VideoLan VideoConference (VLVC) is a plugin for the VLC media player.It adds videoconferencing functions, it can connect from 2 to 10 people so that they can see and hear each others with the help of a computer and a webcam. This software is free and is supported on Windows, Linux and Mac OS. It can be downloaded on the Internet and it aims to be used by private individuals and professionals as well.
Contents
Modes
VLVC will allow four kinds of videoconferencing modes, thus covering most of the users' needs.
- Chatroom mode : All users can hear and see each others, everybody can speak freely.
- Conference mode : This mode has one single user, the server, who transmits his sound and video streams to all other users. In other words, he is the only one who can be heard and seen.
- Amphitheatre mode : This mode is still under development. It is an advanced version of the Conference mode that allows the administrator (the server) to grant and revoke the right of speech to one single user at a time.
- Meeting mode : This mode is under development too. It is similar to the Amphitheatre mode, but it can grant and revoke the rights of speech to multiple users at a time.
