Comparison between Facebook Video Call and Google Plus Hangout Extra - video tutorial

Hi friends, in today's tutorial we will talk about video chat. Specifically a video to compare the audio quality and features of Facebook Video Call with Google Plus Hangout. Both social networks, Google Plus and Facebook both allow us to do audio and video chat with loved ones. Some may prefer Facebook Video Call for simplicity while others may prefer Google Plus Hangout for complexity and multiple functions that it has.
What does Facebook Video Call?
- to hear each other from the end of the wire using a microphone
- see each other at the end of the wire using a webcam
- to minimize or maximize the window in which we see the one we are talking to
- to choose the webcam we want to use for conversation if we have more than one webcam connected to PC
What does Google Plus Hangout?
- activating or deactivating the microphone just before starting the video conference, which means that we can enter the conference either just by conversing vocally using a microphone or entering the conversation using only text chat and webcam for video
- we can invite more people in the video chat turning it into a video conference
- we can opt for Hangout Extra which means that we will have some extra functions. By choosing to use Hangout Extra we will not be charged and no fees will be charged. both Simple Hangout and Hangout Extra are free (currently)
- we can activate or deactivate the web cam and the microphone at any time during the conversation without interrupting the conversation
- during the video and audio conversation we can also use the text chat
- we can invite chat participants to watch a YouTube video with you. They will see in real time exactly what the person who started playing a YouTube video is seeing. This means that if the person who invites you to watch the video will scroll the clip, the participants will see the clip exactly from the minute it unfolded, they all see the same sequence at the same time.
- if you choose to use Hangout Extra, you will have all the options mentioned above plus the ability to share (show) the participants' desktop, either the entire desktop or just a portion or a window of it.
- you can work on the same document from google docs all at the same time, it will be displayed in real time what text each participant adds to this document.
- you can draw a sketch in which those you talk to can participate in real time, they can add elements to the drawing and you will see them in real time
- for both Hangout Extra and Simple Hangout, if you no longer enjoy listening to one of the participants, you can mute it (just for you, the others will still hear it)
Video and Audio Quality:
Both services have about the same audio quality video, I encountered no problem in this respect, nor with Google Plus Hangout, nor with Facebook Video Call.
Options that I would have liked to have them in both services:
- a log for the chat made, how many participated in the hangout, at what time, how long the hangout lasted
- the possibility to make a small transfer of files, documents, pictures, music
- the possibility to block a hangout participant, this should be possible at least, only for the one who initialized the hangout
- a slider for adjusting the volume of sound independent of that of the operating system would have been very useful, to have an effect only on the sound in the Hangout.
You what options you would like to be implemented in Google Hangout or Facebook Video Call? Do not hesitate to answer in the comment field. That being said I invite you to watch the video tutorial to see exactly what functions we have in Facebook and Google Plus Hangout video call.

      Good day ...

      You are right about the OOVOO service, it is very good, but it is not used by Romanians, although it has the possibility of use in Romanian as far as I know ... it is the same with the ALONIA service, 100% Romanian, but also unused. What I would like to propose to the administrators of Videotutorial is a presentation of the HaBi Page Social Network, a new network, made by Romanians. Related to today's topic, HaBi Page has an impeccable video chat based on the banal and indispensable flash player from Adobe. Try it and you will be convinced of that ...
