hi Gurcharan, John Firstly appreciated your help both , I think now the problem has taken another curve , i mean i've downgraded AccessGrid version from 3.2-Beta to AccessGrid 3.1 stable release ( also using the easyinstaller package) , and as i previously did , i've configured AccessGrid on the sender Pc to use the ExtendedVideoProducerService and again i can see my video signal fine without any problem
Now at the receiver Pc , I've configured it to use the ExtendedVideoConsumerService and now it pops up the DVTS screen and I can see the stream sent by my sender pc , and did as Gurcharan said , that I clicked on each of those text lines and the DVTS window was brought up with the following problem within it : http://muhammad.akl.googlepages.com/19072009367.jpg As you can see the video is corrupted and is not clear , what can cause this problem ? my AccessGrid Server url is https://ag0.mans.edu.eg<https://ag0.mans.edu.eg/> Our Bridge Name : Mansoura University Regards Muhammad On Sun, Jul 19, 2009 at 2:08 AM, John I.

Confirm you have multicast working... It’s not clear from you on the display (receiver) machine if DVTS is starting, if you’re getting errors, etc. Is it starting but not showing anything? Can you confirm the multicast addresses involved? Are you getting “video” but it’s black for example? Thanks, John Q. -- John I.
