- Hello everyone,
-
- I do apologize for the lack of proper documentation. For now this short
- "instructions pamphlet" will have to do.
-
- In order to use CU-SeeMe one has to connect to what are called reflectors.
- These machines will "reflect" audio/video traffic to all the CU-SeeMe
- clients that request it. For a list of some public reflectors see the
- file "reflectors.txt".
-
- If you start Amiga CU-SeeMe with no arguments you will get a dialog window
- that will expect you to enter a user name and a target reflector IP address.
- Once you enter these, click on connect. If the reflector responds, you will
- start to see feed names appearing on the "Transmitters" listview on the left
- of the control panel window and reveiver names on the "Receivers" listview
- on the right. The first transmitters will automatically become the active
- feed. If you want to select another on click on its name in the "Transmitters"
- listview. During feed changes be patient. Due to the nature of CU-SeeMe
- feed changes may take a couple of seconds to be observable. Note that it is
- normal for you not to see yourself in the "Receivers" list.
-
- You can control the brightness and the contrast of the incoming video using
- the corresponding sliders. The volume slider is currently non-functional.
-
- The only other gadgets are in the video window and are labeled "M" and "P". The
- "M" stands for "Magnify" and the "P" stands for "Panel". Toggling "M" will
- change the video display between the 1x1 and the 2x2 displays. Toggling "P"
- will open and close the control panel.
-
- To quit click on the close gadget of either the video or the control window.
-
- Good luck.
