It was all my idea to begin with, so I have no one to blame but myself. I got this brilliant idea to host Christmas here at my house so that the Indiana family could share Christmas with the out of state family by having a webcam Christmas.
Such a simple idea, no?
That's right. NO.
My sister and I have been working for about 3 weeks now to get our webcams to work WHILE the microphone works. That way we don't have to have a pantomime Christmas.
It has nearly exhausted us both. We are both college educated people, but CLEARLY that does not make us smart. She's a lot smarter than I am - and a billion times more patient. We had success just now with sound AND video - for one brief shining millisecond. Most of the time, we only have video...
She's still not giving up - but we might have to start practicing exaggerated reactions anyway. Gives new meaning to Silent Night, doesn't it?

Let me know how I can help. If I can.
What a creative idea...Isn't technology just wonderful (when it works)?
Chris - we will definitely let you know if we get stuck. Or more stuck. However that goes. I appreciate your help so far. I was too stupid to know what an IP address before that!
