Hi all, Is there a way to connect two live calls through the manager api without directing them to a meeting room? Currently, I can connect them by sending them to a meeting room. However, I don't know what the overhead is, and I kind of think that if I can connect them or link them up, the overhead would be minimum. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Wai. I think you need to be a little clearer on exactly what you want to try and do. Can you please outline a scenario for us. It's not really clear what you mean by 'two live calls'. However, assuming that each 'live call' has an A party and a B party, is this 4 parties you want to connect up? If so, then I think the only way to do this is to use a meeting room as you will effectively have a conference call between 4 parties.

Sorry for being clear in the fast place. The scenario is like this. Two calls coming into * and they are both on different extensions playing messages. Some how a control program decides to bridge them together using the Manager API. Is this possible without sending the calls to a meeting room? -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Mark Edwards Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006 5:33 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Connecting to live calls Wai.

Look at the Manager command 'Redirect' You can specif y two channels to be 'Redirect'ed to each other. The two legs that do not have calls on them anymore will drop. ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Wai Wu Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006 6:07 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Connecting to live calls Sorry for being clear in the fast place.

Maybe I missed something when I went through the source code of 'Redirect'. By no means it 'Redirect' two channels to each other. It just redirect two channels to the same extension. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Alexander Lopez Sent: Wednesday, February 08, 2006 6:40 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Connecting to live calls Look at the Manager command 'Redirect' You can specif y two channels to be 'Redirect'ed to each other.
