[Freeswitch-users] serious problem in record_session

Two items, one for John, and one for the community:
1. Did you (John) ever get this working?
2. There has been discussion that if the calls are g729, that 2*n licenses
are required (where n is the number of legs on a conference call). Would it
be possible, and legal, to use an implementation such as this to create an
extension that gets recorded such that the number of licenses required to
record a conference call would be n+1, rather than n*2?
Thank you,
Rob Morin

Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] serious problem in record_session
OK, I had the following problems executing your idea -- I am sure its
because I don't know what I am doing, but only way to learn! When I did the
bind_meta_app to the start_recording_extension it worked after a fashioni.e.
it started a new file, but kept the old one going. Now what I tried after
that was I figured if I could execute record_session with the same file name
again it would close the file and all things would be good. In order to do
this, I tried to set a variable to false record_in_progress and execute an
extension in that one which would set it to true and if I hit the key again
the variable would be true and then it would close the file. However what I
ran into was that from the extension called stop_recording where I have a
condition for the variable to be true, and an anti-application to set it to
true if it were false the set takes place, but the variable never actually
gets set. I see the set, but if I log the variable its still false. So
what am I doing wrong here?
Here are the two extensions I wrote:
<extension name="start_recording">
<condition field="destination_number" expression="^start_recording$">
<action application="execute_extension" data="stop_recording"/> <action
application="set"
data="record_fn=$${recordings_dir}/${caller_id_number}.${real_destination_nu
mber}.${strftime(%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S)}.wav"
/>
<action application="record_session" data="${record_fn}"/> </condition>
</extension> <extension name="stop_recording"> <condition
field="destination_number" expression="^stop_recording$" /> <condition
field="record_in_progress" expression="^true$"> <action
application="record_session" data="${record_fn}"/> <action application="set"
data="record_in_progress=false"/> <anti-action application="set"
data="record_in_progress=true"/> </condition> </extension> with a
meta_bind_app bound to start_recording.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is:
How do
you spend it?
