[Freeswitch-users] Bridge to Conference and Outbound calling

[Richard Open Source]

Hi,
 I am interested in being able to convert a bridged call into a conference
and from within the conference, invite others into the conference.

>From http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Specsheet, it seems that mod_conference
delivers these out of the box (i.e Bridge to Conference trasition and
Outbound Calling).

However, I can't get it to work. Here is what I have so far:

1. From XLite, I dial out to an external number thru my Asterisk GW.
2. Set hangup_after_bridge to false as mentioned here
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_commands#uuid_transfer
3. When the caller (XLite) press *1, transfer both legs to a conference
room.
4. Can't make outbound calls from conference (yet).

Result:
1. The bridging works. But when I try to press *1 to transfer the call to a
conference, it does not work. The log I get is below. However, when I type
the command into the console

   freeswitch at dev-vpbx> uuid_transfer 95bd9744-8c27-4b4b-a785-b915d6640a0b
-both adhoc_conf

it works.

Outbound Calling:
I create a caller-controls group to be able to dial out based on intructions
here http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_conference (see caller-control
section).
However the, <control action="dial" digits="888" ... is not a recognized
control.

Any ideas on how I can proceed? Below is the relevant section in my
dialplan.

One more thing, what to these features mean from the Conferencing
application (http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Specsheet)? Can someone give a
scenario where these can be used?
1. Relationships
2. Transfers
3. Outbound Calling
4. Configurable Key Lay -- Is this the caller-controls?
5. Bridge to Conference trasition
6. Multi Party outbound dialing.

Thank you in advance.

Looking forward to playing around some more with FS. Thanks for the
wonderful software.
