asterisk users - Jul 2005 - HOW TO make xten eyebeam incoming video start before you send yours

Sorry, I don't remember who was asking about this, but it seems that if 
you record a video message that contains the send video start, it will 
actually fire up the remote receive window.

I.E. Previously I was using the recording section of voicemail to create 
my video IVR's.  This meant that when I arrived at the section to record 
the message, I had already clicked send video in Xten.

This meant that when you dialed an extension which played back these 
files, the video wouldn't start unless you sent video first.

Now, if you don't click send video in Xten until after you hear the beep 
for recording, it works.  It will play you the video just by dialing the 
extension.

I'm using the latest beta of eyebeam by the way.

Have you changed something for that? What is the dialplan and sip.conf 
for that part?

a. can you call the mailbox to retrieve the video message?
b. can you send the video mail via email?
c. what format is the recording?
