Can I share video hosted on picasa during a video conference call?

Hi all, during some tests with tokbox I have been trying to share a video posted on my picasa account while placing a video call with two other pals. The client returned an error like "Bad Url" or something. Any idea? Can I share video using picasa?

Thanks a lot for your support.
All the best
D.

I’m sad

Hi,

I would need a link to the specific url in question & it might be an issue with the fact that we play "pictures" only for Picasa.

Note: URLS that aren't public wouldn't play (would check this option).

Hi Damon,

Thank you for your feedback.

I think this answers the question. The links I've been trying to share were all not public. Is there any way to make them available as well? In the end those links are just links.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Sharing Video is going to require a lot of bandwidth, when viewing video on the web it is buffered but when you have a live link no buffering so adding video on top of the link will seriously stress your link.

Hey Dario,

Currently we aren't able to support video links from Picasa. However, if you are able to get that video over to YouTube you can surely share that content. I know its a glitch, hopefully we can get it taken care of soon. Stay tuned :)

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your feedback. It is not urgent of course. Probably other things, like recording conversations, are. By the way, do you know if I can publish videos with YouTube while keeping them private as I was able to do with Picasa and still being able to share them with TokBox during a conference call?

Thanks again for your feedback.

Hey Dario,

Unfortunately, I do not believe YouTube allows you to upload private content. We are however considering allowing Tokbox users the ability to upload private content, so please stay tuned :)
