My hearing friend wants to chat with me on the VP

sequoias · 08-23-2009, 12:27 AM

Does anyone know a good video conferencing program that will make calls to my VP-200 because I do not have a webcam. She wants to learn sign language some more with me. She has a PC laptop running Windows Vista OS. I checked on Netmeeting but it is too old and only supports up to Windows 2000/ME. It should support ip calling feature or something.

Thanks!

I'm not sure....would she have to register for that? Can hearing people register a local number it for free when downloading a VP software such as P3? Hmmm

Ah ok, sounds good. What if there's an option to download a video conferencing program that can do calls with IP which I'm not sure which program is good. That's if she doesn't want to do that method.

ip? as in internet provider? ???

also, this is just another suggestion, but there are cheap webcams that you can buy at best buy or target or something, that you just plug into the usb slot of your computer, and use aim or skype or whatever im service. just a suggestion :-)

Well I think I have found a solution.. but thanks for the suggestion. She's downloading P3 software and will take care of the rest.

I think that you should buy webcam. You can chat with hearing people in ooVoo program. Free Video Chat and Video Conferencing from ooVoo

Well, Some hearing people applied for Viable if they are fake deaf. They can't apply for Purple to get P3.

I think that some video chat program competable to h.323 videophone (D-link VP). I will find out about it later.
