Hello
I'm looking for the best video call app for Transformer which permits to video call to a Windows Desktop PC in good voice and video quality.
I do not need to video call to another device, I really only look for the best app to video call from a transformer to a Windows Desktop PC.
Who can help?
Thanks
Probably Google Talk to Google Chat..
Thanks, can it use the front camera?

Yep, with the option of the rear camera as well, I use it to chat with my brother/show him the kid.
There is a button to switch to whatever camera you want.
How good does it work?
anything I can use to videochat with someone on a Mac?

Google chat works from inside the browser, so they can be on Mac, Windows, or even Linux, and you can chat to them.
Hmm. I thought only voicechat worked with Macs?

Is video calling for the EVO and sprint gonna work out the box or is the front facing cam there in preperation for future support?
future support
Out the box using Qik
Out of the box future support using Qik. Clear enough for you?
It's going to work when you get it. I'm guessing you'll only be able to video chat with outer Qik users, though.
Any idea if you'll be able to use the foward facing camera as a web cam plugged in to a PC?
Out of the box? Doubt it. If someone programs an app to use it as such? Definitely.
i hear its out of the box with Qik i hope that pc users can video chat with the phone, that would make it very cool.
Will you be able to use video chat over 3g?

Yes you can through qik's site on a pc
phone to phone, desktop to phone...
at the official launch party, dan hesse said during the demo that upon the phones release june 4th, an "upgrade" would be available which would enable using the front facing camera for phone to phone video calls as well as desktop to phone video calls. a new Qik app maybe? not skype w/ verizon's contract...although i have heard people are successfully using the skype beta app floating around, on networks other than verizons!
As I posted on the "Video chat on PC" thread:
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.

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
in the app store is a program oovoo that allows you to video calls. It also allows the connection between the ooVoo and Skype. on the galaxy tab works and looks very well. how you want to try the call to me. my ooVoo id "zandrzejz. sorry for bad english
just noticed it as well gonna try it now, hopefully this finnally will be the solution to do video chat with mac and a pc
The image is flipped. Its not supported.

yes, i was wondering. negative market comments of no support for galaxy tab (e.g. also not for front facing camera) and no mention of skype connectivity in market description... i wonder whether the OP every actually tried the app
It's a start
Tried this thinking it was an answer. It is half an answer.
1. It allows and easy switch between front and back camera.
2. It sees the incoming video.
3. It DOES NOT transmit video.
The ClearSeas app WORKS VERY WELL so it can be done - just need to figure out how to make it work.
Also, Yahoo messenger works very well INBOUND on the Galaxy but NOT on outgoing.
We are almost there. Come on Skype
Hi!
Is there any Android app that enables high-quality video calls (like Skype) to other users on a desktop computer that works with the Galaxy Tab and its front camera? I don't care if this would imply a certain ROM.
Skype including video support doesn't seem to be available for Android, neither does GTalk (am I right?). I tried vtok to do a video call to a GTalk Account but the video quality was awful.
Any ideas what I might try?
Thank you in advance!

Try this:
http://www.oovoo.com/
For PC, Mac, Android and I think that it is also available for iOS
The android app runs fine in my Galaxy tab but I haven't tested it on a video call
Are you running gingerbread? Get the talk installer from the market to have working video chat through gtalk.

you can use the gingerbread version of gtalk on the tab and the browser version of gtalk on the pc (it will ask you to install video plugin)

There's a modified Yahoo Messenger that work just fine on the TF.

Anyone have a working apk for Qik video chat? The wife has the Sensation and I've been looking for a video chat compilable with it. Google Talk won't work since the Sensation runs 2.3.3, not 2.3.4.
Qik is now Skype. Does not support video chat on Tf as of now

Google Chat has the best video and audio clarity out of everything I tested.
I had tango working on my tf, but it sounds like crap and the video is fuzzy.
Pretty crazy that you are using the same hardware and you get a different output depending on the program you are using. I guess tango does some type of compression or something.

Okay, sorry if this is very obvious but how do you get google talk/chat on the TF. I can't find it in the market and if i go to through the browser it says that it needs to install the plug in?
Hmm, everyone keeps saying use google talk. However I must be missing something.
I have "allow video and voice chats" checked in, but I can not initiate video chat with any of my contacts.
I don't have even an option to activate video chat...

It will only work with other users who have a client that supports video chart (those logged in through Gmail / Google Talk on their tablet / Google Talk on their phone).

For those users not on 2.3.4/Android, they can download and install Vtok
What we need here is FaceTime for Android - I've been using it to talk with my father and it's worked flawlessly. Smooth video, easy connection.
I've had lots of problems with video chat apps for android with video's being upside down or problems connecting - even google talk was hard to get working from PC to Tablet

I am able to vidchat wih no issue via GChat over 4G and wifi. Tango works too..,I have LG Gslate

HOw do you get Tango to work!? It keep asking me for a phone number!
On a side note, Google Talk works GREAT!!! I wish they add support for Google+ Hangout feature so you can chat with a bunch of people... that'd be awesome!
