If call recordings were stored in stereo and the callers were evenly distributed along the stereo spectrum. BAM. Just a cool idea I thought up, but probably completely impossible, and even if not, likely too much work for too little reward. Even less likely would be live stereo conference calling. But hey, RTP certainly supports stereo streams, right? I don't know if any of the used codecs do. Kinda lame of course that it would only work over softphones. Anyway, just some dumb notion I had.
Evenly distributed? like with conferences? or with Mixmonitor having two sides to record?

Hi Lyle, What you are talking about is spatial distribution, I've already written a post back in 2008 about it here; http://blog.collins.net.pr/2008/08/diamondware-spatial-conferencing.html Cheers, Dean -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Lyle Underwood Sent: Thursday, February 04, 2010 7:40 PM To: asterisk-users at lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] Know what would be killer?

BAM.Cisco has this. It's called telepresence. It costs a LOT of money, and takes a LOT of bandwidth, but you do get spatial distribution with both video and audio. It requires multiple cameras, multiple monitors, multiple microphones, multiple speakers, but it does work.
