2 X person video chat for Intel Qs

Hey I know the specs required for doing a multi person (eg, more than 2 people) video chat for PowerPC processors, however I was wondering what the spec requirements are for the Intel ones... I am primarily directing this towards the Mac Mini Solo v. Duo which I am assuiming the Solo could be the only one that might have limitations (like my poor powerbook...).
SO my question is can a Mac Mini Solo HOST a multi person video chat OR is it like my powerbook and other "slower" apples that can only join multi chats yet cannot host them? AND if the Solo cannot HOST a multi person video chat CAN it at least JOIN a multi person video chat?
AND finally JUST to make sure there are no compatabilities problems, can a intel based apple multi-video chat with a powerpc apple?
Thank you,
TM

Hi T.M.,
Go to System Preferences and then Quicktime.
Select the Streaming tab.
In the drop down se the speed to match your download speed.
If it faster than 1.5meg then use 1.5 meg.

Multi-person video chat

Yesterday I was able to use the multi-person video chat on iChat. Today I can't. I have no idea why. My friend also has multi-person video chat capabilities but today her video chat icon is a single-person one. Is this just a problem with my iChat? Or is everyone having it? How can I fix it?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

iChat since iChat 2.0 AV has always read the "Automatic" setting in Quicktime System Preferences as a zero (0).
It has been mentioned for a long time and in several places that it should be set to something that sees the setting as a high enough number.
See this FAQ rewritten for the current Discussion format in November 2005. There was an earlier version.

Multi person video chats

Is it possible to do a multi person video chat with a G4? I'm running a 1.6GHz PowerPC G4 with 896Mb of RAM. Thanks.

you should be able to participate in one, but not host (meaning initiate) one. i have a powerbook G4, and when i have a three way chat with my mom and brother, either my mom (intel mac mini) or my brother (imac G5) has to initiate the chat from the start.... i can initiate a two way video chat no problem, but if a third person is invited after i initiate the chat, it wont work because my computer is the central hub and isnt fast enough to juggle all them info packets....

"computer can not initiate a multi-person video chat" ?

2 of us have MacBook Pros, third guy has new MacBook.
Our MacBook's have OS X 10.5.8,
The new MacBook has OS 10.6.1.
Me and the other person can iChat with 3 other ppl,
but when we added the new guy as a buddy, neither one of us could get him to come up.
He said When the call came in, two (2) video screens popped up and if he hit accept on
either one, it would decline on our end. (this happened no matter which MacBook Pro initiated the convo)
We then had the MacBook try to initiate the 3 way and it came up with an error that said
"computer can not initiate a multi-person video chat"
I've never even heard of that.
Is this a glitch, or a setting that needs to be changed?
Seems weird that the older models do it fine, but the new one is not configured right, but maybe we're missing something.
thx

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
You are saying that, no matter who Hosts, when they invite the 10.6.1 Buddy he gets two Invite windows ?
This sounds like he is connected to the Internet twice.
On Sending the Visible Invite iChat does not check the validity of the Return Message.
You can be logged in twice for Text Chatting so it is not an uncommon state to exist.
However in most cases this is either two apps or two computers.
When iChat gets past the Visible Invite stage as only one reply get returned for the Acceptance it moves into sending a SIP invite separately on a different port and part of this Process is to confirm where the Visible Invite went to is where the SIP return data is coming from.
If there are two connections to the Internet at his end (and there are several causes) you will get an Error 7 showing when the Video chat is ended by all parties.
Error 7 = Remote IP Invalid
The Message you are getting may point to another problem and that is he is not on an Internet connection fast enough to join a 3 or 4 way Video chat.
He needs to have at least 384 kbps as an Upload and not capping the iChat Bandwidth below the 500kbps mark. (iChat Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth Limit drop down)

I thought Facetime might be good, but it works only for Apple. So, Skype it is.
Need a way to let users to video chat. Any suggestions?

is there any way to get ichat back with mountain lion? also is there a way to have multi-person video chats with messages?

There is no way that I know of to install iChat because it is not supported in ML. You may want to read a couple of these Threads

3 person video chat

How do you video ichat with 3 persons. I can have myself and my wife, but I cannot add my niece by clicking on her in my buddy list, as i get an error message saying that a video device is already occupied. this is not specific to my niece (thats only an example) as it is true when I try to add another person for video chat. each of us has a fast connection and our own dot mac account.

Download, install and run MacJanitor It is free.

The most common symptom of not running this sort of Maintenance is loss of the "Stacked" multichat icons - but sometimes you get the symptom you describe first.

Multi Person Video Chatting

I have always been able to video chat and all of a sudden, it only allows me to video chat with one other person. I go to the connection doctor and under my capabilities, it says "Slow Network" next to "Join multi person video" and there is a red X. There is another macbook in my household and it runs fine with no problems in the network

Hi,
iChat "reads" what the Internet Speed is as it starts up.
Lots of factors based around what is going on when iChat is Started up (end of Boot sequence as ichat is Login Item or waking from Sleep) can get a false figure written to the iChat .plist
I would start with a computer Shut down then Restart then launch iChat.
If that does not help delete com.apple.ichat.plist and restart iChat
This .plist is in Your HOme Folder/Library/Preferences which you will have to go to Manually

Which is the best/popular video chat for iPad2?

...of course other than FaceTime. I want to be able to video chat or video conference with anyone, even if they don't have Apple devices. Which works the best AND is accessible to everyone? Does Google video work on the iPad2 as a stand alone or does it require a separate app? Would I be better off setting up a Skype account? What about iChat? Does it integrate lots of different platforms?
Other suggestions?

Yes continued research after posting the question told me that iOS devices don't have iChat. oops.
Ok so one vote for Skype (which I will probably get anyway)... at least for it's popularity. What about Google or other apps? I'd like to hear feedback on them as well.

Who can write Solaris video driver for Intel 810?

We have a customer who wants to use a Flex/ATX mother board with the Solaris OS. The Flex/ATX mother boards us the Intel 810/810E chip set and we have not been able to find a Solaris video driver for that chip set. Does anyone know if such a driver exists or could anyone suggest a company/individual who I could contact to write such a driver for us?
Roger Hull (IBM - Charlotte NC)

Santucho,
If you can not find the video board listed on the Solaris Hardware
Compatibility list found on access1.sun.com, then go over to XInside
at:
http://www.xinside.com/
Their Accelerated-X Display Server is their flagship product. It comes with graphics drivers to support over 600 single-head graphics cards and free customer support. Available in box form, it is licensed on a
per machine per user basis.
Hope thjs helps.

Random video chat for iPad

What is available for iPad random video chatting?

Thank you for answering. I checked on Chatroulette and a couple of others, and they stated you needed Adobe Flash Player, which of course is not available with Apple products. Maybe someday they will get that worked out.
Thanks again so much.

Video support for Intel

Hi all,
I have Solaris 8 for Intel installed on a Dell Dimension XPS t750r desktop machine. It has a Nvidia TNT 32 MB video card. However, during and after install, the install didn't recoginize the card. I then attempted to select it from the list and test, but Solaris generated an error. Because of this I was forced to select VGA only.
Is there a workaround to this?

Wonder if this might help?

Video drivers for intel video adapter for windows 8

any advice on when HP might release an Intel video chip driver for Windows 8

Right now, we are qualifiying drivers for recent notebook models. Shortly after the launch of Windows 8, you'll be able to find drivers for those models as well, on HP.com.
For more information, take a look at this page: http://hp.com/go/windows8
In the meantime, Windows 8 should automatically detect and install an appropriate driver for your Intel video processor. It's hard to say, since I do not know which Intel video processor model you have, or which HP notebook you have. But more often than not, it'll work automatically.
I am an HP employee.
