Re: [general] Need video using Wildblue
Why not have them save the video in windows movie maker or some other program and email it to you. That way you cold watch it over and over and save it for later years if you wanted to.
And Wildblue's answer to your question.

At this time, we do not transport VoIP traffic on the WildBlue network. This includes internet-based phone systems or voice connections over an instant messenger application.
The short answer is "no," you can't use internet telephony on WB (or the other satellite service, for that matter) due to the delays in the time it takes the signal to travel back and forth.

Waterford, PA | Just another reason I HATE WILDBLUE. Piece of junk. If I had DSL capability, I would tell them to go pound salt. |

said by Earth Signal :The short answer is "no," you can't use internet telephony on WB (or the other satellite service, for that matter) due to the delays in the time it takes the signal to travel back and forth. The real reason is the packet shaping employed by Wildblue which includes a DAMA scheduler and their refusal to give priority to VOIP packets. Reports have indicated that VOIP works well with some tolerable delay over Telesat, the Canadian version of Wildblue, who gives priority to VOIP packets. Since Wildblue has decided to prevent VOIP and probably live 2-way video from working, I agree with you Marykayeee: I would cancel Wildblue if I had a non-satellite option for Internet access. In the end their high price for slow speeds and limited usage may cause me to bail out even without a substitute.
