iChat AV tip
iChat is one of Mac OS X's best features and with the Leopard upgrade it's even better. My family use it to videoconference with my parents living overseas. However, my parents often complained about the degrading audio and video quality during our iChat sessions. On my side everything would look crystal cleal.Using the Connection Doctor, I noticed that the remote end would see degradation when my local bandwidth rises up to 500+ kbps and the remote bandwidth stays around 300+ kbps. When I set a bandwidth limit in iChat preferences to 500kbps then everything was fine. Now our iChat sessions are a much better experience.
