Important Notes
This is the first alpha build of MeetCam, and demonstrates the concept. But there is a significant design issue.When a member of the space is disconnected, they will still receive every picture from your cameras (these pictures are queued on the relay servers and delivered when they connect). This creates significant problems for dialup users.
To avoid this, you should only use MeetCam when all members of the space are online together.
Also, in general, you should use the smallest practical image sizes (such as 160x120 pixels) since large images consume much more bandwidth.
