[asterisk-users] Dialout from Meetme conference

[shrikant.soni at globussoft.com]

I am implementing one dialer type of application.

In which i am first dialing one source number and sending it to 
conference and then starting dialing the different destination numbers.

i have used meetme application of asterisk for this as i dont want to 
disconnect the main source number.

Both numbers are being originated using AMI and in the context i have 
used MeetMe with the specified room.
So, as soon as they got answered, they are being sent into the 
conference and they can hear each other and talk.

Everything goes fine with the above mentioned settings.

But, what i am trying to achieve is, I want to dial the other number 
from the meetme, so the source number can also hear the ringing sound of 
the other phone. So, the call must be originated from conference and get 
into conference as soon as the channel is originated.

For this i have used channel redirect function of phpagi-asmanager.php 
to send the dialing channel of destination number to conference. By 
doing this i can hear the ring sound, but when the call is being 
answered, the first user of conference is not able to hear the voice of 
second user.

I checked the asterisk CLI and debug the issue, And i found that the 
channel which we sent into conference without answer is having state 
"Down". Can this be the issue of voice ?

Sometime during the test i get it working but on the next test it fails. 
So i think this might be a bug in the asterisk source code

Please suggest any method or patch to overcome this

Thanks
