Summary:                    call recording in attended transfer
Description: 
Hello,

Call recordings for my attended transfer are stored in two seperate
files.
A calls B and then B transfer the call to C using *2 feature, then B and C
talk. After that B hangups and then A and C talk.  
In this scenario first recording file contains talk between A & B and A &
C
and second file contains talk between B & C and then A & C . Is there a
way to merge these recordings into a single file (atleast avoid the
multiple recording of the same face i.e between A & C)

Following is the way mixmonitor have been setup in dialplan.

This is not a bug -- it is the way that call recording works in Asterisk.

The first recording is setup and associated with channel A and any
channels that it speaks with.

The second recording is setup and associated with channel B and any
channels that it speaks with.

You may be able to get creative and use some applications to automatically
split the calls based on time and patch them together, but from the
viewpoint of Asterisk this is not a bug.
