There are technical issues that enhance or weaken the quality of your communication. It is important to be aware of the bandwidth which your receiver is using. Slow internet connection causes problems with buffering and reduces the quality of communication. The stream will not be consistent with very low sound quality.
The computer and the webcam being used should have quality specifications as well. The CPU should be fast enough to support live calls. The webcam to be used should either be IEEE 1394/fire wire or USB 2.0 enabled. A digital video camera may replace the webcam or a fire wire converter. These are the accessories that will capture the images for broadcast.
Experts recommend that the cable being used should be six feet or more. The webcam should face the speaker during the conversation. Extra lighting is required in order to improve the quality of images being broadcast. This is mostly important when the conversation is taking place indoor.

This is a technology that allows ministries to reach out to congregations in any part of the world. The community remains one since they are in regular contact.
