There is more than one way to do it, but there seems to be only one
standards compliant way with common support in modern technology. WebRTC.
There is more than one server available, but the client only needs a web
browser. Even phones support it. You will however need to setup SSL on the
server for it to work with Chrome.

Years ago I used netmeeting. It actually uses an open protocol. Linux free
software has been maintained, but net meeting was abandoned by Microsoft,
and only paid apps were maintained.

I've also just launched two instances of VLC. One to send video, and one to
receive. Not convenient to use, but VLC is available on many platforms and
works in a pinch.
