It doesn't have the ability to segment users into sets of channels and play prompts specifically to them in a non-blocking fashion. Adding such logic would require a substantial re-architecting of ConfBridge - and given the scope of that work, such a feature would probably be best implemented as an external application built on top of ARI. -- Matthew Jordan Digium, Inc. | Engineering Manager 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev

Thanks for the reply. Currently this is expected behaviour. It would be better from a user perspective to hear a prompt on the language the user selected not that of the bridge. I set the variable in dialplan so maybe different for each international user who joins. If a German user joins before an English or Spanish user all users hear prompts for joiners and leavers in German. It would sound more professional if each user heard prompts in their own language. I the the overhead for this would be quite high depending on how many languages there are. Perhaps an additional setting to set a default language if multiple languages are requested would work rather than fixing it to the first joiner. This way we can default back to a more common language of English.

Prompts played to the bridge are heard by everyone in the bridge at the same time. Prompts played to a specific user would be in that users language and are heard by that user only.

[asterisk-dev] [r400723-400741] ConfBridge now has the ability to set the language of announcements
Good afternoon. Thanks for adding this feature. I have been testing it today and notice some unexpected behaviour.When multiple users call in and set different languages they will only hear the language set by the first caller to join the conference.Is this the expected and desired behaviour?I would have expected the desired result would be for each caller who sets their own language to hear the prompts they selected not the language of the first caller.Below is are a copy of the relating release notesMany thanks 2013-10-08 20:14 + [r400723-400741] Richard Mudgett * UPGRADE.txt, apps/app_confbridge.c, apps/confbridge/conf_config_parser.c, configs/confbridge.conf.sample, apps/confbridge/include/confbridge.h: app_confbridge: Can now set the language used for announcements to the conference. ConfBridge now has the ability to set the language of announcements to the conference. The language can be set on a bridge profile in confbridge.conf or by the dialplan function CONFBRIDGE(bridge,language)=en. (closes issue ASTERISK-19983) Reported by: Jonathan White Patches: M19983_rev2.diff (license #5138) patch uploaded by junky (modified) Tested by: rmudgett * apps/confbridge/conf_config_parser.c: app_confbridge: Fix duplicate default_user profile. * Fixed looking in the wrong profiles container to see if the default_user profile is already created in verify_default_profiles(). The bridge profile container is never going to hold user profiles. :) --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
