> Would it be possible to add an option in MeetMe to start the conference with all non-admins muted?  It's just that the only way you can do that at the moment is to individually set non-admins to be initially muted when they join (using the 'm' option in Meetme), however that then doesn't work well with the global mute/unmute function in the admin menu (the one accessed with the * key), as that sees the conference as being initially globally unmuted, and thus the first time you toggle it, it mutes all the non-admins in the conference, even though (in this example) they're all already muted!  In other words, if the non-admins start off individually muted and the admin wants to unmute everyone at some point, they end up having to toggle twice!  Hence me suggesting the initial global mute option, unless it would be preferable to have a "smart" mute/unmute toggle that checks whether all the non-admins are individually muted already, and if so applies a global unmute rather than a global mute?
> If this gets approved, then if you could add/fix it in Asterisk 13 (i.e. not just the latest branch) that would be much appreciated!
