Best program for voice on LAN network?

I want to be able to talk to my students quickly when they have a question but iChat takes too long to establish the Voice connections. Is there a better/faster program I can use?
Thanks,
todd

Hi,
I am not sure there is anything else full stop.
iChat can be somewhat speeded up by setting it to Auto accept.
In iChat Menu > Preferences > Alerts set the top item to Receive Audio Invite
Use the AppleScript Item to Select the Auto Accept (it is a Universal AppleScript that will only use the bit you need)
Obviously this needs to be done on the Student machines but will reduce the number of Clicks and dealing with windows/Invite pop ups for the student.
MSN for Mac does not do Video (unless it is connected to an Windows Server whose name I forget).
Yahoo does not do Audio

    I want to make a 30 minute slide show with voiceover.  Should I make it in iDVD, iPhoto, iMovie, or something else?

    A Garageband Podcast would work pretty good, too.

    Poor old Photoshop® is forever being put down when it comes to layout work, but it is perfectly capable, and can output a high quality print PDF the printer will be perfectly happy with.  OK you don't have the text flow between columns bells and whistles of InDesign and [spit] Publisher, but if you have a $10/month Photoshop/Lightroom subscription, instead of the $50/month full subscription, don't think you can't do a perfectly good flyer or poster.

    Aubry,
    why don't you send your sequences straight to Compressor first, encode your movies as MPEG 2 and AC3 audio and import all assets in DVD studio PRO?

  • What's the best program for making a header containing rollover navigation links?

    I have all CS4 programs and I'm looking to make a header that contains an interactive rollover nav bar. I want the bar to be located within the header. What is the best program for creating the header and rollover buttons. I'm aware i could manipulate the images in other programs, but placement and rollover button creation is what I'm looking for. Thanks. I'm thinking maybe flash or fireworks?

    Spry can do this for you.  See some samples here:

    Or there are commercially available menu systems from the likes of companies like Project Seven, whom I would personally recommend:

    If you have used FreeHand before it is sill FreeHand of
    course - as long as it works in our OS and there are no new
    features you like to use.
    If you have documents with a lot of text elements and
    multiple pages InDesign may be the second best choice. For
    typography it is the best tool available.
    Illustrator is more for illustrations, although it seems that
    it has good control for type it is clumsy and there are a few major
    bugs that makes it unsuitable for body text.

  • Best Program for editing quicktime movies

    What is the best program for editing quicktime movies.
    For example, I have several quicktime movies in the 4:3 aspect ratio, but the video is ment to be 16:9 so there is black on the top and bottom. I want to be able to crop out the black and make the video file a true 16:9 wide screen video becuase my laptop has a widescreen 16:10 aspect ratio lcd. And when playing back these videos, you end up with a couple inches of black on the top and bottom, and right and left, so a lot of screen space get's waisted. The only programs I have found so far that can make a 16:9 quicktime video have not supported the H.264 format, and only stetch the video to 16:9 rather then croping it, so the black remains on the top and bottom and the aspect ratio is off and every one looks short and fat becuase it's not in its native aspect ratio correctly.
    Does anyone have any advice on what program I should use?
    Also, does anyone have any recomendatiosn for how to convert wmv files to quicktime / itunes videos? I have found one program that does so, but it comes out very blocky and the audio is out of sync with the video by a good five seconds.
    Thanks

    MPEG Streamclip (free) can crop and Save As so you wouldn't need to add any new compression to the existing files.
    The make a Windows version now (it used to be Mac only).
    No tips on converting WMP files but you'll find dozens of solutions in the iPod Discussions pages.

  • What is the best program for creating cd inserts for coverart of a  CD?

    I am in a band and need to know the best program for cd artwork.

    If you're more concerned about designing them than about printing them yourself (which would cost a comparative fortune using an inkjet printer, and look crummy using a color laser printer), then Photoshop and Illustrator are by far the best design tools available.

  • Best program for mlti-track audio

    Does anyone know what Adobe program would work to create a multi-track audio interface?
    The idea is to allow a user on a website to select what tracks are played.
    For example:
    A four track audio file of a song including: track 1: lead guitar   Track 2: Rythm guitar   Track 3: Bass guitar  Track 4: Drums
    The user could select all 4 tracks...or, if they wanted to play along with a lead guitar...select tracks 2,3 and 4.
    Can I do that in Flash? Or what would be the best program for that?
    Thanks!!!

    I haven't used the Isotope plug-in, but I use Brian Davies' Denoise which is a stand-alone cross-platform program: I found it much superior to SoundSoap. It's available in a free trial.
    Declaration of interest: I have no financial interest in this program but was involved in the beta testing.
    Together with the same author's ClickRepair it's possible to get remarkable results: this sample of a noisy 78 was treated with both programs.

  • Best program for audio denoising

    Hi,
    I am trying to learn how to better denoise audio files. Right now I use Adobe Soundbooth, but it doesn't seem very good. Or maybe I just don't know what I'm doing!
    What would you consider the best program for reducing and removing unwanted noise from audio files and recordings?

  • Best program for JAVA?

    Hello I am new to java who can tell me the best program for writing java for beginner?

    I looked at notepad before but I do not like it. It
    not have many features.At this point, don't worry about features. Use a simple editor until you can do the following comfortably:
    1) Compile (multiple source) programs from the command line.
    2) Understand and fix compiler errors that show up.
    3) Set the CLASSPATH and fix problems that arise when the JVM can't find the Classes it needs.
    4) Run your program using the 'java' command line
    5) Read and understand Stack Traces that occur when your program runs.
    6) Use the 'jar' utility to bundle your program
    Then, and only then worry about moving on to an Editor/IDE that provides rich development features. If you don't understand the fundamentals of compiling and running Java programs, an IDE will only serve as a crutch.
