How to Use Video Calling - in 3 easy steps:
|
- Optimize your
video calling experience:
- Bandwidth
requirements: minimum
128kbps downstream or
upstream. For High
Resolution, 384 kbps
downstream or upstream
bandwidth is
recommended.
- Equipment: your
camera and microphone
need to work for you to
get most out of ooVoo.
In ooVoo, go to File,
Settings, and the
configure or test your
equipment under Camera
or Audio Devices.
- Lighting: Because
cameras are less
sensitive to light than
the human eye, it is
important to have good
lighting when using
ooVoo. The most typical
cause of poor video
quality is lack of
light in your room. Try
turning on more lights,
or move to an area
where there is more
light.
- Video call
from ooVoo:
- In the Contacts
tab, you will see a
list of your friends.
They must be online to
video call them.
- You have three
options to start a
video call:
- Double click on
your friend's
picture.
- Click once on the
video call icon to
the right of the
friend's picture, or
- After you
highlight your
friend's picture,
click on the Video
Call icon at the very
bottom of ooVoo.
- Once in a Video
Call
- If your friends
have ooVoo:
- You can always
add more ooVoo
friends on video by
clicking on the
"Invite" tab in the
upper right corner
of the video call
window
- If you want to
video call with
friends who do not
yet have ooVoo:
- Click on the
Web Video Call tab,
and email or text
your Web Video Call
Link to your non-ooVoo
friends.
- After they
click on the link,
they will join your
running Video Call
from their Web
browser.
- Add Phone friends who
may not be near their
computer:
- When in a video
call, click on the
"Invite" tab, then
click on the smaller
"Phone" tab, and dial
your friends phone
number (this feature
requires one of the
ooVoo phone plans).
