Festoon (formerly vSkype) 1.3.70 Beta beta
Publisher's Description:
Festoon (formerly vSkype) provides fast real-time video between you and all of your Skype contacts - up to 2.3 frames per second (fps) for anyone using a standard 56K modem, and up to 24 fps for anyone using DSL, a cable modem, or a corporate broadband connection like a T1 line. It also allows you to share display data. Any open application, or even the entire desktop, can be viewed by other participants during a vSkype Beta call. In addition, the Beta's "Add to Call" feature allows you invite other Skype contacts to your existing call. This eliminates the disruption of having to create a new call each time you would like to add new callers.
Latest Changes:
- Bug fix--Removed upgrade prompt when there's no Internet connection
- Bug fix--Added proxy support to upgrade mechanism
- Bug fix--Fixed bug where Logitech cameras wouldn't initialize
- Bug fix--Festoon no longer launches Skype during computer startup when Skype is set not to launch
- Bug fix--Can close Internet Weather dialog using close box

We use Festoon for 7 person video conferences -- and it works great. In fact, I'm not aware of any alternatives -- Skype video is always 2 people. My only complaint; it isn't integrated into Skype or GTalk particularly well -- it uses URLs to invite people to meetings.

Very good, even on dialup. My frame rates were around 14 while using with one other person, on dialup, ergo the description is wrong.
Finally something that can compete against the VidChat thingy on OSX 10.4 Tiger, on WINDOWS!
