The idea which I got from a conference room environment that delivered an experience which is so true to life an executive could use the solution instead of spending time and money traveling to meetings. The investment which I made on time the returns of the company justify the expense. The profits margin has increased tremendously.

J’ai fait des conférences vidéo multicanal dans le passé sur le MBP 2,16, mais maintenant seulement voir la “seule caméra”. Je me demande si les choses ont changé dans la mise à jour 10.4.7 ou l’une des mises à jour de sécurité depuis.

[…] This crazy modern world (la digital vida loca) gives us lots of ways to get together, without boarding an airplane… from
fancy video conferencing, to free conference calling and Skype, it’s all good. […]

I have done multiway video conferences in the past on the MBP 2.16GHz, but now only see the “single camera” icon. I wonder if this changed in the 10.4.7 update or one of the security updates since.

I have the same problem, Mike – also with a MacBook Pro 2Ghz. I’d love to hear an answer.

I have a MacBook Pro, 2GHZ. I’m trying to do a multi-video chat with two other friends. One has a MacBook, the other an iBook G4, 1.2GHZ. Any idea on why I cant seem to do a multi video chat? I was told that I had to have the camera icon next to the buudy list (which shows up) and then I was told that I had to have multiple cameras. Mine does not even have multiple cameras when viewed from another user. Any ideas? Is it a setting somewhere?

At MacWorld I asked that exact question and the staffer at the MacBook I was at said, “yes.” You can initate and host a four person (including yourself) iChat. Cool.

Marco: mm interesting. Well it says it "lets you video chat", but it still doesn't specify whether you can actually HOST it.

I attended Macworld San Francisco this year and played with this exact feature.

Using the new MacBook Pro laptops, I was able to successfully host and join a multi-person conference with ease. The most participants I could get to work was myself and two others (3 in total), but I never tried a true four person conference.
