VOIP + Integrated Audio Conferencing + Connect 8

Hello -
These forums have been a valuable resource for my individual troubleshooting in Adobe products, and I thank the contributors.
Currently I am having an issue that I am unable to resolve on my own, nor find any postings covering simlar topics through search.
Core Question:   Can one create a room in Adobe Connect 8 that does all of the following?:
Allows virtual attendees to connect through VOIP
Allows virtual attendees to connect by selecting to have the integrated conference line call them (where they must enter their phone number), where that attendee can be muted individually, their audio status is displayed by their username etc.
Allows (and provides directin for) the attendees to dial into the conference line
Specs: 
Currently Adobe Connect 8 (Service Pack 1)
PGi Conferencing Service
Adobe product support through Clarix
Background:
For our implementation(s), we need to broadcast many different event types and offerings to a virtual audience in which presenters/instructors and participants can share two way verbal communication with one another.  As the host, I must command control of the audio at an individual level using an integrated conferencing service (we use PGi).  VOiP users are already controlled at the individual level.  We must provide the easiest and most flexible access to the Adobe Connect room for our virtual attendees, so that they can click a link and sign on as a guest and then choose whether or not they wish to use VOIP, dial into the conference line from their phone, or ask the Adobe Connect room to dial out to their phone.
We have successfully delivered conferences in the format that I describe using an Adobe Connect-based product, which I presume to be built on a previous version of Adobe Connect.  This version had the little yellow 'dial out' phone button.  Let me add that I am aware of and understand what Universal Voice is and how it works, and that Universal Voice will not meet our needs.  The latest and greatest Adobe Connect 8 Help PDF had this to say on page 126 about using VOiP and Conference together:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/connect/8.0/using/connect_8_help.pdf
     Note:  If Universal Voice is configured, you can select both options.  Participants can join the audio conference either using their computer's   
               microphones, or join the meeting using their phone. Start broadcasting to to enable participants to hear any telephone-based audio through the
               computer speakers and broadcast their voices to telephone users using the microphone. When you stop broadcasting, VoIP users will be audible
               to phone users, but phone users will not be audible to the meeting users. 
Anybody with insight please reply, and I thank you in advance.
Warm Regards,
:Otto:

Otto,
I'm baffled by this. Connect 8 does all what you desire with Universal Voice and PGi. I do all what you desire today. Connect 8 SP1 which is being rolled out changed the menu choices to make the options really clear. They were not clear in Connect 8 and many people got confused including me!
What is it about UV and the integrated PGI adaptor that does not work for you?  Best to take this off-line I think as we will need to discuss.

  • Has anybody integrated Shoretel conferencing with Adobe Connect?

    Has anyone integrated ShoreTel audio conferencing with Adobe Connect? If so, I would love some tips on how to do it.

    James, I'm interested in this topic as well! I am not an IT person, just a user. I have Tech Support who are dealing with this. We have integrated our Shortel system 99.9% with Connect, but for some reason we can't get the DTMF to send properly. Very frustrating! Adobe has provided some assistance. Adobe wanted the SIP information (SIP IP adddress, username and password) which we set up; but my IT folks needed the correct ports that Connect wanted. This is what they sent me:
    Below are the ports you
    need to open to make FMG talk to your SIP server:
    2222 - HTTP
    8506 - RTMP
    Flash Media Gateway to Internet   SRC-IP=<Server-IP>,
    SRC-PORT=5060, DST-IP=ANY, DST-PORT=5060
    Internet to Flash Media Gateway   SRC-IP=ANY, SRC-PORT=5060, DST-IP=<(>
    <<)>Server-IP>, DST-PORT=5060
    Flash Media Gateway to Internet   SRC-IP=<Server-IP>,

    Internet to Flash Media Gateway   SRC-IP=ANY, SRC-PORT=ANY_HIGH_END,

  • Audio conferencing

    I am in Skype when I go to WebEx to create a meeting and get participates added. There is an option for me to set up my Audio Conferencing using either my phone or my computer. Computer works fine. And my cell phone works fine. But when I try to use my Skype number, it always fails to connect. Is that because my Skype number is busy because I am on it already?

    Hello,
    Please, if anyone has any hint on this I would really appreciate. I have managed to do part of the audio conferencing, but, all I hear is garbage sound.
    It�s not really garbage, it�s the sound received, but impossible to hear correctly.
    The reason for this is that when I transmit RTP packets, I have a loos rate of 66%, which of course, causes the audio being sent to be unhearable. But I can remotely distinguish different sounds of different words, but of course, reconstruction of a speech with a loss rate of 66% is impossible.
    I know that jmf has the limitation of getting a loss rate when transmitting of 16 - 17 %, but that is OK for understanding voice.
    Any hints on how to solve the problem of the 66 % loss rate?
    I read somewhere I cannot remember now that there�re tools for searching for busy waitings in programs and so on. Can you suggest me something to fix the problem?
    Thanks and bye.

  • Does iOS 8 FaceTime have audio conferencing or not?

    In my searches on the internet for the audio conferencing feature in FaceTime, I find unofficial claims that it was to be included in iOS 8. And I see a button in the FaceTime interface to merge calls. But I have not found any explicit instructions on how to use this feature if it is in fact available. Is it? If so, what is the procedure to  make us of it?

    Same problem. I have tried to test FaceTime audio conferencing with two other patient iPhone 6 users (brother and sister) without success in the following steps.
    1. We each turned off cell data and insured we had strong wifi.
    2. I connected to one party and waited until the + icon appeared to dial in the second.
    3. After connecting to the second party, the swap icon (horizontal S) was available so I could switch back and forth between parties, but the Merge icon (inverted Y) would not activate to bring all three of us together.
    Has anyone had success with a three way conference call using FaceTime audio?

  • IChat 4.0.2: audio conferencing not working

    First of all, this question regard iChat 4, not "iChat AV 3" as the forum might suggest. It seems that Apple as of yet hasn't yet created a proper forum for iChat 4.
    I'm using 4.0.2 on 2 machines. Machine A has been set up 2 weeks ago, machine B yesterday, no settings changed whatsoever. Problem: Audio conferencing doesn't work. Everything else (ping, webbrowsing, email, ichat text, ftp, sftp, ssh, skype) works perfectly fine. Both machines were connected directly to the cable modem.
    What I've tried out so far:
    - repeated login/logouts
    - restarting the machine
    - setting qt stream speed to 1,5 mbit and ichat speed to 500 kbit, as somebody suggested
    - set firewall from "all" to "only certain programs" and added iChat, as somebody suggested
    - changed server port to 443, as somebody suggested
    - tried conferencing with the test accounts appleu3test01/02/03
    - created a new user on the same machine, used it
    - used the other machine which was basically out of the box
    - inquired at the cable company whether they filter anything, they don't.
    - submitted half a dozen error reports to Apple.
    I'm close to start being a teeny weeny bit annoyed soon...
    Has anybody got other stuff that I might try out?
    Thanks

    I have been having no video or audio conferencing problem using iChat 4.0.2 as have 5 of my friends. Further two of us tried to access the Apple tests sites with no success, the same connection error problem.
    I called AppleCare today and the problem remained with every test situation. AppleCare sent a Support Document, which is aimed at OS X 10.4, and was not useful.
    While looking around I may have found some helpful information. I had "Internet Sharing" on so that I am sharing Airport to Ethernet. When I turned that off Walla!! iChat with two different Apple Test Sites worked.
    Of interest is that iChat worked between two MacBook Pro's on the same Airport Extreme and between a MacBook Pro and Intel iMac using a Ethernet to Airport Internet Sharing configuration.
    I hope this is useful information for those who are frustrated.

  • 2009 24-inch iMac 3.06GHz (EMC no. 2267).   I don't get any audio when connecting my Sony HD TV to my iMac via mini DisplayPort. Is there a fix or hardware upgrade?  I'm using a Kanex Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable w/ audio support.

    You can connect the audio from your iMac to your TV using a mini jack (like headphones plug) to rca (regular red and white audio connectors used on every TV,DVD, etc) cable.
    On your TV, you need to be able to set the audio for the HDMI input you will use to "analog" and connect the rca end of the cable to the analog inputs on your TV.

    Hello, I have a sql 2005 server, and I am a developer, with the database on my own machine.  It alwayws works for me but after some minutes the other developer cant work in the application
    He got this error
    Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    and When I see the log event after that error, it comes with another error.
    SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
    He has IIS5 and me too.
    I created a user on the domain called ASPSYS with password, then in the IIS on anonymous authentication I put that user with that password, and it works, on both machines.
    and in the connection string I have.
    <add key="sqlconn" value="Data Source=ESTACION15;Initial Catalog=GescomDefinitiva;Integrated Security=SSPI; Trusted_Connection=true"/>
    I go to the profiler, and I see that when he browses a page, the database is accesed with user ASPSYS, but when I browse a page, the database is accesed with user SE\levalencia.
    Thats strange.
    The only way that the other developer can work again on the project is to restart the whole machine. He has windows xp profession, I have windows 2000.

    Well here's my problem, maybe you can help. Intermittenly I get a login failed when connecting to a db engine through Server Management Studio using Windows authentication. When this happens the following entries are generated on the server's application event log:

    Description:
    Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: <ip address>]
    I've already ensured that the server is set to mixed authentication mode. Oddly enough, the workaround that I've found is that if I remote desktop into the server, log in and then log back out, Management Studio is suddenly able to connect again. No idea why it works. 
    As I said before, it is intermitten. Some days it errors on login, other days it doesn't and there are no configuration changes between them. Also, both client and server are in the same domain and same site so there is no VPN or anything in between. I'm really quite stumped. Any help would be great, or if you can point me in the right direction of where to look. Thank you in advance!

  • Startup Chimes with audio cable connected?

    My Mini has started to sound it's healthy startup chime even when there is an audio cable connected to the audio/headphone output. The output works fine and sends audio to the speakers, but how can I mute the chime at startup?
    Previously it always muted that sound with a cable connected and I believe it started chiming when I updated to 10.5.4.
    TIA.

    The mini generates the startup chime via the internal speakers regardless of whether external speakers are connected or not - the necessary support for the hardware audio port isn't loaded until after the power-on self test (which is what generates the chime) so in common with the iMac range, the chime comes from the internal speakers.
    The only way to mute the chime at startup is to set the Sound preference pane to Mute (check the 'Mute' box in the Sound Effects tab). There are also some utilities such as Startup Sound (http://www5e.biglobe.ne.jp/~arcana/index.en.html) which variously succeed in muting the chime, though these tend to get broken with MacOS updates.

  • Problem in audio conferencing using Flex and FMS3.0

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to achieve audio conferencing using Flex and
    FMS3.0
    Currently I am following an approach where all the persons in
    voice conference publish their voice on flash media server using
    NetStream.Publish() function and all persons listen to the streams
    published by all other members in the conference using
    NetStream.Play() function. I am using a shared array on server side
    to keep track of all the persons present in the conference. The
    problem I am facing is that sometimes all the persons are able to
    hear the voice of each other but other times audio of some persons
    is not audible to others. Even if voice comes then there is echo
    and one can hear the sound 3-4 times depending on the amplitude of
    the sound. I have also used Microphone.setUseEchoSuppression(true)
    to suppress the echo but it is not effectively suppressing it. If
    someone has faced similar problems in past please let me know the
    solution. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Pankaj

  • MPX audio conferencing

    Hi all,
    My customer has a 2 nodes CM cluster and a MPX (also CUPS and CUPCs...)
    The point is that I'm trying to do audioconferences and the parties, located at differente sites, speak a mixture of G.711 and G.729.
    For this reason, CM CFB doesn't work.
    So I thought of using MPX to do the audioconferences.
    To be honest, I don't know much about MPX, I just tested videoconferencing and some web collaboration, and we usually configure conferencing resources into routers to overcome this sw conference limitation, but as I saw that the MPX could do audioconferences I thought it was worth it to give it a try.
    But it doesn't work. If all the parties speak G.711 it works fine, but as soon as one of the parties speak G.729 the conference drops.
    As I said, my knowledge regarding MPX is very limited (and my ability to find what I was looking for in the documentation too :-), but I saw that you could specify the number of ports reserved for G.711 sessions and for G.729 sessions (and I did it so), so I thought ithe MPX could do transcoding if necessary.
    Am I right? Should it work and I'm just misconfiguring the MPX?
    Or do I need to configure transcoding in routers anyway?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Carmen

    That's not correct, although I now understand you.
    Select Custom sync and choose not to transfer files.
    As I say I realise what you are saying, but it is your library database file that is synced, your music is streamed.
    It has worked in the past for me and it still works now, I can see all the albums on the Apple TV in 'My Music' only when I go to play a file: silence. Both on the television and on the stereo.
    Have you by any chance turned the volume down on the tv.
    And yes, there is a reason to disable sound output via HDMI, because there is no use to have two audio streams outputting at the same time.
    Sorry I don't follow your reasoning here. We don't use the DVD player in the car, I haven't considered disabling it though.

  • FME 3.0 Audio from Audio Conferencing Bridge issue

    All Hi
    I am having an issue pulling audio from an audio conferencing bridge and then streaming it out via Flash Media Encoder 2.5. When I take another source, such as music or pre recorded voice, it sounds fine, however as soon as I switch to the audio from the audio conferencing bridge, the resulting output via the website that I stream to sounds very poor. Not awful but not good. Obviously I understand that the audio isnt going to be as good as you would get from an MP3 or pre-recorded file but I dont think it should be this bad.
    Could it be something to do with my encoding settings.
    I am using Mp3, Mono, Sample Rate of 44100 ( which is high I know ) and a bit rate of 96kbps.
    I dont believe its my audio hybrid ( Sonifex HY-03 ) or my converter box ( stereo phono to firewire converter ) as all other audio going into FME is fine, its just this darned audio conferencing feed.
    Could my encoding settings be too high?
    Thanks in advance.

    To configure Osprey 440 you need to select exact Input in FMLE from this device.
    Osprey 440 has 1 audio slot and 4 composite Video slot.
    Starting from Audio cable, you have Video A, video B, video C and video D.
    Similarly on Audio breakout cable, you have right and left channels for each of the 4 inputs starting from left 1 right 1, left 2 right 2  and so on.
    In FMLE these device are listed as Osprey 440 Video device 1A, Osprey 440 Video device 1B and so on.
    You need to select exactly that input in both audio and video drop down list whom you are giving input in the card.
    Hope this helps.
