Videoconferencing
Different applications can be used for videoconferencing. These programs allow you
to come into contact with other people via the Internet who have a camera, so you
can hold a videoconference. Below is an explanation of how NetMeeting is used to

NetMeeting
1.
Connect the camera as described in chapter 7.3.2.
2.
Make sure you have an Internet account installed and your speakers and
microphone are connected before starting NetMeeting.
3.
Start NetMeeting (Start -> Programs -> NetMeeting, or Start -> Programs ->
Accessories -> Internet Tools -> NetMeeting, depending on your version of
Windows).

connection.

Fill in your user name and password and click on 'Connect' to connect to the
Internet.

Once a connection has been made with the Internet, only the NetMeeting
window will remain visible. The Dial-up Connection window will disappear.

A number of settings should be made only once.
Click on ‘Tools -> Options…’ and click on the ‘Video’ tab

‘Show mirror image in preview video window’. Image settings, such as the

the list.
You can find other ILS server addresses on the Internet.
