Ichat 4 way video conference

guys hope you can help.
I am a Mac newbie and have been dropped from a great height into Ichat video conferencing.
My company have bought 5 24" imacs for VC and a mini mac running ichat server.The company who installed can't seem to help. they told me that all th audio\video data goes through the mac server. I have disproved this by having two of the imacs log on and VC I then disconnected the mac server and the 2 imacs continued to VC.
so my question is how does the audio\video data move?
say in a three way chat mac1 initiates conf with mac2 and mac3, does mac1 host all data or do mac2 and mac3 pass their audio\video data between themselves?
I hope this makes sens i need to know how video\audio is moved to set QOS accross our WAN VPN.
"Panarama rule"
thanks

Thanks for the reply Rocky.
so the bottle neck when it comes to bandwidh will be the initiating mac. we have 2mb lease lines with QOS of 1mb for video conferencing will this be enough?
we bought this solution from and Apple dealer who said we would get excellent quality with a 4 way video conference session.
what sort of kbps do you need for a reliable consistaint session?
we are crossing subnets so bonjour wont work i believe.
im sorry I have so many question but i cant find a definitive answer from apple or our supplier (they Dont know)

Photo editing and occasional video stuff - which Macbook Pro for me?

Hi guys! I'm seriously considering buying a Macbook Pro to replace my current desktop PC. My intuition is telling me to get 16GB of RAM and to not settle for a two core processor. This, however, isn't too easy on the wallet.
I do photo editing quite regularly, working with raw files that have 20-ish megapixels. This includes simple adjustments in Lightroom, and more advanced editing in Photoshop. Sometimes I also do simple video editing, working with 1080p material, typically shot with a DSLR.
I'm not looking for a serious pro machine - simply something that wouldn't be too frustrating in this kind of work. In photography I consider myself to be a serious hobbyist, and the video work is somewhere between amateur, prosumer and consumer level stuff.
What kind of tips and suggestions can you give me? Looking forward to hearing your ideas!

Thanks. I've been thinking that I'd use my current 24" monitor with the macbook as well. Maybe a bigger screen on the laptop itself would be nice on the road - but I don't consider that a necessity.
Any comments on the performance difference between the dual-core and quad-core processors?

Quictime/iChat AV 3 video conference help

I've tried to do a video chat with my MacBook but it says I do not have enough bandwidth to maintain the video chat. Error: -22. It says that my Quicktime preferences are set for 0 kbps. It says to go to Quicktime preferences and click on the Connection tab. I don't see a connection tab, and I don't have any limit set on bandwidth in my iChat preferences. Anyone seen this problem before? I sent it to Apple a few times.

Did you check back to your iChat post?

IChat and USB Video Class devices - where to file feature requests?

Hi,
i'm using a Logitech 9000 Pro for video chat (iChat, Skype), and found the "generic" support of MacOS X somewhat lacking. While i'm happy with the out-of-the-box support, both running it in Parallels Windows XP and peeking around with Apple's USB Prober application revealed that the camera is capable of lots more features (USB Prober even lists them all) that the video input of MacOS X simply ignores. i.e. you can only use 320x240 (10.4) or 640x480 (10.5), 10 fps, OR (in Quicktime Pro) 1600x1200, 5 fps.
So my question is:
Is a feature request for an additional pop-up menu (like "use video stream 640x480 @ 30 fps" in the camera selector) best filed for iChat, or Quicktime, or maybe "OS X" (since it seems to be an operating system driver)?

Yes to all of those.
Sometimes settings made in other places are held between apps.
Take a Look at the Quicktime Preferences for the Player if you have Quicktime Pro or even iMovie

Which Adobe software do I need?

Good day... I recently purchased my first MacBook Pro, and am in a service class where I have to download service documentation (schematics, flow-charts, etc), from CD to my Mac. Problem is, I can't seem to view some of these docs, as they were intended to be viewed and manipulated..i.e., they have built-in links to other portions of the docs, to reference items in more detail, etc. I'm wondering if there is a particular version of Adobe that would allow me to utilize these service docs, as they were intended, without resorting to using a PC.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Al

Hi alfrompittsburgh,
What format are the files that you're downloading? Are they PDFs (you can tell by looking at the filename extension). If they're PDFs and you need to manipulate them, Acrobat is what you want. If you just need to view the PDF files (follow the built-in links, or zoom in), you can do that with the free Adobe Reader software.
Best,
Sara

Found ports setting...but still cant video conference with ichat

I was once able to use iChat to type back and forth and use video conference (i was borrowing my neighbors wireless connection). But since I got this siemens SE567 router, the video chat fails to connect. I can still chat by typing. I have set up port forwarding for the following ports (all UDP): 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678 and 16384-16403. Also, thanks to Kappy and Barney, I have allowed iChat to access the internet. I think these ports are for iChat. But are the same for the videos, or do I have to open other ports (may be for isight). please help. May be i didnt have to open those ports I did since I was always able to use iChat to type.

In the Mac Firewall setting it to Allow All is just that it allows all ports or rather all apps to use any port they want.
In the routing device it tends to be different and somewhat different depending on the device.
A routing device will need to open the ports above 1024 in some manner (UPnP, Port Forwarding, Port Triggering or DMZ).
With some the firewall if it has a software version as well will be effective on those ports and will allow traffic.
On other devices the ports that are to be firewalled also need to be set.
Next comes what does the firewall actually do.
This for example is based on Levels
It includes at different stages things like Not Responding to Internet Pings, Intrusion detection, DOS and SPI but couches them in none threatening (friendly) terms that can be seen as being less informative.
On some devices the DOS or SPI (Some have both but must have one or the other) and Responding to Internet Pings can be separate features making you wonder what the actual firewall is doing.
This 3com emulator page makes it clear what the firewall here does and links the things that are going to be affected by it under it as sub headings in the menu.
This Netgear one has Firewall place and in the WAN menu item has either SPI or DOS (depending of firmware version) and Ping Blocking in that menu item. The actual firewall just seems to allow All Outgoing connection and block incoming ones but does not actually say what it is protecting you from.
(I had one of these and only did the WAN page stuff)
The upshot is that in your case you may need to set the ports in Port Forwarding (NAPT on yours) and also set them in the firewall. But having said that if it has an Off setting it would seem it firewall the ports that are in use.
Now in addition some routing modem are SIP aware and expect any SIP data to go to a VoIP phone. In theses cases there is a special Binding of SIP to port 5060. I know that Thomson-Alcatel Speedtouch range does this and some Drayteks but I am not aware of any of the Siemens range doing it.
My Netgear DG834G had a firmware Update which added a SIP ALG
ALGs are Application Level Gateways and are supposed to help with those particular applications. I could not work out if the one in my Netgear did actually help or not so I turned it Off
At the bottom.
I can not see from the Port Forward pics that suggests that you have these either.
The Manual seems to be downloadable from here which may help

QOS for video conference

Hi,
Can somebody help me design the best way to configure qos in the following scenario? and where to apply the qos policy?
Central office:
2600xm router and Polycom video conference device
Remotes:
2600xm router and Polycom
Note: The remotes are connected using a ipsec tunnel from pix to pix and the 2600xm is in the inside doing GRE to the main router which is a 3660 which is connected via a ptop t1 to the location where the other 2600xm is.(2600>pix>pix>3660>2600).
Thanks very much,
Uriel.

I think this documents give a good idea about the QoS requirement in a video deployment .

How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)?

How do I connect my MacBook Pro to an LCD TV (with HDMI and S-Video ports)? I assume I would need to use the DVI to Video adapter that came with my computer to connect to my LCD tv. I'm just not sure which port I should use on the TV. The HDMI port is being used for digital cable.
Also, does anyone know if this can be done wirelessly?

For a 2010+ MBP you can connect with a Displayport to HDMI, which will include Audio.
With older MBP you will need a displayport to HDMI, if you want audio to the actually TV, then you will need to get a cable with either digital out from MBP to the HDMI, or USB audio mixed into the HDMI

Video Format Total Solution: How to Convert and Edit Video on Windows/Mac

More and More video formats are coming out with different video encoders and it makes our spare time more and more colorful. However, it is not to say that there is no problems. Actually, different video formats make it difficult to share video with others, even your own camcorder and iPod. Is there an easy way to convert videos effectively. Yes, there is.
In this article, I will show you guys how to convert videos on windows and mac.
Part 1. How to Convert and Edit Videos on Windows
For Windows users, you need a Video Converter(http://www.aiseesoft.com/total-video-converter.html) to do that for you.
Here I use Aiseesoft Total Video Converter(http://www.aiseesoft.com/total-video-converter.html)
Step 1: Download and install Aiseesoft Total Video Converter
After you download it to your computer, double click it and it is really easy to install.
You just need to click “next” and it will complete it in seconds. It will automatically run after installation.
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/total-video-converter/screen.jpg
Step 2: Load Video
Click “Add File” to find the video that you want to convert and click “open”. It will be loaded automatically.
Step 3: Select the target to decode
In the “Profile” drop download list you can find your target according the usage of your output video, such as if you want to put the video on your iPod touch, you can select the “iPod” in the first list and “iPod touch 2 MPEG-4 640*480(*.mp4)” in the second list.
Step 4: Set Advanced Parameters
After you select the right output profile, you can click “setting” button to set your advanced parameters. You can adjust video and audio settings separately. In video section, you can change “video encoder”, “resolution”, “frame rate”, “video bitrate”In audio section, you can change “audio encoder”, “sample rate”, “channel”, “audio bitrate”If you want to save this profile and settings and use it next time you can click “save as” button to give a name to it. And the next time you want to use it you can find it in the profile list named “user defined”.
Step 5: Choose a Destination
To browse and find a output folder for your output files or just the default one.
Finally, Click “Convert” button to begin your conversion, here in the converting
interface you can choose “shut down the computer when conversion complete” or “open output folder when conversion complete” or you just do not choose neither one.
Tips: How to Edit the Output Video
This video converter is also a video editor, you can use it to edit your output video as follows:
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/total-video-converter/effect.jpg
1. Effect:
You are allowed to adjust the “Brightness”, “Contrast”, “Saturation” and you can choose the “deinterlacing” to make the video more enjoyable.
2. Trim:
In “Trim” section you can pick up any part of the video to convert.
There are two ways to select the part of the video you want. One is set the start and end time in the box. The other one is to drag the start and end button in the processing bar.
3. Crop:
This function allows you to choose a certain play area to convert. That means you can choose a part of the screen you like to convert. For example, you just like the tv in the middle of the screen, then you can drag the frame around the preview window to select the tv and the output preview will show you the output video.In this section you can also choose the “zoom mode”, such as “keep original”, “full screen”, “16:9”, “4:3”.
4. Watermark
In the section, you can add a watermark on the output video to show people something, such as your name, website, studio name or other things. The watermark could be words and picture. You can adjust the transparent of the watermark easily to make it more beautiful.
Part 2. How to Convert Video on Mac
This time you need a Video Converter for Mac(http://www.aiseesoft.com/video-converter-for-mac.html)
Step 1: Add File
Click “Add File” button to load the video you want to converter
http://www.aiseesoft.com/images/guide/mac-video-converter/steps.jpg
Step 2: Choose profile and adjust settings
You can find your output video format from a drop-list called “Profile”You can also adjust the specific settings of the output video, such as “Resolution”, “Bitrate”, “Encoder” and so on.

VM Fusion + Windows XP + Which Antivirus software is compatiale?

I will be installing VM Fusion on my Macbook Pro and Windows XP. Which Antivirus software is compatible? I am really interested in McAfee Total Protection 2008. However requires that the processor to run it should be a pentium 500 processor. My Macbook Pro has an intel processor. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also please let me know what you personally use and how you like it. I would love to hear some feedback.
Thank you,
TraLana

*"However requires that the processor to run it should be a pentium 500 processor. My Macbook Pro has an intel processor"*
Ummm, Pentiums are made by Intel, and they are fairly dated. Your MacBook is more than capable of running McAffee.

Are 30gb and 60gb video same size?

To answer your question, no. But they are very close.
The 30 GB vesion is 2.4 x 4.1 x .43 inches and the 60 gb is 2.4 x 4.1 x .55 inches. Also, the 60 gb weighs 5.5 ounces as oppposed its 4.8 oz brother. Display size is exactly the same.
