[Freeswitch-users] Loopback and bypass_media

[Rupa Schomaker]

perhaps we need to add some syntax + logic to originate:

application="originate"
data="(sofia/foo/bar|sofia/baz/bar),(sofia/foo/yum|sofia/baz/yum)"

This would acomplish the equiv of

loopback/bar,loopback/yum  where bar and yum are then further expanded
in the dialplan as

sofia/foo/bar|sofia/baz/bar and sofia/foo/yum|sofia/baz/yum

except that the threads of execution are handled directly by
originate.  I'm not sure that is really the "solution" since each ()
group would still have to be a separate thread to run independently.

To me, loopback is the way to accomplish this issue (how I've done it
with the same requirements that you have) since all the hard work is
layered and works.  The problem is that you require bypass_media which
doesn't play nice with loopback.

Perhaps have an on answer hook that tries to enable bypass media
(re-invite) after the call is setup?
