Hello. We have a Polycom HDX 6000 Videoconferencing system in one of
our conference rooms. We would like to enable individual users to
connect to this system for videoconferencing purposes from their
webcam enabled PCs. Will Ekiga work for this? If so, can someone
tell me how? I installed ekiga and attempted to dial our polycom
system but the software seems to want to connect to only other
ekiga.net users.
Thanks,
Bill
Hi Bill,
SIP or H323? I have access to a Polycom VSX-8400 and H323 calls to it
*sort* of worked - I got garbled/frozen video at the time I tested it
(with Ekiga running on a netbook) and haven't had the time since to look
into it further, but setting up calls etc. seemed to work.
I haven't tested SIP with the Polycom, but have with a Sony PCS-XG80 -
again I ran into what looked like a video codec issue between it and
Ekiga, but calling seemed to otherwise work okay; one does however have
to set a SIP address in the Sony using the web admin interface. I used a
Ekiga.net address in this case but I can't think off the top of my head
why a SIP address from another free provider wouldn't also work.
I am keen to get some hardware-based systems added to the Ekiga Wiki so
if we can nut this out it would be great.
Cheers,
Dave
