I'd be happy to participate in some testing - in fact I was going to
propose another ConfXP test to the bigvideo group soon - maybe for next
thursday?<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi Derek,
I am the program manager for ConferenceXP at Microsoft Research.
Unfortunately the interop story remains the same, and we don't have any
bridging capability at the moment.
Regarding audio/video - you are correct that you can't logically tie a/v
devices across multiple machines, and I'd like to better understand the
scenario that this serves? We can however support multiple cameras per
computer.
You comments regarding venue service configuration are valid and I will
add this to our wish list for the next release.
I would certainly be interested in participating in some testing with
anyone who is keen. I think Bob Riddle would be as well - right Bob :-)
Regards
Chris

Subject: Re: [AG-TECH] Conference XP vs AG
Is that still the story on interoperability? Those posts you
linked to
are years old. Is there a VRVS style bridging thing somewhere?. Sorry to
resurect an old thread, I'm getting back into reading the list after
vacation.
I've taken a look at Conference XP and it's very slick to
operate, just
run it and go like Bob said. Also does shared applications, including a
'screen streamer' too. The only thing slightly unweidly is the venue
stuff, you have to add a venue server to a list of entries and then
select it to go to it, as far as I can see there's not the 'url bar'
style that AccessGrid has, there are also many less venues, as far as I
can tell.
Audio and Video seems limited to the client machine, i.e. you
can't
have multiple machines running cameras and audio and tie them together
like AG does, and of course it's Windows only.
Running a Venue server is simple enough, and like I mentioned
you have
to add the url to a drop-down list and then select it to access that
server's venues.
I'd enjoy doing some distance/conference tests if anyone else
wants to
play with it too. It'd be interesting to see how it handles many
participants. If anyone wants to play with it, email me off-list and let
me know.
