What I mean is, every time I call someone, I need to go into my preferences tab and adjust the
video transmission bandwidth so that I don't overload the remote client. I would much rather set
the video transmission bandwidth to 20 kB/s just once, since that is how much video my client is
capable of transmitting.

I don't think that I should need to be changing the preferences tab on a call-by-call basis. I
would like to be able to set GM up for my parents and not need to tell them that they might need
to tweak the configuration every time.

Cheers,
Chris

P.S. Could you also change the text so that it explicitly says that it's the *transmission* video
bandwidth, please?
