Greetings Does anyone have the NV-qcam - CuSeeMe conferencing working with the BSDI Reflector ? Accordingly, I am supposed to use multicast for Reflector and the NV-qcam but I still don't see any video. Maybe I did something fundamentally wrong. I have the nv-qcam and the reflector in a FreeBSD machine and try to conference with a Win95 running CuSeeMe over the Net. Accordingly, nv-qcam is not ready for point to point CuSeeMe type of conferencing but with the reflector, I should be able to fake it. Maybe I am wrong. Thank you for your help. Francis p.s. I can't use vic because it is not CuSeeME compatible. > From root@fyeung25.netific.com Mon May 12 12:18 PDT 1997 > Date: Mon, 12 May 1997 09:45:35 -0700 (PDT) > From: Doug White <dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu> > X-Sender: dwhite@localhost > To: Jakob Alvermark <jakob@teligent.se> > Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: Vic and Quickcam > Mime-Version: 1.0 > X-Loop: FreeBSD.org > > On Mon, 12 May 1997, Jakob Alvermark wrote: > > > Ok, I see..
