Hello Chris,
As EZ Jim said, if they are not capable, regardless of what your capablities, then you still can't do it.
If they are not capable, the message may just be the default way of saying it isn't possible.
If they are not capable, then that is another issue.
I would suggest you try a multi-chat with testers. add EZ Jim, myself, Ralph or any of the other testers into your buddy list. you can find our iChat ID in our profiles. Here is a link to mine Gil Taylor when you see one of us online, you could try to video with us and we can try a multi-video if more than one of us is available. If it works, then we can put to bed the question of your actual capabilites. Note, some testers perfer you send an IM prior to a video request.
