3.6 Handling Video Calls
Placing a Video Call
Calls made with X-Lite will work without a video camera, but a video camera is necessary to allow other parties
to see your image. X-Lite will work with most USB video cameras.
Adding Video
If you have a camera, you can add video to a call that started as an audio call.
Click Start Video (
) in the call panel. When you add video, the other party may (or may not) start sending
their video to you.
Other Party Adds Video
If the other party starts their video, your video window automatically opens and the video is played. You can
start sending your own video, if desired (and assuming you have a camera) by clicking Start Video(
) in the
call panel.
Click the down arrow and
choose Video call
From the Dashboard
From the Contact List or
History
Right-click the contact and
Choose Video Call
