[Freeswitch-users] One to many w/o mod_conference

[Tom Hartnett]

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but so you mind if I ask why? The info I could
discern (which may or may not be accurate) was that eavesdropping uses a
simple RTP copy mechanism, while conferencing would involve converting all
audio back and forth to PCM for each user (as well as jitter buffers and
other overhead for each participant). Is there something I'm missing?
