Hi, You may need to set up your node to send video: 1) Load up the toolkit and click on "Preferences --> Manage My Node..." 2) Click on "Service --> Add..." and select the "VideoProducerService". 3) Select your camera or select "Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32)" - it will probably be the only one. Now, when you connect to a venue, you will have two VIC windows.
If you also cannot receive video, this could be due to other issues: If you are in Windows XP and you can receive and send audio but can only send video, this is probably because you are unlucky and vic is selecting the wrong interface to use. There are two solutions to this: 1) Disable all interfaces except the one you connect to the internet with; or 2) Install Windows XP service pack 2 (I have not tried this). This could be also be due to all sorts of other problems such as firewall issues or multicast problems. It is usually best to disable your firewall to see if this helps (of course this opens your computer to all sorts of traffic). If your network is not multicast enabled then you could try using a bridge by selecting "Unicast" from the "Preferences" menu. If this is greyed out, it will mean that there is no bridge available from the venue server you are connected to.

I am using the internal sound card and a simple webcam to get started. The audio seems to work but I can't get any video. Can someone give me some direction on where to get started to solve this problem? Thanks is advance. Al Kraft
