Video chat between galaxy tab and pc?

[Eric859]

Does anyone know of an app that can do this? Skype doesn't work and all the video chat apps I can find don't have desktop clients.

Good question I'd also like to know how people have done it...if Gtalk would only work man that would be phenomenal

Have you tried the yahoo messenger app

 

[Eric859]

I did try yahoo For some reason I couldn't get it to use the front camera. It would only use the rear camera. You would think that there would be a way to force which camera is active through a hardware setting, but I couldn't get it to work

On the screen there should be a icon to switch cameras, that's what's on my evo

what about QIK? They show something like what you're looking for on the Sprint commercial.

Found this in another forum

Clearsea works for 2 way video conferencing from my Tab to a PC.

Sign-up for a demo account here:
Desktop and Mobile Video Conferencing | Full-HD | Windows Mac OS X Android | SIP H.323 | Virtual Appliance ClearSea | Mirial

You will get a link to the PC and MAC clients and two accounts. The Android app in in the market.

Caveats: It is not really a consumer product - not sure how long the demo is good for and the 'enterprise' version is priced that way.

Yahoo does work except it doesn't use the front camera; only the rear.

When... oh when... does skype finally bring the video function (back). I loved using it with fring before they removed it.
