[buug] Berk InstFest Talks Potluck- 2) Please RSVP %

[PR]

Gxine is the other client that supports streaming media. Real Networks, 
or know as .rm files, are good but in the end someone needs to set up a 
streaming media server period and have good upload speeds, which also 
might mean not good quality image, decent but smaller since speed may be 
an issue. maybe 320x460 or something smaller to window.
