    Best way for hearing person to use PC webcam to call deaf/HoH VRS number?

    A follow up on using the "Free/Beta" Cisco Jabber Video for Telepresence software. On Windows this works successfully to call VRS phones through the @zvrs.com gateway (ie, add @zvrs.com after the VRS phone number). I have been able to call my mother and a deaf friend of hers who both have a...

    Best way for hearing person to use PC webcam to call deaf/HoH VRS number?

    Hi AmyLynne, I am so sorry for not replying back on this; I had seen it before buried in my email and just lost track of it. A few updates on my situation. My mother just recently switched from Sorenson VP200 to NVP (Intouch VP). I am now able to contact her using the Cisco Jabber Video for...

    Best way for hearing person to use PC webcam to call deaf/HoH VRS number?

    I wanted to report back on this thread. I apologize to not have done so earlier. I was able to use the Cisco Jabber client to call a Sorenson ntouch VP; not my mother but of one of her friends that has one. I thought with this good news that maybe I had a chance to be able to call my mother...

    Best way for hearing person to use PC webcam to call deaf/HoH VRS number?

    Thanks Radioman for your reply. Thinking about it more using NetMeeting or Envision SL with the IP address isn't that bad but as you said it adds another layer of tech savviness. In lieu of a VP based solution for a hearie, I wish there was a tech way to given my parents VP number I could run...

    Hi, I am new to AllDeaf.com. I am the hearing son of deaf parents. Although my parents are in their mid 80's they and my brother and I (CODA's) are so thankful for the technology advancement that has occurred in recent years to replace their old TTY with a Sorenson Video Phone. Although we...

    Does anyone has a copy of Envision SL?

    I was glad to find this post (via google) on how to use NetMeeting to make a call to my deaf parents who have Sorenson VP200 but I am hearing and want to call them with my PC webcam. This worked fine for me from my Win XP PC. Yes, I did have to know their IP address but knew this since I had...
