Dear list, we would really like to be able to "invite a third and fourth party" to our current one-on-one call. At the moment, we have to agree to dial into MeetMe 10 minutes later, then make calls to the third parties, and hope it all works out. I have found a couple of examples on the Internet for converting channels into conferences, but I could not get any of them working. Does anyone have a working example they would be willing to share?

With our Polycom 501 phones we can put a third and fourth party on our two-way call without using the meetme app. You just hit the "conference" button on the phone during a call and add your third person and do the same for your fourth person. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of martin f krafft Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 1:02 PM To: asterisk users mailing list Subject: [asterisk-users] Impromptu conferencing Dear list, we would really like to be able to "invite a third and fourth party" to our current one-on-one call.
