In theory, if you use multicast, yes. In practice, I have no idea, I've never tested over 10 participants. But my guess is that, if you have a large conference, you don't really want a conference, what you really want is to broadcast, in that case, something like RTSP is most likely more appropriate. Otherwise the whole thing will become a cacophony. > Is farsight multicast / ipv6 ready ? There is a fully functional multicast transmitter. I have not tested with IPv6 and I believe there may be some details that need fixing for IPv6 to work. I don't think its anything major and I'd gladly accept patches. My knowledge of IPv6 is very limited because not a single commercial ISP offers IPv6 in my country. > and is h264 support on the todo list or implemented ? H.264 support is fully supported since 0.0.3 -- Olivier Crête [EMAIL PROTECTED] Collabora Ltd
