Does anyone know if I can fix this? :(

Especially if there's a way I can process the vids again so they would show?

audio failure

jstric — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 00:57:17 GMT

i'm using a logitech mic-pro for notebooks to chat. needless to say, the audio isn't working. i tested the microphone in the oovoo settings option and it passed, but whenever i try to call someone the audio doesn't transfer. i tried recording something to my computer and the audio worked fine, so it's definitely not a problem with the microphone itself. any help i could receive would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Josh

FOR ALL AUDIO PROBLEMS - READ THIS FIRST!

Are you ALL using headsets with mics? ooVoo recommends that all parties use a headset with a mic. The reason we recommend this is because you must separate the speaker audio from going back into your microphone. If you do not do this, you can introduce all sorts of noise and echo into the conversation. If one user is not using a headset or has it improperly configured, it can cause problems for everyone.

ooVoo has some echo cancellation built into the product. This tries to prevent speaker audio from being fed back to the mic, but it can do only so much. If the speaker audio is blaring directly into the mic, you might get a choppy audio as the echo cancellation tries (in vain) to screen out all of the echo. If you or anyone else is not using a headset with a mic, please do so.

Knowing that others in your video conversation who do not use a headset (or have it improperly calibrated) may be introducing noise, echo into the system, can help you troubleshoot this issue. To find out who is causing the problem, have each participant mute their mike in turn while you listen for the echo (Have the remaining participants speak to cause an echo). When the echo disappears - the person whose mic is muted is usually the cause. It could be multiple people. Once you have located the offender. Have them use a headset and mic and calibrate their equipment. Sometimes people plug in a headset but the system is still using their Camera mic and PC speakers. They have to tell the system that they are now using something different. You can do this below:

To Calibrate the Microphone:
Once you plug the headset in, open ooVoo and go to FILE / SETTINGS / AUDIO DEVICES - go to the microphone section and select your sound card (ie Realtech, Soundmax or SigmaTel etc…) in the "select a Microphone" dropdown. Then click "Test" and speak. When the microphone is recognized, click "Save". This should fix the problem. The audio on ooVoo should be crystal clear.

To Calibrate your Headphones:
Pls go back to FILE/SETTINGS/AUDIO DEVICES/ and select your speakers (usually your sound card - ie Realtech, Soundmax or SigmaTel). Do a "test". Do you hear the music in your ear pieces? You can adjust the volume by sliding the blue dot.

Best Regards,

Audio breaks up on call

Howdy,

I'm hoping someone can help. I just tried my first multiple party video conference call (and it didn't work so well). The call was between a user in New Zealand, and a friend here in the US. THe audio quality was fine between me and New Zealand. The audio between me and my friend here in the US only picked up every third word. Both of us were using headsets to communicate with each other. We both recalibrated our audio properties with no success. Any ideas on what to do next?

Poor Sound Quality

oovoodan — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 22:30:03 GMT

Trying out ooVoo as a replacement for Skype which has been very unstable and causing issues on our systems. Video quality is great, much better than Skype but the audio quality is very poor. Everyone sounds like they are in a tin can and very low volume level. I am using the default settings and have same results whether I use standard or high definition video. We are on broadband cable on both ends and have had same results with numerous different callers. Signal quality meter shows very high so it doesn't appear to be a bandwidth issue.

Are there any settings or anything that can be done to improve the audio quality? We are planning to get the paid version to get rid of ads but if we can't improve the sound quality we won't be albe to use it.

Thanks,

I'm sure my speakers work fine because i can hear other things on my computer such as videos. And I have no trouble seeing others but i cant hear them at all and the microphone sounds go up but I cant hear them :[
