New Home AudioVideo container

[gerard]

We recently added a new audio+video+im container which uses the new capabilities of flash10 (namely peer2peer communications through UDP).

This container provides a much better video experience (low latency + better quality) but remains a test version and here are the known restrictions associated with it (because it uses the UDP protocol):
- In most large entreprise networks (for instance within Alcatel-Lucent), the network proxies will not allow UDP traffic between the enterprise network and Internet, this makes this container unusable from within these networks (this is also true when connected at home through your enterprise VPN);
- Some corporate computers (e.g. most ALU's notepads) will have their internal firewall configured to disable UDP traffic, this means that even at home, you need to disable or reconfigure your firewall to allow UDP traffic.

However this is still a great container to use when at home on your private/family computer because it greatly improves your video experience: check it out and let us know!

In case you experience problems not listed above, feel free to open a new subject in the "Bugs" or "Feature Requests" forum!

If you are connected to your "administration / dundal list" page from your home PC under Windows Vista, in order to be able to receive calls from the "Home AudioVideoIM container", please make sure that you configure your firewall to add your web-browser (Firefox, Chrome, or even IE) in the list of exceptions.
This can be done by doing:
Config Panel -> Firewall -> Modify Parameters then click on the Exceptions tab and make sure that your web browser (or AIR if using the DunDal Desktop) is selected.

Another alternative is to disable your firewall, but make sure that you are in a safe network environment (e.g. at home behind a NAT) before doing that, and this should only be temporary.

According to http://www.slideshare.net/stoem/matthew ... esentation the Adobe protocol (proprietary) is called RTMFP and uses UDP port 1935
