Re: Video conferencing application

[Valessio S Brito <contato valessiobrito info>]

Hi all,
sorry my english...

I'm participating in another thread looking for a solution to this.

Among some proposals, like the OpenMeettings.de[1] [2]

But like the idea of a friend aka 'Lucasa' (in CC):
- Create a page that automatically generates thumbnails on HTML5, all  
videos sent to a "Icecast" for guests.
Anyone can make a stream with VLC or Landell[3], sending an icecast  
which someone calls (provides access to data).

With 'Landell' is very simple to stream your webcam, is something I  
believe very much in the future be a software for the Gnome web  
channels and provide access to streaming video.
