1) I have a Microsoft Webcam (NX6000) and it really does seem to work better
in Messenger 8.1 Beta over 8.0 however, the ability to send Video Calls seems
to be nerfed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I have to go
through the whole setup wizard again to get it to go again.

2) Also, it only seems to work with other 8.1 users???

3) The full screen option is nice for Video Calls. Can that same option be
available for people that share webcams? (E.G. DEAF PEOPLE)

4) There should be a way to reduce the quality a little bit so we can get
higher frames per second (20 or so for sign language)

5) There should be some way to disable the advertising for children's
computers

6) If we type a name in find a contact or number and click add, it should add

Greetings,

1. When it doesn't work, what happens?
2. I've not had any problems with 8.0 and previous users. Can you describe what happens?
3. Well, you can just use Video Call and mute the sound portion. I see what you mean
though.
4. Agreed.
5. Won't happen; they're the target market. And yes, I know half the ads are for dating
sites.
6. Brilliant
