Re: [Hardhats-members] Frustrated in Crete :)

I've never tried it, though, with a large number of people in the conference.  We have only used ours for viewing our grandson <grin> and so it was one-on-one video.  Even from that, you will see that the video is quite choppy unless you turn on the super mode (requires opening a port in the firewall).  With the super mode on, you can get at best 5-6 fps with a 256kbps uplink.  I doubt there would be enough clarity to view presentations. Far better, would be having the presenter's PC sharing their application with something like LiveMeeting or similar service.  Surely there is something in the opensource world that gives features like Webex or LiveMeeting.

I'd never heard of it before, but the website paints a pick of a very useful service. http://www.goteamspeak.com/news.php Joseph Dal Molin wrote: Hi Mano, I will be delighted to vet your presentation and even contribute some of my slides from the ever evolving set that I have been working with. There will be video recording at the conference....unlikely that we will broadcast video...but Nancy is cooking up something with TeamSpeak...so you will be able to hear it at least. Stay tuned for Marty Johnson's talk on the origins of VistA the "Underground Railroad" it is truly an incredible story told by a wonderful story teller and charter member of the group that gave birth to VistA.

(everlasting gratitude)... to getting a clinic working. Hah... you say... well... um... you are right. Oh well... Is there anyway... someone with a camcorder could broadcast the meeting.... maybe save it somewhere online? On an unrelated note... I made a presentation for Vista... I was wondering if anyone was interested in vetting it. I also, plan on putting it somewhere online.
