video conferencing / video chat software - Touch Cruise General

One of the "cool" features of this phone is the fact that it can make videocalls using the front camera... But, in the US, who else has this feature where you can actually use it for that? lol
Are there any other programs that can access the camera, where I can video chat with someone, like on yahoo or aim (while connected via WiFi)? I have Palringo and I will be the first to admit how cool it is, but I think the idea could be taken further? Any suggestions? Anyone tried that VZOchat ?Thanks in advance...

[REQ] IM with video support

Is there Instant Messaging software with video (front camera) capability for Windows Mobile?
The right question
Try to google M$ Portrait. I think it support video using your phone's camera. I tried it before but I only tested the voice and chat.
But I also read recently, that development was discontinued. Not sure why.
yea man there is
actualy there is till now 2 prog for video chat on wm
www.ivisit.com
www.vzochat.com
enjoy
yeah, but who needs another protocol? Skype/msn should work on modern devices which HAVE power to manage the heat.

Video chat on PC ~ EVO Possible?

Title says it all, will we be able to do a video call with a pc user who is using a webcam?
Qik allows it, so yes.

I'm assuming private chat, not recorded and posted on my qik page. I can't seem to find much about it, does anyone know where I can find more about it?
yes, new app? w/ Qik...
yes, the official launch they said that "an upgrade" (i believe through Qik, an app maybe?) will enable the phone to utilize phone to phone OR phone to pc video calls..."CALLS"...so it must be the case. i guess they foresaw having to compete w/ skype and verizon in this manner...w/ verizon's upcoming vphone (saygus) offering video conferencing software via android, more options may open up than just offered up front at sprint.
Also remember that the 4th gen iPhone will also have a front facing camera, as well as code in the os that point to iChat intergration.
I can't wait till we have an Android app that works with iChat!
This is an upgrade to the qik app or qik account. I wonder if it will cost. That would sure ruin it.
I'm praying for skype to skype video on the Evo.

same, stupid verizon, buying up skype.....
I know I'm half awake, so maybe I missed something, but from what I can see, Qik doesn't have a full desktop/PC app. They seem to be very phone centric.
They do have an app called "Qik-in-Touch" that runs on the desktop and will tell you when your friends are broadcasting publicly (or maybe privately to all friends?) but last time I played with it (when it first went beta), it didn't support webcam on the PC. So it was receive-only on the desktop.
It's something, but not a direct one to one video calling/chat. But maybe they've updated it since the last time I played with it, or maybe I just missed some things.

That's what I was concerned about, I haven't seen anything about being able to video chat to a PC

actually google bought Global IP Systems, they allow skype, qik and so on to have video calling and chat XD so we will see.
Wonder if Google Talk will be getting video chat on the PC and Android phones.
I my opinion that would be great. If you have a Android phone you have a gmail account so it only make sense that it should be coming.

Your prayers have been answered. Fring now supports video chatting with Skype.

Here's another video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YHrK5gg1Pk
Gizmodo demonstrates video calling from Evo to Evo using Fring - http://gizmodo.com/5549494/fring-for...rom-the-future
Qik does it, but its an extra $5/month, like the post above fring will make skype video calls, or atleast recieve them for now, i havent seen it making a video call yet.

you can do pc to phone and viceversa it receives and makes calls i have already tested it
dont forget skype is releasing video chat on all android devices this year too
Fring is supposed to do skype with the front camera
Tested it today. Two evos both using fring, worked well on our subpar 3G service around here. I did Skype on PC to Fring (logged into a skype account) on an evo. Worked great all the same. I played with fring on an old windows mobile device, and had problems. Today on my evo, the experience was flawless.

Grab & install Fring from the Market. I've been using it for the past 2 days to video chat EVO > PC. PC users on Skype.
NYC is still 3G only, so its pretty bad, but switch to Wifi And I found the quality rather acceptable.

Video chat?

Are there any video chat apps that work on Android with the rear-cam whether it is Skype based to a computer or phone-to-phone?
i'd also like to know if i can video chat with the rear cam, even if it means I don't see anything. Atleast the other party will be able to see me.
anyone?
thanks~
Fring, YAH!

Fring blows, and they removed skype support so it's useless now. Only thing I would use it for is chatting from mobile to mobile for video chat

[Q] Video Chat and Camera

Hey guys, picked up a G Tablet as a holiday gift for someone, and for the money I have to say the hardware isn't too bad (software is tolerable thanks to all the hard working devs out there).
I am having a problem with video chat though. The FFC was a big selling point for me, but as of now I can't find a video chat app that works. Fring gives video, but the speakers just crackle and no audio is transmitted or received. Any idea guys? Would love to at least get Android -> Android video chat going.
In addition (using TnT lite firmware) whenever I start the camera it works fine, but if I exit, then re-enter the camera all I get is a blank screen until reboot. I'm sure software will fix this, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one.
the yahoo messenger with video add on works ok.

[Q] front facing camera?

what exactly is this for? i dont see an option for it when calling and the phone didnt come with a program for video calls? is it in the making?
well, you can take pics of yourself to upload onto facebook if your into that kind of thing. Sure beats the little chrome dot that your supposed to use as a mirror LOL
I am sure at some point there will be Skype and other programs that will and can use it. Just a matter of time
facing camera is for purpose using the video conference or taking a picture of yourself for some purpose like facebook or update your new face.
You can just download Tango or skype app or whatever your favorite video conference app.
You need the leaked skype.apk for skype video calling which on Sense 2.2 works great. CM7 also has Gtalk with video mostly working. I haven't tried Tango yet but I'm sure it works as well for video chatting.
I have used it with Yahoo Messenger with the video chat plugin and it works great.
Still waiting (patiently.....) for vid-chat support on Google Talk.
