Hi Bert, DIPS, who provided the meeting venue and catering had to change the location a few days earlier to one outside of their offices, in a town called Lillestrom, near Oslo. So we were in a culture centre with its own wifi etc, not under DIPS control, and the best we could manage collectively was using their office Lync from one of their computers. We also had no real control over mics and sound. We didn't do Skype because we wanted video as well.
In the future we will need to use something that works universally, and be more prepared. Two suggestions I had from people were: Roger Erens: Ericom Cloud Internet Explorer for Chrome could be of use on Mac or Linux. Jussara: vydio app I don't know much about this technology, so if someone has a proposal for the next meeting, let us know. My preference for how it should work is how HL7 Brazil does its online courses - they use some Adobe platform, and broadcast is voice + slides and/or webcam, moderators have voice and video, and the main audience asks questions and comments via a chat panel. It's all integrated. This costs money obviously, but functionally I think it's very good. Anyway, we're doing our best to get all the outcomes documented, and we may yet get the recorded files up online. - thomas On 17/09/2014 00:20, Bert Verhees wrote: > It didn't work on Linux, though the opening screen was confusing.
