performance</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>One way to tell what is going on is to mute all of the video
streams. when muted, all vic is doing is parsing the packet streams, and not
decoding the h261 (as I recall anyway). It is definitely not rendering them.
If you still see frame loss with streams muted, it is most likely the network
at fault.<BR><BR>You can also bring up the CPU monitor; if you are seeing 100%
CPU with the video streams being displayed, that's a clue that the computer is
not keeping up.<BR><BR>--bob<BR><BR>On Feb 21, 2005, at 8:45 AM, Natalia

<BLOCKQUOTE><BR> <BR> <BR><?fontfamily><?param Arial><?smaller><?x-tad-smaller>I
have quite a huge problem. VIC is performing in a strange way, I have 13
windows on my display and each videostream has been reduced its fps rate. It
seems like VIC discarded frames due to performance issues or something like
that.<?/x-tad-smaller><?/smaller><?/fontfamily></BLOCKQUOTE>
