Oh ok... great. Thanks for the information!Dennis said:If a hearing person wants to talk to both a hearing person and a deaf person through a sign language interpreter via videophone, then, yes, a hearing person can do so.
On top of that, a hearing person can talk to two deaf people via VRS by using 3 way calling to 2 VRS services. So, yes, hearing peple can do a lot with their telephones that VRS can't do right now.
ChelEler said:How can I make a "three-way call" with VP? I have Sorenson VP-100. I'm curious how I can make a call to one person and then connect another person onto the same phone line. Any suggestions or ideas? Thank you.
Awesome!! Thanks.FeistyChick said:with VP 200 you can!!! i am getting it in the fall.. YAYYY! it depends on where you are--- you will get it (it will be replaced with VP 100)
Dennis said:You can't. The technology behind making a call to see two other people on one video screen requires everyone to log into a central server or "gateway." That way, you still see one video screen, but the server will combine the other two people's images into one screen and then send it to your VP for you to see.
VP technology isn't meant for viewing two separate video streams at once. It's impossible to do a three way call just like hearing people do with their telephones.
Dennis said:That's not a 3-way call because the two people you're talking to can't see each other or talk to each other.
I don't believe that the VP-200 can do a 3-way call without a central server mixing and managing the video streams. So, until someone posts proof of 3-way video calls on the VP-200 in action, it's not possible. I've seen high end VP conference calls in action, and none of them were mutli-point without a gateway server.
