Hello.  Has anyone tried to have a conference automatically dial out to a distant end when the first user joins a conference?

I found this link below while digging for mod_conf stuff in Freeswitch, but I don't know if this would be safe to do with SipXcom which creates it's own conference scripting.


Thanks,

keith

The sipX conference has an invite participant function:

Hi.  Yes, and we are using that now, but that is not automatic.  Ideally we'd like people to join a conference that is setup to automatically start when someone dials in, and once it starts it also automatically calls out to a pre-defined number.

Hope that makes (more) sense.

OK, understand what you mean now. So it looks like something that is very doable by manipulating freeswitch config parameters, but would undoubtedly require a sipXconference software change to be seamlessly administrated from the sipX web UI.

Note for the upcoming RL9 v25.01 we are upgrading Freeswitch to version 1.10.12, which is consistent with your documentation there, and makes such changes more straightforward.

That sounds promising.  What is the process by which the community ask the development team for a feature addition or change?

Thanks,

Hi Keith,

You can create new feature requests here: https://github.com/onrelay/sipxecs/issues. Alternatively it is also possible to submit a pull request at  GitHub if you have actually done the source code work yourself.

We have recently entered a number of support contracts for sipXecs now, and in thse we normally include a provision that we can commit to deliver new feature requests in the standard open source platform on a discounted / shared cost professional services basis.

This will normally require that we think the new feature request makes sense from a product perspective. I guess the jury will be out as to whether our time is best spent enhancing the sipXecs conferencing facility, since most companies nowadays use specialized online conferencing solutions such as Google Meet, MS Teams and Zoom. So we are perhaps better served integrating closely with those.

In any case, at the moment all our sipXecs R&D is 100% focused on getting the 25.01 release for Rocky Linux out. We are getting there, but it has been quite a beast to get all dependencies upgraded and refactored to latest versions, especially on the java side of things, which again will greatly simplify the above mentioned integration work.
