The layer of security most likely to prevent Visual Communicator from uploading a file is the
firewall that protects your computer or network from other computers outside the network.
Firewalls are designed to block certain kinds of communications, including the file transfer
protocol that Visual Communicator uses.
To upload a video file to a host on the Internet, you might have to give Visual Communicator
permission to FTP the file. No single set of steps works for all firewalls, so you need to
determine how to do this for your firewall. Give Visual Communicator permission to use Port
21. You should be able to limit this permission to individual programs rather than opening it
indiscriminately.
Talk to your network administrator or consult the documentation for your router or firewall
software.
The final video product is a compressed file called the output file. The default path for output
files is C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Visual Communicator\My
Output\My Published Videos. You can change this destination to a folder of your choice.
Click the Output tab in the media library.
In the Address bar, either browse to the desired folder or enter its path in the box.
Right-click a blank spot in the Library window and select Set Current Directory As Home
For 'Output' from the pop-up menu.
