Need some help and suggestion

[wavespirit75]

I'm actually new to this forum and also new to video conferencing field, however i'm on a project of developing a multipoint video conference system. I'm currently quite confuse of which one should i implement on the system, H323, SIP, OPAL or is there any other better one? I know that H323 has a mcu for multipoint conference, however, for H323(openh323) I'm having lot of trouble while compiling the sample given. So, I'm just wondering whether should I keep on focusing on using H323 or should i change to other, like SIP, which is easier(maybe).

Thanks for reading my post no matter you reply or not. Thank you!!

From porgramming point of view, open h.323 has too many OOB concepts,while commerical stacks are event-driven ones,they are easy to use and revise.

Comparing with commerical SIP stacks, using H.323 stacks sometimes need the source code recompied, while for sip you may just compile the event-handler you wrote and link them with commerical lib.

SIP FSM and parser's overheads are higher than that of H.323,but you don't need to understand asn.1 code.
