conf-onlyperson.gsm with a file of zero duration (not necessarily just an empty file - it might still need a header).

Hi Tony,> Look at the option 'G(context^exten^pri)' in the Dial application.Thanks for the hint but I am not sure if this will help me. Either I am too blind to see the solution or I stated the question in an unclear way. :-) What I want is this: 1. Customer calls me or I call customer. 2. In the middle of the call I decide to get an additional collegues in the call. Usually I would put the first call on hold, call the collegue and then press the conference button on my SNOM 360. Unfortunatly there seems to be a problem with the SNOMs and Asterisk 1.2.x since audio on those conferences get distorted after a few seconds. Therefore I need a substitution for this using MeetMe. I thought about this: 3. I transfer the call to my "personal" MeetMe room. In this step I would like not only the customer but also me to be connected to the MeetMe room automatically. Basically I can continue to chat with the customer without him noticing anything. 4. I now put the call on hold and call the collegue. If he wants to join I simply transfer him to the room as well and can continue to do so with other collegues. In order to return to the conference myself I now do not need to call the conference number myself but simply return to the call created in step 3. With the exception of step 3 everything seems easy. How can I solve this with the G-option?> Specifying the 'q' flag to MeetMe disables it. However, it also > disables all the enter/exit sounds and so on, so if you still want > those you will have to either:Yep found that but as you said it disables all sounds.> - edit the code to provide another option to turn off that message, orCan't be too hard.

Your other option would be to e.g. use one of the SNOM buttons to call an action URL (in the middle of the call) that uses the manager API to transfer/bridge certain channels. Or simply play with the codecs of your SNOM and find a codec where you don't get distortion with the phone-based 3pty conference. Cheers, Philipp

Simply transfer the customer to a conference room (I might have a look into the automatically determined conf room number), then transfer all collegues in there as well and finally jump in myself. It is however not quite what I described in step 3. Thanks, JP

Looks interesting. But I am afraid I will need a few more coffees before I tackle that one! :-)> Your other option would be to e.g. use one of the SNOM buttons to > call an action URL (in the middle of the call) that uses the manager > API to transfer/bridge certain channels.

I hope I will find time to wake SNOM regarding this support request. :-) Regards, JP
