I'm looking into deploying * for an internal conference call server (using MeetMe) and had a couple of quick questions for those of you who have used it. I checked the Wiki but there weren't a lot of details for MeetMe. - Can you limit the size of a conference "room", ie max 8 people, etc. - Is there a list somewhere (besides the source ;) that has all the commands availible to people in the conferences? Specifically can you do a mute all new callers type action (when people are really just calling up to listen. - Passwords/Pins for the conference rooms? Thanks all, Chris Robertson Network Engineer Instill Corp.
Hi!> - Can you limit the size of a conference "room", ie max 8 people, etc.With MeetMeCount() and GotoIf() you are be able to limit the size of a conference room easily, it's a just a little bit of dialplan magic in extensions.conf.> - Is there a list somewhere (besides the source ;) that has all the commands > availible to people in the conferences?

Put Authenticate() before MeetMe(). http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cmd+Authenticate Cheers, Philipp

Once you're in a conference, you can only exit the conference, if you entered with option p specified in the dialplan, by pressing a #. Otherwise, the only way to exit a conference is to hangup.> Specifically can you do a mute all new callers type action (when > people are really just calling up to listen.You want the monitor-only option, i.e. option m: MeetMe(1234|m)> - Passwords/Pins for > the conference rooms?For dynamic conferences, not yet, but you can with static-defined conferences: conf => 1234,4231 in meetme.conf. You can also pre-enter the PIN for a conference number in the dialplan: MeetMe(1234||4231). This might be useful if you wanted to protect the conference from people who could enter an arbitrary number but were using an alternate method of authentication. Sorry, there is currently no way to have multiple PINs per conference. Note that you do not currently need to restart or reload Asterisk for MeetMe to notice new entries in meetme.conf. -Tilghman

I have already implemented everything you're talking about for several customers. - use MeetMeCount to deny additional users past N members - type "show application MeetMe" to get a list of commands - type "show application Authenticate" for password logic JT
how? I dont see anything in there to listen for a 1 to trigger a recording context... ?

Hi- I have seen several different explanations of how MeetMe is supposed to function. I am having a tough time figuring out which is correct. If I put the room number in the extensions.conf file, I never get prompted for a PIN. When I leave it out of the extensions.conf file, I get prompted for a room number and a PIN. What I want, is to have a room number based on the DID extension that asks the user to enter his/her PIN. I can't make that happen. Here is my current files: extensions.conf: [ext-meetme] exten => 5570,1,Answer exten => 5570,2,wait(1) exten => 5570,3,MeetMe(|M) Meetme.conf: conf => 100,2321 conf => 101,2331 conf => 102,2231 1. How can I get 5570 always go to room 100 and just prompt the caller for a pin? 2. Ideally, I'd like to have a "leader" passcode and a "participant" passcode where the participants can't talk to each other until the leader joins. Any way to do that? Thanks, Wes
