I think the ability to have multiple callers waiting on a single call code to be connected would be sweet feature for live shows.

I think the feature would work like this "maybe"-
- Anyone can call the vmixcall number
- You are added to a "call-waiting" que
- the que is listed in a vmix panel so you can see who is on
- Then all you need to do is select the name you want to connect with and click a "connect" button
- Vmix will then complete the connection with that specific caller.



The vmixcall website would hold the list and this way you can minimize bandwidth needs to only the call you are connected with.

I like the concept, not sure how easy it would be to implement though...
A feature like this would be very handy for call-in shows or for something like Tess & Paul are doing (trying) on the "PTZOptics Live Show" where they issue the number in the chat for an "instant audience guest" segment of their show (although it hasn't worked yet and they may be under the wrong impression on how it works if multiple people call the same number, which as I understand it, each subsequent caller would disrupt the current call).
