Communications limited to Bluetooth range and bandwidth.
Wireless communication links are subject to interference and data loss. This app utilizes an adaptive streaming video algorithm to continuously adjust video quality and bandwidth based on the current condition of the Bluetooth channel. If you are experiencing wireless interference, turn off Bluetooth under General Settings to disconnect your phone from all other Bluetooth connections (e.g., headsets, computers, automobile entertainment systems) and then relaunch the app. Bluetooth and WiFi overlap wireless frequencies; using this app when the phone's WiFi is turned off will generally result in better performance, i.e., higher video framerate and less latency.
All versions of Bluetooth Video Chat can interoperate and video chat with one another. Both users must be running version 1.1+ in order to draw together. "Draw N/A" message means you did not receive a Draw Mode capability broadcast notification from the other phone you are connected to. Please update to Bluetooth Video Chat version 1.1+ on all phones.
The slider bar changes the quality of the video transmitted. The frames per second (fps) transmitted is reported on the screen. This value is affected by multiple factors, including the quality you set, the CPU speed of your device model, the quality setting of the person you are chatting with, and the dynamic condition of the Bluetooth channel you are chatting over.
Please check out "FCW Video Camcorder" and "Anonymovie" app to record videos with your face automatically blocked out and voice disguised. Both by the same publisher.
