I have benn having trouble with the Monitor Command. Basically any time that I send a call into a MeetMe room I am only able to monitor half of the conversation. File-in is recorded with the incoming voice but file-out does NOT record anything. I have tried this with both the b and m option as well as without any options to the MeetMe command. Also the Monitor correctly records both sides of the channel when I do not send the channel to a MeetMe room (send them to another extension). The only thing I can think may be wrong is that for some reason the call is never considered "bridged" when I send the call directly to a MeetMe room. Any Ideas? Are there any ways to record a MeetMe room when there is more than one channel connected? Thanks Michael -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Use the manager API to send a call from the meetme room to an extension that
does Monitor for a specified period of time. That is how we do it in the
astGUIclient suite and it works great.
; extensions.conf entry:
; this is used for recording conference calls, the client app sends the
filename
; value as a callerID, recordings go to /var/spool/asterisk/monitor
exten => 8309,1,Answer
exten => 8309,2,Monitor(wav,${CALLERIDNUM})
exten => 8309,3,Wait,3600
exten => 8309,4,Hangup
Manager Command:
Action: Originate
Channel: Local/68600012@default
Context: default
Extension: 8309
Priority: 1
CallerID: FilenameGoesHere1234

Matt,
How do you stop the recording if it is set for a period of time? Eg if
set the period as 30 minutes and the call finishes early will it cease
recording or hold up the line for 30 mins

In our client apps, we track the call placed and Hangup that call when
conference is over. All you need to do is either have a function that hangs
up those recording channels if they are the only one in the conference(perl
script running periodically parsing "Show Channels") Or you could link
a
button on an app or web page to a function that would hangup the channels
that are connected to a specific meetme room.
It's not the easiest thing to program, but it always works and it is the
only reliable way that Asterisk lets you record conferences. Our company has
done hundreds of thousands of recordings this way over the last 2 years.
