Thanks to everyone who came out to see VSee telemedicine video conferencing solutions at this year’s ATA 2014 expo. We had a great exhibition with an overwhelming show of interest in our eVisit products for online video doctor visits. Our only disappointment was that our favorite video conferencing competitor, Vidyo (which also provides great quality video), decided to change booths at the last minute from their original booth space #2414 right next to ours to #3413 way out yonder on the ATA show floor wilderness. We were looking forward to our usual friendly rivalry at this year’s ATA exhibition, but I guess they were feeling shy – oh well, maybe next year ?

Polycom, Cisco, LifeSize, Vidyo vs. VSee
- Video conferencing Make meetings more personal and encourage teamwork when you virtually meet face-to-face. Meet in any situation, whether you’re calling one-on-one, delivering a sales pitch, hosting a team training, or running a company-wide town hall.
- Video conferencing equipment enables you to set up a live video conference with your colleagues or clients at remote sites; eliminating the need to travel to remote sites. Video conferencing equipment can be of the following types: Conference Management and Scheduling, Media Servers and Conference Platforms, Recording, Streaming and Content.
Other than Vidyo, the usual suspects were also out on the ATA show floor strutting their stuff — Polycom, Cisco (Tandberg), LifeSize. Since we get quite a few questions about what makes VSee telemedicine video different from these other guys, I thought it might be a good time to give a bird’s eye view of the differences.
A: Video conferencing is an engaging, highly interactive way to meet face-to-face with colleagues, partners and customers without the need to travel. Participants can join these online meetings using a variety of devices with built-in cameras, including desktop, mobile and video systems.
Polycom, Cisco, and LifeSize provide legacy video conferencing systems (a.k.a. traditional video conferencing systems). This requires purchasing expensive hardware. It also requires dedicated infrastructure which is complicated to set up and expensive to maintain. Both of these make expanding telemedicine endpoints pricey and difficult. The good thing about such systems is because video is running on the system’s dedicated hardware you can expect standardized video and audio quality.
Vidyo is a little different from Polycom, Cisco, and LifeSize in that it’s a software solution, so it’s cheaper because you’re not required to purchase as much fancy hardware equipment. However, it still requires dedicated infrastructure which translates into expensive servers to maintain and extra servers to purchase when you want to scale up.

What Makes VSee Different
VSee video platform is a very different beast from these legacy video conferencing systems. Like Vidyo, it is a software-based video platform, but that’s where the similarities end. Unlike Vidyo (and everyone else) VSee uses a peer-to-peer structure which eliminates the need for a dedicated infrastructure. Instead, of routing video streams through expensive dedicated servers and network, VSee uses a directory server to look up the endpoints which want to talk to each other. Video is then streamed directly from endpoint to endpoint over a regular network, so all you need is a computer with a webcam, mic, and Internet connection running the VSee app.
This and VSee’s low bandwidth consumption makes it very simple for doctors to connect to patients virtually anywhere in the world, especially in remote and rural areas. Buy age of mythology for mac. The downside of this simplicity is less predictability with video and audio quality since you may not know what kind of network or computer endpoint is being used. Also see this more comprehensive list of features that make VSee video chat ideal for telemedicine.
So in a nutshell:
Legacy Pros
- standardized video and audio quality
- compatible with other legacy video conferencing systems
Legacy Cons
- expensive hardware to purchase andmaintain
- complex infrastructure to set up
- expensive and complicated to scale up

VSee Pros
- extremely simple to deploy and scale (since no infrastructure to set up)
- low bandwidth allows connection to rural and network-challenged areas
- less expensive than traditional video conferencing systems
VSee Cons
- video and audio quality dependent on network and user device
- not compatible with legacy video conferencing endpoints

Troubleshooting Checklist
Please perform the suggestions in this checklist prior to calling Technical Support. It is quite possible that your issue may be resolved by checking these items.

This Troubleshooting Checklist is also located in the Tandberg Data Support Knowledge Base.
Clean your tape drive.
Simply cleaning your tape drives on a regular basis will often solve issues with writing or reading data. More information on how and when to clean your drives can be found in the Knowledge Base under Do I need to clean my tape drive?
Update your device firmware.
By using the latest released firmware in your tape drives, autoloaders and libraries, you will avoid any problems in older firmware versions which may have already been fixed.
Check your bus configuration and cables.
Improper bus configuration or bad cables are by far the most likely culprits when facing issues such as:
- Devices not being seen in the operating system.
- Intermittent or unexpected 'I/O' errors.
- Losing communication with a tape drive during backup.
- Event ID 9 or 11 errors in Windows operating systems.
- Unexpected bus resets.
- Parity errors.
Check your Operating System and backup application configuration.
- Check if your backup application supports your tape drive, autoloader, or library. It may be necessary to install device support patches from your application vendor. Check the vendor's website for details about your specific configuration.
- Check if the appropriate driver is loaded for your bus controller. Refer to the installation instructions for your controller.
- Check if the appropriate driver is loaded for your Tandberg Data tape drive. Windows drivers for Tandberg Data products are provided primarily for use with the Microsoft native backup application. Do not install the generic Windows drivers if you are using a third-party backup application, unless directed to do so in the application installation instructions.
- Check the Tandberg Data Knowledge Base for integration tips on various operating systems such as Solaris, Linux, AIX and more.
Try a new tape.
A worn or damaged tape may result in write or read failures. Keep track of which tapes fail during write or read. If you notice that a particular tape has failed more than once, mark that tape as questionable and do not use it for critical backups.
Run an Internal Self Test.

An Internal Self Test performs a series of tests designed to eliminate all outside factors and determine if the drive is functional. The test does not use software or operating system drivers, does not write data from the server and does not access the SCSI bus when testing the drive.

Drives that pass the Internal Self Test are deemed to be functioning properly.
