100% new at openfire - please can somebody advise me?

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
