[asterisk-users] restrictions on meetme with agi background
I am reading comments on the Wiki for meetme http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cmd+MeetMe from 2004 about how and AGI does work with non zap channels. Is this still valid 3 years later and 1.4.4? How do I bring people into a meetme and play a message to all of them when they are on SIP channels? Jerry

That part of the Meetme architecture hasn't changed at all.> How do I bring people into a meetme and play a message to all of them > when they are on SIP channels?One way to play an announcement into a conference is to define two extensions - one which Answers and invokes Meetme with the q option, and another which waits for e.g. 1 second and then plays the accouncement. You the create a call, using either a call file or the manager interface. The Channel for the call should be a Local channel that calls the first extension, and the Context/Exten/Priority should specify the second. Another way is to enhance Meetme itself to provide a command to play an announcement file to a specified conference.
