Video Calls and ConfBridge performance??

Postby lvish » Sat Nov 26, 2016 3:39 am

Hi

We have switched to ConfBridge application since Meetme doesnt support video. Video and audio is working fine with out any issues with below configuration during the testing.

Has anybody used ConfBridge application in production ? What issues can be expected with ConfBridge application? any feedback for this setup is highly appreciated..

Extensions.conf

exten => _86000[5-9]X,1,ConfBridge(${EXTEN})
exten => _86000[5-9]X,n,Hangup()

exten => _86000[1-2]XX,1,ConfBridge(${EXTEN})
exten => _86000[1-2]XX,n,Hangup()

We haven't done any testing with ConfBridge in years, but when we did, we had issues with choppy audio and recordings on high-load systems due to ConfBridge's inability to tie itself to a hardware timer. Although, I have heard that there is now an option to do that with ConfBridge.

Other than that, the configuration of ConfBridge's options are completely different from MeetMe, you have to create "bridge profiles" within the confbridge.conf file to do things that MeetMe just had simple flags for. So, a configuration as you have shown would not have all of the typical VICIdial feature working, like the ability to monitor agents, record phone calls, insert pre-recorded audio and a few others.

I'm sure we will eventually move to ConfBridge, since they are starting to make MeetMe an optional module, but it will take some work to get all of the features working properly with it.

Hi mflorell,

Thanks for the response,
Yes, dialplan have used only for basic calling.
Will try changing all Meetme instance to ConfBridge() in extension.conf and test the required functions like monitor, barge,whisper and call recording.
If these things work we can try to put some load and test.



thanks
