More than that, they have no capacity to use any AGI script at all. If they try to, they get no audio. > ZAP channels **May Conference** and because of the driver design, **May Pass > DTMF** via an associated _AGI_BACKGROUND script-- I have no experience of actually trying to use AGI, but Zap channels can use an AGI script. > So I would guess, (please point me to docs, if any) that **EACH** true Zap > channel within a conference may be associated with **ITS OWN** > MEETME_AGI_BACKGROUND script-- which could monitor the DTMF on its > individual channel--??--.. Is this correct? It certainly looks from the app_meetme.c code that each Zap channel runs its own copy of the AGI script. > The MEETME_AGI_BACKGROUND script is NOT conference oriented BUT connection > (channel) oriented--??--??.. Looks like it. Note that using an AGI script loses other built-in functionality too, like mute/unmute, kick, and MOH while there is only one user. I can't see a reason why Zap and SIP channels couldn't use different extensions to get to the same MeetMe room with different flags and (for the Zap channels) different AGI scripts . > THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION here is to have a ZAP channel conference LEADER, > who would be able to launch "canned" audio presentations (of regional sales > data) into an existing conference, via a PHP AGI_BACKGROUND script using the > "GET DATA" or "STREAM FILE" AGI commands. > > If this sounds plausible, Im gonna fiddle with it today/week-end (Im on > NY-Time) I'd be interested to hear how you get on!
