Ask HN: Are the high quality alternatives to Zoom?
1 point by count on Dec 20, 2020 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Is anybody building or built high quality alternatives (full HD, full sound, etc.) for video conferencing? Zoom, without bandwidth adjusting limitations/etc. from running 'broadly usable' service?



Seems very niche -- you quickly leave the Zoom/Teams space and enter broadcast production.

Have a look at vmix [1]. That is broadcast production, and they offer a service called VMIX call [2].

There is a limit up to 8 callers in the Pro version.

You might want to look at the review of the Facebook Portal by Farhad Manjoo and Mike Isaac in NY Times (November 2018).

It seems to make conversation between two people more natural.

I hope others will comment here on features that might improve the "sociability" of meetings via zoom-like applications.
