I’ll chime in here as well – Tony setup a BBB today and I ‘dialed in’.

The audio portion thru BBB was crappy (didn’t sync with the video – poor 
quality) – so then I called Tony directly (replace this with used sipxecs as 
the conference bridge) – at this point, I was loving it.  The audio and video 
were actually in sync (even though they were thru two totally different 
applications).

Having BBB installed and using sipxecs for the audio portion is a solution I’m 
planning on using now – connect via the browser for video/sharing presentations 
and have them dial into a sipxecs for audio – I was quity pleased once we took 
audio out of BBB’s hands.

As a side note – my android phone was able to connect to the web interface (it 
has flash player 10.1) and I could see the video on my cell phone via 3g as 
well (I wouldn’t say it was the smoothest interface – but it worked).

Martin,

BigBlueButton sounds quite interesting, especially with the Free Switch 
conferencing integration already available.

If we can get an instruction set on how to substitute it for Dimdim (4.2.1), 
that would help.

I haven’t seen where anyone has suggested an alternative to try, never mind 
better.

The reviews on Dimdim’s “open source” version are pretty bad. Nothing new from 
the sponsor since 2008. Seems OS participants felt abandoned a long time ago.
In comparison BigBlueButton’s most recent release is Nov 9, 2010. So progress 
seems to be current and active.

Don

What would you think about a closer cooperation with 
http://www.bigbluebutton.org/?  Very similar to what DimDim does, open source 
and can work with FreeSWITCH 
(http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/InstallationUbuntu#2._Install_a_Voice_Conference_Server).

If anyone would like to give it a try, we would be happy to help.
