[Asterisk-Users] 5 way calling?

[Kris Edwards]

As far as quality of meetme, that depends a lot on your setup.  I've
had 2 zaps and 3 sips and the quality was perfect.  So if you're
talking about 5 people all on zap channels, I think you'll be
satisfied.  If you're not, there are a couple of third party apps on
the wiki you could try.

(for the record, I've never had a meetme conference in which there
were four users on two zap channels 3 wayed, but I suppose * wouldn't
really care about the 3 way part of things... just dump them into the
same room and everyone should be able to talk.  (The only thing I can
think of is that the users 3-wayed would not be able to use dtmfs to
control themselves, but rather they would control both users on that
channel.. so, you couldn't have an admin and a user on the same zap
channel, or you couldn't mute just one of the two since * would see
them as the same person))
