I'm Stoned Deaf
I am talking about Webcam for any VP chat

NOTE: I am NOT talking about Sorenson at all
 
just as long as you find webcam with 30 fps, that's important.

Ok thank u ! fps = frame per second


it looks like all of them have at least 30 fps
but which 1 or 2 or 3 do you think would be best ?

Wait!


You can apply with either HOVRS or Hamilton relay service. They will send you free webcam!!! They are far much better than those you have seen. I can't remmy, but there is two sensors. CMOS and CCD, I believe CCD is best for VP chat. CMOS is cheaper sensor, not as great as CCD. I think....

Can you give us a link or two for apply for free webcam please. Thanks.
 
Tweetybird has one ask her about it. She know which one that she got it for free. ;) Maybe I should do the same for my PC! :giggle:
 
Hmmm ... can anyone explain pro and con for between webcam and DLink i2eye (Videophone) from HOVRS?
 
Big difference!
The true advantage of Dlink VP or sorenson VP over webcam is far superior video quality, and if you want equal video quality using webcam, you have to disable the firewall on your computer which pose greater threats from hackers and viruses against your PC, while VP unit itself is meaningless to most of viruses and hackers.

The router itself, where you can set up firewall setting. If you notice DMZ feature on it, give you an idea... You know these airport security nowadays? Long line for check point right? Same concept with firewall built in routers. Using DMZ is like having airport checkpoint for all airplanes, and there is only one gate without security checkpoint so anyone can barge in that plane, so... Image that, if terrorist want the easiest way to gain access? That gate without security checkpint is most likely for terrorist to barge in. Same idea, with DMZ port it allows free flow of data in and out of that DMZ port, while the rest of the port which you connects your PC to have to go though security checkpoint.

Does DLink i2eye would be better (for video qualities) then what I have DLink 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch?
 
If you have choice and you plan to have VP in same place, then Either Sorenson VP or Dlink VP would be best choice. For those who don't have TV, or want portablity then cam is next choice.
You can have both if you want to.
