ClearPhoneProPPC 6.0 can receive and make calls and transfer files from behind firewalls that use programable NAT tables (like IPNetrouter). You can now send/receive and broadcast LIVE TV shows from behind your corporate firewall in addition to direct viewing of incoming "TV broadcast audio/video streaming". Since ClearPhoneProPPC version 6.0 follows "Internet Config" file mappings which are now a part of your operating system (8.6), you can open almost any file format on your MAC under ClearPhoneProPPC. One of the most useful new features of ClearPhoneProPPC 6.0 is that it allows viewing, sending, and receiving files between computers during ClearPhone Conference calls, using Apple's or Internet Explorer's personal WEB sharing (even from behind firewalls). When you are calling from a modem on a dynamic IP, ClearPhone knows your IP address and provides a seamless connection between each ClearPhone (Mac or Windows user) that allows them to share desired files, view each others hard disk, and internal WEB pages, depending on local file sharing permissions. ClearPhoneProPPC 6.0 allows file transfers between MACs and PCs even while using ClearPhonePro video conferencing between multiple users. As with all versions of ClearPhone, you will always see Smooth networking that allows for perfect transmissions all the time no matter how many things you are doing on your computer at the same time!

Now for the first time you can video conference between two MAC's using video and audio via the Local networks or via the Internet at video speeds up to 30 frames per second using the just released ClearPhone Pro 5.
When conferencing, using the just released ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 over a local network or via fast Internet connections with sufficient data bandwidth ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 will deliver Hi Fidelity audio and for the first time high resolution fast video equal to or exceeding the quality of broadcast TV at frame rates of 30 frames per second (broadcast standard rate) !
Observed for the first time at Engineering Consulting (home of ClearPhone) today during a conference transmission between a 6500 -225 Mhz desktop computer and a 3400 powerbook over 10 base T Ethernet real time 30 Frames per second video and audio of exceptional quality was observed. A digitizer and receive frame size of 320x240 pixels was used. Until now to accomplish this feat required substantial expensive hardware video codex processors costing thousands of dollars!
Using a Macintosh computer and the ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 video conferencing software, Engineering Consulting today has accomplished the computer equilavent of breaking the sound barrier for the first time or flying solo across the Atlantic!
The "ClearPhone Pro 5" program combines the superior performance capability of the Macintosh computer and the latest Apple Quicktime 3.0 video technology to provide this breakthrough speed.
Engineering Consulting has released "ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3" demo as a 30 day trial which can be registered (purchased on line) at any time ($99.95 US) by those wishing to conference past the 30 day trail period. During the development phase free updates will be supplied to registered users until the final product is released.
The high speed video transmission has been acheived using several Model MAC's including the G3, 6500, 1400, and 3400. It appears that processor speeds of 200Mhz will easily support the 30 frames per second transfer rate while slower MACs will transfer at somewhat slower video refresh rates.
Video & Hi-Fidelity audio sets a new standard in video conferencing for the first time providing high speed delivery of real time TV broadcast and group conferencing over the Internet and local networks.
Engineering Consulting is pleased to announce the Preview release of ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3. featuring the new Hi-speed video send capability "SynchroMotion which enables your MAC to send and receive simultaneous high speed Hi resolution video and Hi-Fidelity audio. All your MAC needs is OS-8 (or 8.1), Quicktime 3.0, an A/V card and a video camera or a Quickcam. *Slower 040 Macs can send and receive the high speed SynchroMotion video and Hi Fi audio while sending standard quality ClearPhone audio at the same time.
The Preview release of ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 for the first time provides high speed video and simultaneous Hi-fi audio transmission capability to ClearPhone the worlds most advanced video conferencing program. SynchroMotion high speed video can be used by MACs via modem or when using high speed data connections and SynchroMotion transmissions are compatible with and can be received by earlier ClearPhone 4.x.x versions. The SynchroMotion video frame transmission rate is adjustable from a few seconds between frames to a smooth full motion 8 frames per/second.
As the available network bandwidth varies, the video frame transmission rate will adjust and synchronize as it attempts to reach your pre-selected frame send rate based on the available bandwidth and connection speed between callers. If you have a high speed internet, ethernet or Appletalk connection, the video motion will appear as live full motion color (hi-Res) video updating in real time accompanied by hi-fidelity audio. Full motion video has not been available in previous versions of ClearPhone until now.
As the network connections between ClearPhone callers varies in the amount of available bandwidth and data transmission speed, SynchroMotion Video and Hi Fi audio automatically adjusts to the video refresh rate that your connection will allow while maintaining the quality of the audio and video to be transferred which is always received as originally sent, without any data loss that can cause dropouts and poor received quality with other video conferencing programs.
The high speed SynchroMotion video transfers will always attain maximum video frame refresh speeds over Appletalk or Ethernet between two or more MACs in group conferences. Now for the first time, using ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 you can send live full motion TV broadcast direct point-to point even during a multi-connect or local network evnironment. No reflectors or Servers are required! It is even possible to converse with callers with full motion video via the Internet and Local networks at the same time in round table group conferencing. Now real time conferencing and meetings with smooth flowing video and Hi fidelity audio is possible over any network!
A new high speed video capture method has been developed for ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 that eliminates problems that previously caused video card incompatibilites with various MAC hardware video configurations. This hardware problems with past versions when sending video have been eliminated. Now all video component digitizers will function in the most efficient manner at much high video capsure speeds. At the same time we have acheived a reduced processor load which means you can still use other internet and network applications while sending high speed video and Hi fi audio!
ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 is available from Engineering Consulting for $99.95 and it can be purchased as an upgrade by any registered user of ClearPhone 4.x.x for $29.95 per registration. ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 is available for immediate demo trials, even if you have tried a previous version of ClearPhone that may have expired.
Registered ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3 users will receive Free updates until this Preview version becomes final. An entirely new user interface and many new features are planned for the final release that will enhance the already spectacular audio and video capability demonstrated in the Preview release of ClearPhoneProPPC 5.3.

Worldwide sales and distribution of Clearphone will be promoted by Apple as part of a software "Bundle". The ClearPhone program along with several other popular new programs will be sold by Apple! Direct worldwide sales of the ClearPhone program will still be handled by Engineering Consulting directly via the Internet and through other sales and distribution channels. We are very proud to have been chosen by Apple and those educational institutions who participated in the field testing of Clearphone during the software evaluation phase.
Projected sales of the Apple program bundle should be substantial with many thousands of new Clearphone users getting online soon! These new users will be listed on the main user PUB as they activate the ClearPhone program for the first time. A private (access code protected) PUB for Apple has been set up for the exclusive use of the schools who will also use all of the public ClearPhone PUBs.
Thank you,
