sounds cool . does it have to be video though ? lol

DannyBoy · 08-13-2005, 12:11 PM

wow its cool there actually . it seems like the only lag is the lag of the sending of text ... which is bearable . pretty cool

**ricklepotamous** · 08-13-2005, 03:05 PM

Ya I was there but I was the only one.....I really wanna try this out. So the audio doesn't lag? You really can play together and it will line up?

audio won't line up, not for 2 people jamming together. It's not possible logistics dictate that.

because its still pretty new its only just getting going, 5 of us were in there last night and i did see splonky this morning but i was going to work so couldn't hang around!

basically its like paltalk but with video!
works well though!!!

Well that is what I figured but because of the wording of your post I thought maybe there was some kind of latency set up so that it would line up.

That is a little misleading....10 people can "jam" at once but not TOGETHER at once.

Unless you just want a ton a of random guitar all at the same time.

Still cool though to have a room to talk and maybe play some riffs for eachother. I will check it out again later.

I was thinking how cool it would be if they ever get the speeds together so that you really can jam together and not have a delay.

yeh it was worded kinda badly on reflection!

it would be very cool if they got the speed up! difficult thing really the room is hosted somewhere stateside, so in england it goes back to the states before coming back to england etc!

so it will always lag but im sure some boffin somewhere will sort it out!
just managed 8 people in there so i guess it'll pick up as word gets around!
