Re: video calls
 

I have just tried using my PC (XP) Sightspeed to the N800 Sightspeed account and blow me but it worked perfectly, but for the terrible N800 webcam video quality :)

I also tried using OS X Tiger on the iMac but the result was no better than OS X Leopard.

Re: video calls
 

regarding n800 video conferencing,

would n't it be nice if all users of this forum decide to edit their forum account details with their gtalk account?

before n8x0 to PC video calling gets easier, we could video call each other.

anyway if anybody wants to test n8x0 to n8x0 video call you can video call mi at

antoniocontent@gmail.com

see ya,

Re: video calls
 

Does anyone know why the video call quality is so bad (mine has a lot of artifacts on the receiving party's client)

Re: video calls
 

Actually I tried Linphone in Ubuntu. I use Eyebeam under XP/Vista. I'm both cases I'm connecting through an Asterisk server I use for VOIP/video. If your trying to do SIP video through a SIP server/proxy, then it does need to support h.263/h.263+ video also.

cintra: Wtf?!! You're teasing me, right? I'm using xp too... could you maybe post screen captures of your settings (replaced with fake user names)?

Re: video calls
 

I sent you a private message (2) about the screenshots, in case you've missed them

Edit: I booted up the PC again to try something else, and the Sightspeed results right now are the same as the iMac's.. i.e. NOT a clear picture on the N800 from the PC :(

Re: video calls
 

Thanks cintra,

I think there's actually something wrong with one of my SightSpeed accounts - it doesn't authenticate properly - when I used a different account, I was able to log in straight away.

Anyway, I've also come to the conclusion that this is not going to work. Like you said earlier, SightSpeed to N800 calls *kind* of work, but no video on N800 (if you're lucky, you sometimes get a frame once in a blue moon ;). N800 to SightSpeed calls never connect. :~(

Gizmo's craptacular video it is then, *sigh*. I wish Skype would get their act together. :(

Re: video calls
 

Haha! I was messing with the Internet Connection settings in SightSpeed and set it to the highest setting (T1 or higher) - and I got crystal clear video & audio! But, like you, only once! I can't repeat it. :(

So somehow it *is* possible... there's more settings under "Advanced", will play around and see if I can reproduce the result.
