VideoWhisper Video Consultation component for Joomla provides an advanced interface for creating and managing consultation rooms.
Rooms can be created, edited, deleted with multiple options, including resolution and framerate, bandwidth, usage limitations like credits that can be assigned for custom durations (daily, monthly).
This could be used for setting up paid services (offer video consultation rooms to trainers, doctors, lawyers, financial advisers, teachers, communities).
Includes JomSocial groups support for setting user permissions.
Here is a list of settings that can be configured for each room:
