Re: [AG-TECH] VIC won't start and static multicast addresses

Using the VenueManagement tool, connect to your venue server, select the room, click Modify, and there is an Addressing section where you can indicate the static addresses (dynamic by default). - Original Message - From: "West Suhanic" To: "Thomas D. Uram" ; "West Suhanic" Cc: Sent

G'day All I hope you don't mind, but I will put my 2 cents worth here. I actually disagree with having to add more mic's to support all of the users, etc. We currently have 4 microphones (2 desktop and 2 ceiling mounts mic's) which have supported up to 20 people for a single AccessGrid meeting.

You may need to increase the number of microphones in your setup. For 6-8 people we use a minimum of 4 (crown) table top mics. At 04:39 PM 2/17/2005, Natalia Costas Lago wrote: >mmm that doesnt seem to be an acceptable solution for us. > >Wh

This part of the problem is related to the bridging software. It distinguishes between clients based on IP but not port, so it sends data to only one vic instance per machine. On a single machine node, the workaround is to use a VideoService instead of both a VideoProducer and VideoConsumer

Hi West: The venueserver allocates multicast addresses dynamically by default. When someone enters the venue and will be sending video, a multicast address is allocated and used. If no one in the venue is sending video, there will be no mcast address for it, so when you enter with a consum

We run into people with different speaking levels a lot during meetings here at ACCESS. The way we handle it is to try and identify a microphone for the soft spoken speaker and boost the fine gain control for it using gware. ___ At 12:16 PM 2/17/2005,

Hi Leslie, How do u manage to compensate quiet and loud talkers in a room?. Maybe with the compressor feature?. I send u a copy of our XAP settings (the report). It seems that sound in our rooms is more stable with AGC enabled, some of our rooms are very noisy, we need about 10 dB of noise canc
