Video Chat Workaround using MeBeamSubmitted by 73h_p0W on June 26, 2009 - 5:02pm
I found a plug-in for this "problem". To be exactly it's not a true workaround. It's just a web site offering free video conferences, that made a plug-in for Pidgin. That means the site works on any system! The only problem with it is the following: It only is available for Pidgin running on Windows! Workaround: To prevent to have a standard installation, just download the executable from their site. Hopefully you got 7-ZIP on your portable device or host PC. Open up 7-ZIP and open the executable internally. There you will have only 1 folder. Go into that folder and extract the only file in there (MeBeamPlugin.dll) to "%PortableApps%\PidginPortable\App\Pidgin\plugins\". Done! From now on, follow the instructions not missing step 1 on the MeBeam site starting at step 5: Have fun with it! ( categories: )
