With the appearance of cable Internet providers, the ADSL service, Atviras Takas service, the Internet became cheaper, and it has become possible to arrange video conferences with any place in Lithuania, which has cable Internet or phone connection.
With the appearance of technologies, allowing to arrange video conferences in Lithuania, distant learning auditoriums were equipped and broadcast was begun from Kaunas Technological University to other towns: Panevėžys, Utena, Marijampolė and etc. Ar first the NetMeeting conferencing program, which belongs to the Windows operational system, was used. Lectures were broadcast with the help of this program from a computer in KTU. Since the NetMeeting program can transmit sound and view between two points at the same time, there was an MCU (multipoint control unit) used to transmit sound and view to several distant points at the same time. Problems appeared during broadcast: the sound, view or slides would break down. This was noticed when five or more users connected. Later, KTU established an internet site, which allowed students to watch lectures in the real... [to full text]
