We've previously used a three node setup with two linux machines handling audio and video capture, and a windows head node. That works entirely passably.
Now we've setup a single node Linux box to do it all, but have a query about the behaviour of vic. Previously all video both sent and received was displayed in vic on the display node, which was nice. Now we're running everything on one it's not so nice, as you end up with three producers each showing their muted output, and one consumer which shows none of the transmitted streams. What's the trick to seeing all 3 outputted streams in a single vic? Obviously I don't mind running 3 (or 4) vics as I am now, but I'd like it so that 1 of them would contain all of the interesting video while the others could be minimised. jh -- "I think it is well also for the man in the street to realise that there is no power on earth that will protect him from being bombed.
