I have to ask, since recording was mentioned :>, why it would be important for you to record just your own video streams? If you want to record whole meetings, I'd direct your attention to AGVCR (yes, a plug for my own project... who'd have thought it?) since it's designed to record AccessGrid meetings. Of course, you can do both, I just wondered out of curiosity what your reasons for wanting a copy video out were. http://iri.informatics.indiana.edu/~dcpiper/agvcr/
