Hi Tran, is what your describing an either/or setup?

So the user either runs the Tandberg or Polycom or AccessGrid software?

Or do you have a setup where the user can run both the commercial video 
conferencing apps at the same time as the AG toolkit and share video/audio 
streams?

On some of our Windows video conferencing nodes (Piggy's, USB devices) we have 
AccessGrid & Polycom CMA desktop video conferencing clients. But we can't run 
AG and Polycom at the same time

We use the EVO bridge that Jason mentions to call H.323 endpoints into AG 
sessions.

   We use EVO, in which we use to not only bridge Access Grids with EVO 
clients, but allows us to connect to H.323 devices and SIP clients.

   Some information can be found at

   Subject: [AG-TECH] Sending audio/video/desktop from Access Grid PCs to 
traditional conferencing systems (Tandberg, Polycom)

   Hi All,

   We are testing 2 software from Polycom (Polycom PVX) and from Tandberg
   (ConferenceMe) that will allow us to connect existing Access Grid PCs to
   traditional video conferencing systems.  These software work on Windows
   platform and they allow us to join traditional video conference by
   connecting to a Tandberg or a Polycom bridge.  We install the software
   on our existing Access Grid computers and are able to send
   audio/video/desktop to the bridges.
   Both software only work with USB or DV cameras.  They do not work with
   video capture cards but we think that it is possible to convert S-Video
   or composite feed from our Sony EVI-D100 PTZ cameras to DV using the
   Canopus ADVC110.  More testing will be done and we will post the
   results.

   Thanks,
