Web cam or video camera
Can Messenger conduct a video conversation with a regular video camera?
Messenger seesthe image coming in through my video camera. When I invite someone to a conversation (we both have XP and Messenger 5.0), they do not receive video. My computer says its sending and I can see what I'm trying to send in the Messenger window. Do I need software that runs between the camera and Messenger (does it exist) or do I just need to get a web cam with associated software? Thanks for your help. |

Greetings Bill,
If it's appearing in the Messenger window, you and your contact might try turning off the QoS Packet Scheduler. To do so, click Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, then Communications, and then Network Connections. Right click your network/internet connection, then click Properties. Uncheck the QoS Packet Scheduler, and try again. ____________________________________________ Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Messenger/MSN Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2004 Jonathan Kay.

Thank you, Johathan. When I right-click properties, I'm told that I am
using an internet sharing device and there is no entry for QoS Packet Scheduler. I'm using a Microsoft MN-100 router for my 2-PC home network and access to a broadband modem.
