Can MSN Messenger 6?

[Gody]

Can MSN Messenger 6 maintain a voice and video conversation with somebody
with Windows Messenger 4.7 ?

[Jonathan Kay [MVP]]

Greetings Gody,

Yes -- the audio functions are compatible. The 'Webcam' button in MSN Messenger 6 is not,
use the Actions menu, 'Start Video Conference' option instead (which is compatible with
Windows Messenger).

Don't agree that.
I hadn't luck to getMsgr 6.0 Voice to work behind uPNP/NAT devices.
Video had no problems at all.
Tried that several ways
After I returned to Messenger 5.0 ( both ends ) everything works fine.

Hi Nimi,

Which UPnP/NAT device(s) were it/they?
