I presume you have the latest NetMeeting (
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/netmeeting) ? And that your camera is
recognized by NetMeeting and a picture can be viewed in NetMeeting preview
mode ( when not in a call)?

When you are in this call do you see the other party? Hear them? Do they
hear you?

Is this problem with all parties ?

First, thanks.
The answer to all your questions is yes: i have the latest netmeeting, my
camera is recognized by netmeeting and my picture can be viewed in my
netmeeting wheter i'm in a call or not. I can see the other party and hear
them. The problem is with all parties. I thought it was a problem depending
on the connection speed, but i can't understand why it works in the website.

Do the other parties hear you?
Can you see your preview picture (either in Picture in Picture view or in
the separate "My Camera" view) when in a call?
Is your camera set to automatically startup when a call starts?

I am not sure what you are saying "it works in the website" -- could you
elaborate?

broadcast your image and there it works, the other party can see me.

Since audio/video are carried on the same transport in NetMeeting there is
no firewall issue at your or the other end.

My guess is that the problem is with the setup at the other end -- either
not set to start showing video automatically or configured with the wrong
view so there is no video window. I can't think of any other situation that
would have the symptoms you describe.

Well Jmeeting seems to use a java client of some kind -- not Netmeeting so
whatever happens there is not material to what NetMeeting does,

Other parties usually receive images, mine is the only one they don't get.
It's strange. Thanks anyway.
