xmodx Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Can you confirm if the iChat collaboration features (showing photos,keynote,desktop sharing) are included in the preview?

Do I have to be talking to somone with video to play with the effects? in iChat go to Video>Show Video Effects There you'll find Sepia, Black & White, Glow, Comic Book, X-Ray, ect. All the effects are displayed on a really nice transparent flowing panel.

I found that transparent panel that you are refering too, but it only has 2 effects of witch the names arn't displayed and i can't tell the differenence between that and the regular picture.

Yipee Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Maybe the effects depend on the hardware. In particular of your video card. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24553-cant-find-video-effects-for-ichat/#findComment-165698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor19 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I can see all of the various Photo Booth style effects. Anyone find the video backdrop effects (or if they are included at all)?

Arthy Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I can't find the backdrop effects. Anyone? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24553-cant-find-video-effects-for-ichat/#findComment-166028 Share on other sites More sharing options...
iDerf2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I too only see two entries in the effects. It prolly has to do with graphics card, you're right.

I would think that might be it too, but all the effects work in photo booth, just not ichat and that doesn't make sense to me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24553-cant-find-video-effects-for-ichat/#findComment-166110 Share on other sites More sharing options...
stek1961 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 They are there, the effects window is a bit slow to respond so you mind be over-clicking. I'm on a bottom of the range G5 1.6 Steve Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24553-cant-find-video-effects-for-ichat/#findComment-166305 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Leduc Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Backdrop, iChat Theater are features that are seemingly missing. Sorry! Anyone getting them?

Kazuran Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 After some deeper research, I believe iChat theater / Backdrops have not been inluded, but Video effects work, and we are trying to get Desktop Sharing to work if it works at all.

Christian Leduc Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 It really looks like the Bdrop and Theater Effects are amiss. What a shame After all we're tough testers! If it worked on the keynote, we'll be happy still ;-) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24553-cant-find-video-effects-for-ichat/#findComment-168648 Share on other sites More sharing options...

grabberslasher Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 iChat theatre is available, but you invoke it from Quicktime, not iChat.

hirshkis Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Grabber what machine are you using? I am not having much luck. I can "invoke" iChat from within Quicktime but show no effects (lists 2 effecst but neither is a real effect) in iChat nor an option to use iChat Theater. Would someone kindly list the steps needed to get to (and use) iChat theater? Is there a Mac model requirment? For example, I am using a G4 but does it require a G5 or Intel Mac. Thanks top ayone who lists the needed steps.

Thanks top ayone who lists the needed steps. I presume it needs the high end requirements for iChat, Dual 1.42GHz G4 or G5 or higher. I'm running it on my iMac Core Duo and MacBook Pro.

macuser74 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I have Dual 2 GHz PPC G5 and I cant get ichat theater to work. I can see the option "share with ichat" thru quicktime but when I choose it nothing happens. Any thoughts?
