vSkype description
Festoon provides fast real-time video between you and all of your Skype contacts
Festoon provides fast real-time video between you and all of your Skype contacts - up to 2.3 frames per second (fps) for anyone using a standard 56K modem, and up to 24 fps for anyone using DSL, a cable modem, or a corporate broadband connection like a T1 line. Festoon is very easy to use.
Festoon also allows you to share display data. Any open application, or even the entire desktop, can be viewed by other participants during
a vSkype Beta call.
In addition, Festoon's "Add to Call" feature allows you invite other Skype contacts to your existing call. This eliminates the disruption of having to create a new call each time you would like to add new callers.
With Festoon it is possible for up to 200 people to participate in a single call or meeting without degrading overall performance. All those people can broadcast video at the same time, if they choose, and each participant can view any 8 people at a given time.
