Gavin:

It doesn't appear that you can do this by simply changing an option via 
the meetme command. If you are comfortable enough with c code, you can 
change the following line in app_meetme.c (it is line number 2247 in my 
copy) and then rebuild Asterisk:


snprintf(recordingtmp, sizeof(recordingtmp), "meetme-conf-rec-%s-%s", 
conf->confno, chan->uniqueid);

change to 

snprintf(recordingtmp, sizeof(recordingtmp), 
"%s/meetme/meetme-conf-rec-%s-%s", ast_config_AST_SPOOL_DIR, 
conf->confno, chan->uniqueid);


I just tested and this does work on my system.
