[Freeswitch-users] Start Conference with first user

[Mitja Thomas]

Hi Michael,

what you suggest is exactly what I was trying to do. Actually it does 
work: I can join with a couple of non_moderators and get the enter_sound 
as soon as the second one joins. when the moderator joins the 
enter_sound is turned off.

But my initial Problem remains. When just one participant joins there is 
no enter_sound because the conference did not start yet. So if someone 
joins he waits and waits and all of a sudden (when the second one joins) 
the sound gets played. So what I was looking for was a way to start the 
conference, when the first participant joins.

I managed to get the sound working the way I want. Ignoring the 
enter_sound and just playing the sound from dialplan after checking if a 
moderator is present in the given conference room.

Still I think that the other way might be interessting not just for me.

Thanks for your time MC, answering every stupid question the list spits 
out :)
