Hello all,
I think I have got as far as I can without asking newbie questions. Here is my scenario...
I am the caretaker at a community conference building and have been asked to get a feed of what happens in the main auditorium to a tv screen (PC monitor) in another room.
The initial idea was to use a Skype PC in the main hall and video call the PC in the other room.
It worked, but was poor quality and full of lag and delay.
So, I would like to do the same thing but only using our internal network. I think OpenFire is my answer?
Is this what I need to do?
1) install open fire server on a PC.
2) install an xmpp client on the 'main hall' laptop and also on the 'other room' laptop.
3) adjust a load if settings to use the server address for the clients.
4) make a video call...
5) receive pat on back from manager.
Please can you let me know...
1) which xmpp client? (This bit confuses me)
2) is open fire ONLY a server? Or is it also the client?
3) what plugins do I need to install? I think Spark might be needed but again, I don't understand.
4) and finally, what other advice can you offer please?
Many thanks
Rick
