[Freeswitch-users] How to play multiple video files (not video calls) in a conference

[Saumar Hajjar]

Hi,

I'm working in a PoC and I'm considering FS.

I'd like to create a conference and have several video files playing 
simultaneously in the canvas.
I already tried: conference name play av:///var/www/vid/video.mp4 and it 
works great.
But I need multiple files playing and apparently the above command 
queues a video file (or freezes if it's a rtsp stream... Later I'll 
confirm this and file a Jira)

I also tried creating a loopback leg, joining the conference, and 
playing a video just to this particular member. But it fails because the 
member doesn't support video.

Basically I'd like to do something like the examples found at the bottom 
of 
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/FreeSWITCH+1.6+Video.
Probably I'm missing some trivial stuff... I really appreciate any 
advice on this.

Thanks in advance,

Saumar
