ooVoo Forums

I am visiting Scotland to be with my grandchildren for the summer holidays.

Back in Singapore, the extended family clan plans a gathering to mark the 210 birthday of our patriach Mr Tan Tock Seng.

We have more than 1200 members on our family tree database:

More than 120 attended the week long activities, beginning with a big dinner.

I had the forsight to plan attending by ooVoo!: Me on my MacBook (Mac)
At the dinner I got one of them to run ooVoo on his computer: (PC)

Me from glasgow, one family member from Australia and one from USA joined in:

Audio/video was good where there was fast internet connection:
the one that had a slower connection had patchy audio/vidio

The other two family members attended for 1 hour then had to go to work/ go to bed.

It was 1 pm for me in UK so I could stay for 4 hours and I did.

Several of the diners came to chat with me.

All in all it was AMAZING:
thanks ooVoo!

Hi limsumin

I work in marketing at ooVoo and was so pleased to read your post. Wow! Simply amazing -- and exactly what we love about ooVoo: connecting friends and family from around the world so they can see and "be" with each other. I'd love to know more about your reunion. Did the person on the PC record any of it? Our new Mac version is coming out in the next couple of weeks and that version will have recording of video calls just as the PC version does today.

If you want to add me to your contact list, feel free to ooVoo me. My ooVoo ID is: oovooLisa

Best,

Lisa

 

 

 

Lisa, yes I believe that some footage was recorded of the ooVoo video link on a PC by Darrell the Mac Beta version has a record function now since we are now connected, does this forum have an email alert when replies are posted to one's messages? Su Min

Hi Su, yes, there is an option to see replies to your posts. If you click on the "Options" tab of the post (before you send it) one of the options is "Email me replies to this post."

I have a wmv file 20MB of that meeting : do you want to see it?

Would love to - thanks Lim. My ooVoo ID is philiprobertson, once you add me as a contact we'll be able to exchange files of upto 25mb so we should be able to transfer the file once we connect on ooVoo.

See you you soon.

Thanks,

Philip
