Answers:


HARDWARE
1. Webcam does not function.
Check if the webcam is connected to the PC and if the drivers are updated.
Please verify that the hardware is selected then follow this procedure:
  • Run Client Configurator
  • Choose "audio/video device configuration": In this window, you will have three sections; the first one is for video configuration. Select the hardware you would like to use, and click "TEST" to verify if it is working properly

2. Why is it displaying "NO VIDEO" on easymeeting™'s Client Interface?
Remove the user from the channel, wait for a second, and then replace the user on the channel;
You may be using a proxy that is blocking the audio/video traffic. In this case, we recommend you to pass to HTTP/WEB connection mode by following this procedure:
  • Run Client Configurator
  • Choose "basic setup"
  • Modify settings in the "MODE WEB" section.

up ▲

3. Why is the video window in white while on easymeeting™'s Client Interface?
It is an audio/video traffic problem; to solve it, open UDP 60000 and TCP 8010 ports on firewall.
In alternative, you can pass to HTTP/WEB connection mode, following this procedure:
  • Run Client Configurator
  • Choose "basic setup"
  • Modify settings in the "MODE WEB" section.

4. Why do I have audio but no video?
If the audio is working, please check the webcam's video settings in the client configurator.

5. Why is the microphone not working?
Check if the mic has been connected and turned on.
Please verify that the hardware is selected by following this procedure:
  • Run Client Configurator
  • Choose "audio/video device configuration". In this window, you will have three sections; the first one is for video configuration. Select the hardware you would like to use, and click "TEST" to verify if it is working properly. The same can be done for audio.

6. Why is the webcam/camera not working?
Please check if another process/application may be using the video device. Please close the related process/application and run the easymeeting™ Client. If you still have problem, check that the hardware has been properly installed.
up ▲

7. Why do I have a lot of background noise?
  • Please check if the microphone hardware has been selected. Please open the PREVIEW, right click on it, select audio configuration and select if the microphone to be used is whether Internal OR External Mic.

up ▲

VIDEO
8. Why is the video buffering?
  • From the task manager, please check the cpu % of utilisation. If it is more than 70% then there are too many programs running, or the PC does not have the minimum easymeeting™'s hardware requirements.
  • If you are using MODE WEB, the problem could be caused by the proxy's work: check if UDP and TCP ports are open for a better performance;
  • In low bandwidth circumstances please use a lower conference quality from (low/mid/high) options; and/or less full-duplex channels for better quality video conferencing;
  • If the problem persists, please restart your PC.
up ▲

AUDIO
9. Why do I have echo?
One of the users activated on the Full-Duplex channel may be not using the earphones or may be using external mic. To fix the problem all users have to be provided with earphones and activate echo cancellation mode software integrated.
up ▲

SENDING/RECEIVING FILES
10. Why is the sending file process so slow?
The causes could be different: either the bandwidth connectivity is too low or the file size is too big. Please send lighter files, for example like the files it’s used to send by email attachment (around 2-3 Mb max). Possible solutions:
  • Interrupt the sending process and send the file again.
  • Change the virtual room parameters: decrease the audio/video quality and increase the data casting's bandwidth by using easymeeting™ scheduler
  • Remove some of the active users from their Full-Duplex channel in order to leave more bandwidth for the data casting;
  • Send the file by email. Save it in the easymeeting™ download folder and synchronize it for all users.
up ▲

11. Why is the received file been opened in a window out of easymeeting™ Document Window?
If using Windows XP, please follow the procedure:

  • Select PPT format
  • Click on "Advanced"
  • Deselect "confirm file opening after download"
  • Select "browse in the same folder"
  • Click "Ok"
Follow this procedure for each format file you’d like to use in easymeeting™
  • For a correct use, Microsoft Office suite should be installed on each PC - Open Office and Powerpoint's viewer are not currently supported;
  • If you send an Ms Office file, please check that other Ms Office windows are not opened. If so, please close them and open the file into easymeeting™ Document Window (i.e., you receive a Word file in easymeeting™ while other Word files are opened on your PC. You close all Word files and you open the received Word file in easymeeting™);
  • If the problem persists, try to stop the process running (via Task Manager) and/or restart the PC.
  • Please use Microsoft fix it to solve this issue depending on the version of the Microsoft office version: Click here for Office 2007; Click here for Office 2010.
  • Please close the easymeeting™ Client before running Ms fix it and restart the PC.
