VLC Player - Video conferencing plug-in

RJ-87 · 24 Oct 2008 at 13:20

I've just stumbled upon this great plug-in and the sound quality and video quality are much better than others I've used, has anyone else used it?

It does however seem to have about a 5 second delay from when my webcam picks up the data to it being detected by the other users of the video conference. Anyone know a way around this?

Haven't heard of this plugin. Where did you get it from? Can't see it on the VLC site.

Hmm interesting little project.

All I can suggest is got the right ports etc open? Probably not the answer tbh.

Check out http://www.vlvc.net/en-faq.html and post on the forums. They'll know more about it than us in all likelihood.

for anyone who is interested, the answer is - it's a configuration problem, and there's a user guide on the website which will tell you how to configure it correctly. There is still a second or second and half delay, but atleast this is an improvement!
