iFriends supports all popular webcam streaming formats, so that iFriends users can experience the world's best models, stars and chathosts in the format they prefer:

Our pioneering flagship webcam software, and still the most popular choice among iFriends chathosts, ifCam is iFriends' own windows-based software that runs on any Windows PC, including Win95, Win98, WindowsME, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. As lightweight as it is versatile, ifCam works wonderfully even on slower PCs and over slower chathost connections (such as dialup modem). With support for the widest base of users, from dialup users on 14.4 modems to the highest-speed iFriends users, ifCam is especially adept at providing a superb videochat experience for the millions of internet users who are still on slower connections, such as AOL dialup customers and users in other countries.

EasyCam
(LiveStream)

EasyCam was developed by iFriends as the world's only easy-to-use "download-free" webcam streaming format that requires no third-party applications to run on your PC. ("Download-Free" means that you don't have to download and install any special software ... it works from within your web browser!) If you can navigate a web page, or fill out an online form, then you can videochat using EasyCam. EasyCam is just like the name says: Easy. Even better, EasyCam is the only LiveStream hosting option that works well even if you're not using a high-speed, high-end PC over a fast internet connection. (In fact, EasyCam is the only iFriends hosting option that works reliably from large dialup ISPs, such as AOL and Earthlink/Mindpsring). Finally, EasyCam is the only iFriends hosting option that supports iFriends' new "Traffic on Tap" feature (released in late 2004). "Traffic on Tap" (also called 'CatCall') lists your videochat and fanclub not only on iFriends, but also – at your option – before millions of users of iFriends-affiliated services such as IncredibleCams.com and SizzlingCams.com. And like the name says, "Traffic on Tap" lets you turn the feature on and off at the click of your mouse. Easy! For more on EasyCam, click here.

Windows Media
(LiveStream)
   

More internet users with higher-speed internet connections use Windows Media to enjoy online entertainment than any other format. Requires that you, as a chathost, to use a moderate to high-speed PC running Windows XP or Windows 2000 PC. Windows Media-hosted live sessions also offer another advantage: All streaming-based hosting formats (EasyCam, Real Player and Windows Media) offer a "capture video" feature which enables you to create your own archive movies for use on iFriends and elsewhere. But only WindowsMedia sessions can create archive movies that can be imported directly to pay-per-view DRM/VOD websites like Pay2Play.com. (for EasyCam and RealPlayer-originated movie archives, you must first convert your movie into the Windows Media format, prior to importing to Pay2Play). To enable iFriends users to enjoy you via Windows Media Player, choose this format. click here for additional information, and instructions.

Real Player
(LiveStream)
   

While the popularity of RealPlayer is on the wane, user loyalty remains high and many iFriends users prefer it over other streaming formats. To learn more about offering your live videochat in RealPlayer format, click here.
